    Well, the gas cap would be my first go to.

    Disconnect the battery for a while and reconnect. That would be my easy second go to procedure.

    Curious as to why opening the gas cap was a thought?

    Trying to understand more about how the newer truck determines how much fuel is in it. Does it have a sensor to know if the cap is open?

    The 2007-2017 just use the float to run the fuel gauge and tell the cluster the amount of fuel to calculate the range.

    The 2018 might have more sensors or way of reading the data
