ETB Digidash

Hi,
Been fitting my digidash and after a couple of minor wiring issues its nearly complete.
The problem I have is a totally empty fuel tank and the dash is reading 100%. I currently have a sender that was for a smiths flight fuel guage and was told it had the same resistance as the etb one. I can swop to etb but before I do that does anyone have any idea of the resistance of the smiths one? The etb one is 20 ohms full and 260 empty

If the sender is a float on a swing arm type it could be that it is on upside down.

Sounds daft but it happens.

Go into the settings on the dash softwear or just from the unit itself (instructions are pdf on ETB's site), and reverse your settings. Should be good to go.
