Fuel Used

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

This message indicates the amount of fuel used since last reset. Fuel Used is calculated using the equation: Fuel Used = Fuel Sum.

Fuel Used = The accumulated fuel used since the last reset of this value.
Fuel Sum = The accumulated fuel sum since the last reset of this value

The ECM sends the fuel used value to the IPC. The IPC receives a serial data message with the fuel information. The fuel used value is retained as long as battery power is available to the DIC. The fuel used value can be changed between English and Metric units by accessing the DIC trip/fuel information switch.
