I'd check whether it's actually getting the right signal from the tank level sensor.
Personally, on my FZ6, I never bother with the fuel gauge, I just reset the Trip 1 counter to 0.0 when I fill the tank and know that in summer I get 200 miles full tank to reserve and in winter it's 175 full to reserve.
Once the display switches to F 0.0 I know I've got a theoretical maximum of approximately 40 miles before it's completely empty.
Thanks for pointing that out, but the tank's full, so I don’t think it’s a reserve issue. Also, the trip is set to 0, so that’s not the counter till reserve. I’d rather figure out how to get the gauge working properly than just rely on the trip counter.

I received my R1 clock today and made the necessary changes to the pins on the connector. I connected all the pins according to your sketch and double-checked everything. Everything seems to be working—fan kicks in and all systems appear functional.
Now, regarding the fuel setup: I’ve decided not to pursue a fuel gauge and will rely on the fuel reserve light instead (Which i didint know it had before). However, I’ve encountered an issue—the fuel reserve light is constantly on, even though my tank is full. On the old clock everything also worked correctly.
Do you know what might cause this? Could there be a way to fix it so the light functions correctly?
I have attached a picutre below. Dont mind the oil light, it went away after the photo.
Most likely reason is the the sensor on the R1 is a thermistor or level type and probably works in reverse. I never got that far in the project just got the unit working with the pinout, to many other things to do. You many be able to modify the set up of the fazer sender to work in reverse, but reverseing the wires would not be enough. It may be similiar to the old FZR 0nes, but I do not have R! or FZR ones to test.
Wonder if anyone has got an R1 sender to check ?
I have a sender unit in the garage and will have a look at how it could be modified over Christmas, but it would help if I had the values of the R1 sender
If you do get a chance to check the sender unit you have in the garage over Christmas, I'd be very grateful for any findings. Do you think switching the wires definitely wouldn’t be enough? If adjustments are needed, what kind of modifications would I need to make? Let me know if there's anything specific I could provide or look into to assist with figuring out the values of the R1 sender.
Thanks again for your help!
