5. Series connection
2) Operation
A. The fuel level sender (3) sends a signal to the main electronic control box (2).
B. The main electronic control box (2) calculates the number of bars to be displayed and sends the information to the
fuel level gauge (4) via the series connection (5).
C. When only one bar is displayed on the fuel level gauge (4), the message “LOW FUEL” appears on the instrument
panel control screen (1) and the audible warning device sounds.
