Help with Cobb AccessPort installation issues

Hi all, just got Accessport V3 and installed Stage1 91 map. After installation everything appeared to be working fine, but fuel gauge is at 0 and the dashboard shows warnings that I'm out of gas. Gauge that shows fuel level through AP also shows 0.

I uninstalled AccessPort, but the issue remains.

Any ideas?

drive to gas station and get a full tank of gas. that will fix it. you installed it while floater was at the bottom and gas gauge was in the estimation zone. the ecu "forgot" what it estimated, once you have a full thank it will recalibrate.

Also, the only error code I can see in diagnostics is C01C1, can't find any description for it.

if you do not have a check engine light i would not worry about any codes cobb shows, my car had weird codes too with a cobb which duramtric never picked up. for diagnostics i trust durametric.

go get some gas and reload the tune. should work fine

As per the usual this is 100% correct.

Due to the Porsche gas tank if you are under a half tank on install it will do this. Fill it up and all will be right again.

Out of Gas!

Ha! Don't fill up and you me end up like me! Gauge and dash monitoring was a joke on me with 50+ mi left to the tank.

A refill helps reset the gauge.

Thanks for the save with gas pwdrhound!
