low range fuel on dic
2005 C6 MN6 - My fuel gauge works perfectly, but since the last 2 fill-ups my low fuel message no longer alerts me. The gauge is working correctly because both time I filled 14 to 15 gallons. Is this some kind of sensor problem ?

The C6 has 18 gallon capacity between the two saddle tanks, so if you are filling up with 15 gallons to full fuel, you haven't reached the "reserve fuel" level (roughly two gallons).

My Low Fuel indicator usually comes on when I have roughly 40 miles of range left, and I'm averaging 20+ MPG on the DIC. For my car, this is at the last line on the fuel guage.

14-15 gallons won't be enough to set the light off.
I'm usually putting in around 16.5
