Manipulating Fuel Gauge Readings in Megane I Ph II 1999 and Scenic II 2005 with Gas Installations

Best answers

How can I stop the fuel gauge from showing false readings after installing gas in a Renault Megane I Ph II 1999 or Scenic II 2005?

In the Megane, you can force the dashboard to refresh the fuel level by briefly disconnecting and reconnecting the orange wire under the rear seat; this makes the computer throw an error and then update the fuel and reserve indication again [#16294405] This fix is only temporary and may stop working after a long battery disconnect or after the next few starts [#16294600][#16341190] For a more permanent solution, the replies recommend installing a fuel level emulator, which can work regardless of the fuel level in the tank [#16341190][#16742672] One user also noted that instead of an emulator, the indicators can be corrected by running their self-test from time to time [#16743169] For Scenic II, the thread does not confirm the orange-wire trick, so the emulator approach is the main suggested fix [#16294600][#16341190]

    Hello

    The case concerns Megane I Ph II 1999 and Scenic II 2005, both have a gas installation and in both cases the fuel indicator is cheated. The megane tip shows the fuel level well, but in the middle of the tank the reserve can ignite, which, for example, will go out after the next start. As for the scenario, in the display, for example, after refueling half a tank of gasoline and in a moment I show zero bars and after each start you hear a squeak like it was empty bak and no longer hangs or is there some way because the gas-fired said no.

    Thank you

    At Megance, I have a solution problem
    Manipulating Fuel Gauge Readings in Megane I Ph II 1999 and Scenic II 2005 with Gas Installations

    You have to disconnect for a moment the orange wire under the back seat, pass the piece and connect it. Then the computer gets an error and updates the indicator and reserve on a regular basis.

    Until you disconnect the battery for a long time it will work. In Scenic, I have no idea if it will also work because it is newer generation.

    I talked to the gasifier about this tank foper said that it will not solve the situation anyway because I have to have at least half a tank of fuel, and so every now and then a stop will hang and after a while I will update when ignited.

    Recommendations vehicle tanked above half of the tank. As a colleague above wrote the indication emulator must be mounted. Some indicators have a change when you are fueling more than 10l or 8 hours of parking.

    Another gasman said he did not have to stand 8h or be tanked above half of the tank. It will reset after every engine start I have a mid-month visit. Thank you

    If it is above half the indicator often reset itself after 2-3 engine start.
    There is a guy like MarekSpy from Katowice who has done his level emulator and works very well.
    Although the emulator with AC can be easily mounted to the car from the topic.

    Not like half the tank is a reason to be ashamed, sorry but this is not the place for barren discussions.
    The emulator works in refferences.

    Can anyone give the exact type of fuel emulator that has been set up for Scene 2 and works regardless of the level of fuel in the tank. Various models are cited, but I want it to be tested in practice. I do not want to buy something that will lie on my shelf.

    It is a pity to have money for any emulator (although whoever prohibits the rich), from time to time to do self-test indicators, after which the indicators show the correct level of fuel in the tank.

Topic summary

✨ The discussion revolves around issues with fuel gauge readings in the Renault Megane I Phase II (1999) and Scenic II (2005) when equipped with gas installations.

Solutions proposed include disconnecting the orange wire under the back seat to reset the computer, which temporarily resolves the issue. However, it is noted that this fix may require repeated disconnections of the battery. Some users suggest installing a fuel level emulator to maintain accurate readings regardless of the fuel level, with recommendations for specific emulators that have been tested successfully. The conversation highlights the need for a reliable solution to prevent the fuel gauge from malfunctioning after engine starts.
