I’m tryna find out where to read fuel level from a Bluetooth scan tool on my phone and I can’t figure out where to get a fuel level reading. Anyone know where it’s located. I’m using RealDash and all my other gauges work pretty much accurate. I just need help with the fuel level setting. Any help would be nice thanks.😁
 
I use dashcommand and torque pro for my apps with an ELM327 device. In both cases you have to put weight, engine displacement, etc, etc....The app does math on vehicles with mechanical gauges. I found the old fashioned way of using a calculator is more accurate as the app can't account for all things considered. The OBD port on your Jeep just isn't providing enough data. Your fuel gauge broken?

No it’s not broke, but I would like to display all my gauges on a iPad to the side. I am using a Veepeak BLE. Is there anything that could be broke such as a sensor or something. I really don’t know how this kind of stuff works.😬

I think the issue is you need a nicer scan tool to get that reading. I'm reaching in the depths of my OBD memory here though. I know my two apps won't give me that data but I've seen a really nice scan tool display it. The other issue is your taking a reading from a simple mechanical float which is not the most accurate to start with.
 
The TJ OBDII doesn't monitor the fuel level.

Ok thanks. That’s all I needed to know. Thanks for the input guys. I would have been searching the web for hours.😁
