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.
