See if you can figure this one out:
So got the fuel gauge all wired up only problem is when the tank is full the gauge doesn't show full, it's still missing 3 bars. It registers the fuel and it goes down slowly as I use it but obviously shows empty way too soon when it's only really between 1/4 and 1/2 empty.
I've contacted the seller and it did come with instructions online. Unfortunately, communication is difficult. The seller just referred me back to the instructions.
So here they are:
Fuel gauge installation and debugging methods:
1. Connect the positive and negative pole to power supply correctly.
2. Turn on the electric door switch, fuel gauge displays a grid of red,
and then connected signal line to the negative pole.
Wait for a while, LED light will all light up slowly, indicating normal operation.
3. Connect the signal line, fill up, slowly adjust the potentiometer to make all the LED lights on.
When oil runs out, slightly adjust potentiometer so as to make only one red LED light on.
Please note: The original fuel gauge can not be used together
There's no elaboration on the part where it says adjust. I've tried pouring really slow. Touching the signal wire back to ground. It will slowly go up to full but as soon as I let off back to the old reading.
I'm lost here,

I didn't see any knobs I can check again. Maybe the two red wire plug in these pics??
