Hello,

I have a D180 and, since i had to work on the wings, i decided to install fuel level sender in the tanks. I installed 2 VDO resistive tubular sender which have a ground connection and a signal one. I connected the signal to pin 20 and 21. I set the fuel level indicator to yes and now i can see the 2 tanks on the EMS part of the D180, but when i want to calibrate the values are not changing...

I moved the level senders and nothing is changing in terms of value. I tested both sender and they are ok (ohms value is changing). I checked the value between ground and signal and it is 0v... Please let me know what i am supposed to do as i am lost now :( ...

Thanks a lot

PS: a french man trying to write n english so please forgive me if it is not "perfect" ;-)

Well, you can call me stupid... As i don't like when things don't di the job as they are supposed to i decided to do all the mounting process all over again and guess what, i connected the sender to the wrong pins... Now i have values that looks and act "normal" so i will calibrate it and things should work fine...

When you don't have brain you do things twice  :D
