What is fuel gauge calibration?
If fuel gauge recalibration is needed, the red LED on a calibrating charger will flash upon insertion of the battery. This provides feedback on the accuracy of the fuel gauge and avoids unnecessary calibration cycles. The user can either calibrate the fuel gauge and charge the battery, or just charge the battery.
What is calibration of gas detector?
A calibration of gas detectors is done using an internal menu within the gas detector. This requires an exact blend of calibration gas to re-establish accuracy of the sensor or sensors of the gas detector. Calibration of gas detectors ensures the gas detector works accurately.
What should I do if my Hyundai fuel gauge is wrong?
If you encounter a Hyundai Fuel gauge readings wrong or erratic condition on the vehicles listed below or find any of the following trouble codes: P0461, P0462, P0463, B1562, perform the tests shown below. What causes erratic fuel gauge readings or wrong fuel gauge readings?
How does the fuel gauge work in a car?
The fuel gauge in your automobile indicates the amount of fuel that remains in the gas tank. Some fuel gauges have an analog display while others have a digital or liquid crystal display. Electronic and software malfunctions may cause the fuel gauge in your automobile to inaccurately measure or display the amount of fuel remaining in the gas tank.
How do you adjust the fuel gauge sender?
If you are less than 20 Ohms on the full side you need to bend the tab flatter which will stop the arm sooner. If you are greated than 20 Ohms you bend the tab up letting the arm travel a bit more before stopping. Same for the empty. Finally, its been suggested you bend the arm as a fix.
Are there any additional calibration requirements for a Hyundai?
It does not include occupant classification systems (OCS), steering angle sensors, battery disconnects, or other calibrations/initializations required, when not related directly to ADAS. Let’s take a look at what additional items may require calibrations/initializations on Hyundai vehicles.

What happens when your gas gauge is not working?
The gas gauge tells you how much fuel is in your gas tank and alerts you when it’s time to refuel. If your gas gauge is not working, the inaccurate information it provides may cause you to run out of gas unexpectedly.
How does the resistance of a gas gauge change?
The fuel float contacts run on a potentiometer, or variable resistor, whose resistance changes depending on float level, effecting a change in output voltage. Some systems are wired so that high fuel level contacts the low-resistance section, gradually increasing resistance as fuel level drops.
