Default Fuel-It Blue Tooth module

I bought a Fuel-It blue tooth module, plugged it to my DSX flex fuel sensor using the DSX wire harness and it will not work. Burger Motorsports is telling me it is not compatible to the DSX product. I know some of you are using this blue tooth mod from Fuel it. What am I doing wrong?

Thats the same one I bought. Attached is my email, there was no mention of the wrong part or fix. I ordered what their customer service chatbot told me to order.

So if it's same....let's check the obvious. I once tried to check mine and it wouldn't connect, unplugged it for a bit...still wouldn't, but then I noticed Bluetooth was off on my phone. Double check that

I had no connectivity. They had me direct wire it to the battery and still no connectivity. I doubled and triple checked that my Bluetooth was on.

Did you use the DSX wire harness or the harness with Fuel it device? I dont know if it would make a difference

So...the plug that would go to dsx unit, goes to pigtail of sensor, sensor to dsx (it's 105 degrees and didn't feel like lifting up the cover)

I really expected it to be a 10 minute simple solution. They didn't want it back, which surprised me. But telling me its not compatible makes it that I question buying another.

Reach out to fuel-it directly.. when I get home let me see if I still have the wrong one.

Fuel-it technical support, sales & order emails do not work any longer. I guess Burger Motorsports has bought them.

The module is super easy. On the new universal ones you have to go into the app on your phone and turn on the pass through signal to the ECU. It simply plugs inline with the flex fuel sensor. Donwnload the app and connect. We use them all of the time with the DSX flex fuel sensor.

Do you use the DSX wire harness or the Fuel it harness? I personally don't see it would matter?

The fuel it blue tooth module doesn't have an extra harness. It simply plugs in-line with the flex fuel sensor.

This is what they sent, minus the sensor.

Only plug in the inline part, mine came with the extra harness but isn't used. I had an issue with mine as well at first but I emailed them and got me straightened out. Works fine now.

Once you connect to your phone make sure the output mode is set to frequency under the settings

Or you haven't enabled the pass through feature in the app, which is required, or you won't get a signal to the ECU. It's been mentioned a couple of times in this thread already.
