    CASE learn can also be accomplished by a tuner or the latest version of Aeroforce gauges.

    Normally yes, you can just drop it in.


    But seeing as your having problems it would be best to do a CASE learn and see if the problem is resolved by it.


    However.... I don't see how it would effect your gas gauge not working correctly.

    Honestly sounds like something was done incorrectly with the PCM then.

    When i installed mine i had no problems. I did read somewhere that there is more problems with the newer model GP's and overkill pcm's. When i got my pcm i emailed Will and asked if i needed a "case learn" he said only if you get a check engine light, and i didnt. So i guess im in the clear?

    Like I stated above Will at Overkill thought-

    It seems as though this is an issue with 07s using the older PCM box and isn't a faulty PCM. GM has likely changed how the fuel gauge is calibrated for the 07 model year.

    I would think that fuel calibration would be the same for 05,06,07???
