CDL3 Fuel Comp

[Carlos Iglesias]

I've setup a CDL3, and I had the Fuel Comp generating data. After a wiring issue due to a faulty AV1 (Fuel Level) connector, the Fuel Comp disappeared. I reloaded the standard templates with no-joy. How do I pull Fuel Comp back into a template?

Cheers, Carlos

Do you mean Fuel COMPensation, or Fuel COMPosition (Alcohol percentage). What ECU are you connected to? What templates were you using?

Can you share your CDL3 Configuration?

Thanks for the lickety-split response, David. Mea culpa for the short explanation. I meant Fuel Composition (E%).

My rig is an M130, CDL3 (vers. 160Z), LTC, and a Keypad. CDL3's Setup:

M1_General_0x650

"Fuel Composition" is found in the CAN template M1_General_0x670_Version 1

You might want to check that the channel is "ticked" to be available in the CDL3. Monitor Channels in the Dash Manager would help. If the value received is correct, then look at your display, or check to see where else that channel is used. If the value isn't being received from the M1 -- then I would use M1 Tune to make sure there is no sensor fault, and see if it reads the value correctly with M1 Tune connected.

"Murphy" isn't going to give it up easy on this one... giving me the big FU !!

All of the M1_General_0x670_Version 1 Received Channela indicate "Channel Not Found"
I tried to edit the Channels, but again, I couldn't find hide-nor-hare of Fuel Composition (FC) frrd from the M1.
FC does not show up in [url]Monitor[/url]. I have no other communication issues.

The M130 displays the Fuel Composition sensor, calibration, resource, settings, and reading without warnings or errors.

The most annoying part about this is that it was displaying correctly in the CDL just a week ago. To the best of my recollection, I've backtracked all the steps I took since then... with no joy. Hope the old salts of this group can help!

Install one of the newer dash managers (like C125 Dash Manager), this will update the global channel list.
