There seam to be alot of fuel leval sensor problems in these trucks
But if the Gauge on the dash looks ok I would think the leval sensor is OK and its probably a X-Gauge code thing
heres a FL X-Code I have never tried it
FL 07E02216C1 0462451606C1 3010 000101480000 Fuel Level
it was the same code I have on the 3 diffrent lists I have

My scanGauge messed up two days after I bought it. I called Linerlogics customer service and the gal said they were having trouble with some cables. They send me a new SG2 within 48 hours no questions asked . I didn't even have to show proof of purchase. BUT --- no cable came with the new SG2 and that was the problem, so I had to take the original back to autozone for a new unite and was good to go

I got a new SGII once to
no question sent a new unit Also NO Cable
The new SGII Base unit solved my problem I used the original cable
Now with the new unit last winter I couldnt power on the SGII before the truck started when it was cold half the gauges was blank if I tried to power SGII Before truck started
I just let power on on its own and no problem warrenty is long gone so I dont worrey about it
But kinda makes it hard to see some of those voltages right before crank

The suckle part was first I checked all fuses with a continuity tester in the cab and under th hood. Then I had to draw a diagram of the OBDii port to see which five pins ford used, then find those pins on the SG2 and test those wires on the cable for ohms. Then do the test 3 times to make sure of my diagnosis. End condition was two dead wires on the cable

One other funny thing is the SGII does not seem to play well
with other OBD2 tools on a "Y" cable. Mine would lockup and only
fix was to restart the truck. I tried unplugging the 2nd device and
nothing. on restart it was fine.What I had plugged in is the

I also have seen the delay in the SGII turning on .
