2014 Tundra Distance to empty issue
Posted on 6/20/17 at 9:12 pm

So after reading the thread either here or yhebOt about shutting off the engine while pumping, I got gas earlier today and didn't shut it off. Jumped back in the truck. The needle goes up but the distance to empty stays at 28. It's now at 3 even after the truck sat for a few hours off. Any ideas?

I drive a 2014 Tundra as well and can sadly confirm that's probably accurate.
Fuel gauge looks ok? Tried disconnecting the negative battery terminal for a few mins?

Well that's dumb as hell.

To reset my fuel relay in my Toyota I had to turn the ignition on/off 3 or 4 times to reset. Maybe that will help? I know certain senors require distance more than time

This happens in my wife's Lexus suv and my tundra. The digital readout resets when you shut off for a minute and restart. It's also done it on it's own once I've gotten a ways down the highway. As for the accuracy of it...dont bank on it. I drove my wife's SUV on "0 miles to empty" for 15-20 miles looking for a gas station once. Will NOT do that in the tundra @ 15 mpg on a good day

Could be worse my 2010 read 60 miles left when i ran out of gas once. Needle was also closer to .25 tank too. Now i never trust the miles left

Just don't pass any gasoline stations without stopping to fill up and you'll be fine (probably).
