Low fuel beep and warning light not working

[Cupra_power]

Hi,

My low fuel beep and warning light does not seem to be working, although the gauge works fine. I drove the tank seriously empty, gauge resting on zero (estimated range left 10 miles) to make sure and not a beep or a flash, previously it would beep when it was much further up the gauge. Anyone got any suggestions to find the fault.

Checked the normal stuff like fuses, all okay. hope it is not the dashboard pod that on it's way out.

could it be something to do with the ECU? may be worth doing a reset.

Will give that a go, thanks for that.

I briefly mentioned this on another thread but didn't get a response... my TDI doesn't appear to have a low fuel warning light, but it does have a beep - is this normal? I've owned the car almost two years and there has never been a light, but I haven't established if this is normal? It does seem strange that I'd have a beep but no light...

The light is within the gauge, just below the 0 on the gauge. My light & beep came on just below the quarter mark. Usually with +- 5 liters in the tank. It would beep and the light would come on everytime you started the car until you put more fuel in.

Hmm - well that happens with the beep, certainly - but there's no obvious sign of a light on the gauge (although I know these things are sometimes hard to spot if they're not illuminated!). There are several different instrument panel configurations, although I'd have thought an SE would have had a light?

Bah now I feel like I'm missing out

The ECU reset seemed to sort the problem out, as it beeped as normal once the gauge got to it normal position just below 1/4 tank .strange problem none the less.

Hello everyone,
I have the same problem with Seat Ibiza year 2015....
How to sort it ? (Gauge is not mechanic but in the screen)
