Operating principle
On new generation vehicles, which are normally equipped with trip
computer, the PETROL indicator is not up-dated as in the previous
systems that just considered the indication given by the float
inside the tank, but it is now the actual computer that calculates
the consumption and commands the indicator on the dashboard,
consequently reducing the fuel level based on the kilometers driven
and on the driving conditions.
When the vehicle runs on GAS, even if the amount of petrol in the tank
does not drop, the trip computer still reduces the PETROL level and
it is impossible to read the correct level in the tank. The tank level
indicator is up-dated and corrected only after topping-up with fuel.
By installing the AEB392 emulator, when the vehicle runs on GAS, the
trip computer reduces the petrol level in the tank, but the emulator
restores the correct PETROL level each time the vehicle is started.
