A system for determining a level of a liquid present in a storage container in an automobile is disclosed. The system has a liquid level sensor for determining a preliminary liquid level of the liquid stored in the storage container, an ignition key position sensor for determining an ignition position, a vehicle speed sensor for determining the automobile's speed, a transmission gear selection sensor for determining a transmission gear position of a transmission of the automobile, and a processor. The processor receives input signals from the liquid level sensor, ignition key position sensor, the vehicle speed sensor and the transmission gear selection sensor for calculating the level of the liquid in the storage container.
A system for determining a level of a liquid present in a storage container in an automobile, the system comprising:
9 The system of claim 1, wherein the processor determines whether liquid has been added to the container by monitoring the transmission gear selection sensor.
A method for determining a level of a liquid present in a storage container in an automobile, the method comprising:
