Default Ultra-Gauge issue

I recently reinstalled the Ultra Gauge on my 2004, mainly to monitor coolant temperature. It's been off the truck for a couple of years. All is fine, except today after filling the fuel tank, it did not reset the DTE (drive til empty) reading nor the amount of fuel in the tank. Any suggestions?
Thanks

To my knowledge the UG has no signal available to monitor fuel quantity or consumption. You have to manually enter when (miles) and how much fuel you've put in. Then the UG just does the same math you would do manually... No actual MPG data there to report. All just an estimate based on user input.

That makes sense. I thought it had been reading my available gallons via the portal. Thanks.

The Bluetooth UG Blue has an option to monitor the fuel consumption and level.

If you hold the up button on the UltraGauge for a few seconds, it tells the UltraGauge that the tank is full.

This is annoying because when you forget to reset the ultragauge after filling up and you have 7/8 of a tank, it starts beeping about how you have 10 miles of fuel remaining or whatever.
