Speedhut 2-1/16″ Street XL Programmable Fuel Level w/Warn (R2-FL1-SXL)

The Speedhut 2-1/16″ Street XL Programmable Fuel Level w/Warn (R2-FL1-SXL) offers precise and adaptable fuel level monitoring for a wide range of vehicles and fuel systems. This gauge is designed to be compatible with most fuel level sensors that operate at 300 ohms or less, providing accurate readings from empty to full. Its programmable nature allows for seamless integration with various sender types, ensuring reliable performance in custom or high-demand applications. The inclusion of a low fuel warning light adds an extra layer of safety, alerting you when it’s time to refuel.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Wide Sensor Compatibility: Programmable to work with fuel level sensors ranging from 0 to 300 ohms, accommodating a broad spectrum of aftermarket and factory senders.
• Quick and Easy Setup: Features built-in preset ohm ranges for fast configuration with common sensor types.
• Custom Calibration: Offers a manual calibration option, allowing for precise adjustments to match specific or non-standard fuel level sensors.
• Accurate Readings: Utilizes a stepper motor to drive the needle, ensuring smooth and highly accurate fuel level indication.
• Low Fuel Alert: Integrated warning light illuminates when the fuel level drops to a low threshold, providing timely notification.
• Versatile Application: Suitable for use in diverse automotive projects and fuel system configurations.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Gauge Type: Fuel Level Gauge
• Range: Empty (E) to Full (F)
• Fuel Level Signal Type Compatibility: 0-300 ohms
• Size: 2 1/16 inch (52mm) diameter
• Mounting Hole Size: 2.05 inches (52mm)
• Warning Light: Yes
• Included:
  – 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness – for LED Lit Gauges and Clocks
  – Wiring Harness (2-Wire Cable)

HOW TO USE:

1. Wiring: Connect the gauge to a 12V power source and ground using the provided Power & Lighting Harness. Ensure proper connections for illumination if desired.
2. Sender Connection: Connect the fuel level sender unit in your fuel tank to the gauge using the provided 2-Wire Cable. Refer to the wiring diagram for correct terminal connections.
3. Initial Setup: Upon powering the gauge, you will likely have the option to select a preset ohm range that matches your fuel level sender. Consult the gauge’s specific instructions for navigating this menu.
4. Preset Selection (If Applicable): If your sender’s ohm range is listed as a preset option, select it. The gauge should now provide a reasonably accurate reading.
5. Manual Calibration (If Needed): If your sender is not a preset or if you desire greater accuracy, you will need to perform manual calibration. This process typically involves:
   • Emptying the fuel tank (or knowing the exact resistance at empty).
   • Accessing the manual calibration mode on the gauge (refer to the gauge’s instructions).
   • Setting the “empty” point on the gauge to match the sender’s resistance at empty.
   • Filling the fuel tank completely (or knowing the exact resistance at full).
   • Setting the “full” point on the gauge to match the sender’s resistance at full.
6. Testing: After setup or calibration, verify the gauge readings by observing the fuel level as it changes. Ensure the warning light activates at the desired low fuel level.

BENEFITS OF USING THE SPEEDHUT 2-1/16″ STREET XL PROGRAMMABLE FUEL LEVEL W/WARN (R2-FL1-SXL):
