Koso RX1N
Hi People
At the moment I am sorting out my fuel gauge on my KOSO dash unit.
Can anyone tell me if the sender unit has higher ohms when empty or full .
I can see in the manual you can select 55 or 100 ohms but not sure if empty or full
Cheers
Vaughan

I have a sender out of a Mazda 323 . It has 2 ohms full and 60 ohms empty.
I will get another if that will not do the job .
As the dash is for a motorbike I have no problems using a bike sender if thats what I have to do .
Cheers

Those readings are the standard values used in most bike fuel senders. From what I recall when I set mine up, I couldn't get it to read the
exact values Koso quote. what I did was connect the sender up, then look at the gauge as you move it to both extremes. If that doesn't work,
switch the resistance to the other vlaue and try again. You can't correct for a non-standard sender.... Either it works or it won't!

Honda Blackbird worked for me, and for a fair few others as well....
