An indicator light and audible buzzer activate when the fuel level reaches 95% capacity, allowing for 5% expansion within the tank itself. Once activated, the system automatically resets within 10 seconds.

The Overfill Alert System is ignition-protected and compatible with SAE standard sending units. Its design ensures no electronic feedback with onboard systems and is voltage surge protected through 48V DC.
