    OBC fuel remaining help.

    I've been searching for a while and haven't seen much of an answer for this. My fuel remaining on my obc (1000+1) shows 55L on a full tank, but I have a 63L tank. I've tried adjusting the screw beneath the grommet on the bottom left corner and it maxes out at 55L. My fuel gauge on the dash seems to be accurate and my range is around what it should be. I saw in one post that the fuel remaining should only max out to 55L, but saw no other mentions about that. I guess my question is, is it working properly or is something screwed up and it's supposed to read 63L on a full tank?

    You have an 8 liter reserve capacity,
    dating back to when fuel gauges were only found on very fansy
    cars, and the rest of us got a second 'reserve' tank to get home on...

      There is a coding plug. It stores the size of the installed tank.

          The 63l tank has 2 fuel sensors, which work like variable resistors.
          I googled this information: "with 0 ohms being a full tank and 60 (55L tank) or 120 (63L tank) ohms being an empty tank."

            Yeah that was another rabbit hole I went down lol, but both are working appropriately.
