Volvo EVC Fuel Level

[Marnis]

Hi All,
I have a 2018 RT 31 CB with the D4 300HP Volvo engine. The EVC display unit at the main helm that shows various views of engine information is working properly, except for one function. While in gear and underway the fuel constantly shows a full tank, never decreasing the number of gallons. It shows gallons per hour consumed while underway in addition to miles per gallon. The total capacity of 180 gallons never changes until i put the gear shifter in neutral and then it shows a balance in the tank. The balance is always greater than my Garmin 7616 fuel balance. I do know how to properly set the fuel on my Garmin every time I refuel. All volvo engine functions display correctly on my Garmin 7616.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Marnis,

I will be at the rendezvous next week and would be happy to get onboard and go through this with you. I believe you are seeing a difference between the level sender and total fuel onboard. Could you please email Jim Favors and get on the list so I have time to do so? Looking forward to it and meeting all our customers!! See you there.

Thanks,
Kevin Lamont

Kevin,

I have the same question, but since I am not going to a rendezvous, please let me know how to do this.
Thank you,
