Heads Up Display ERROR
Hello, I’m having a little problem with the hud system in c5 corvette. The problem is I had removed the speedometer bezel to get it carbon fibred, and when I replaced it back the hud system is reading it incorrectly, like in full fuel tank it reads 1/2 full on the HUD and there is oil light in it but just on the HUD not on the actual instrument bezel.

I think what you're seeing is your oil pressure, not your fuel level. It's a matter of stepping back through the page button on the HUD control panel to start seeing the things you want to see again. The HUD shows a variety of system functions, not just fuel level. Experiment around or search for info on how to set up your HUD. I don't think you've got a problem here. At least not based on what you said in your post.

Re-read post #2. Slowly. And as many times as necessary until you understand that your HUD is currently displaying your oil pressure and that you can change it back to read your fuel level by pressing some buttons.

So, did you get it resolved or is the problem still there?
