Flex fuel temp sensor error

Post by Corey872 »

Had a run of cold temps a few weeks ago and I suspect my fuel temp was below freezing. Looked at my fuel temp readout a couple of times and it was showing something like "383ºF". Sorry I did not get a datalog, or remember the actual temp. ...but it was obviously some type of error with the readout showing well over 350ºF.

Now that things have warmed back up in the 70's the reading is as expected.

Any thoughts if this is a limit of the sensor? or possibly a Kmanager bug ...ie possibly not handling 'negative' fuel temps (maybe less than 32F / 0C) correctly? Would be nice if it could read down to -20 or -30F ...that way it would only blank out on the colder days of the year.

I'll look at it. The fuel temperature is not used by the ECU.

There was a conversion bug when then fuel temperature was below freezing. I've fixed this for the next release.
