Morning all

Question on my OBC

Got it all set up and running fine- however I cant get the range to sort itself out

It came from a 325 and is installed in a 325, but when the tank is about 1/4 full the range shows as ---- or zero.

I've run it down and filled it up etc- still no joy

Any ideas?

Stu

n.b. MPG etc looks ok

I did look but couldnt find an answer....

Not a specific one anyway

The Wiki is good but it doesnt answer specifics like this?
