I think the 2.2 uses a different CAN protocol to 2.4 as it's a TATA product rather than Ford-JLR.

Found this when making GM LS3 engines interface with the Puma instrument cluster on some conversion ...

Take the sender out and with the arm in it's lowest position bend the arm so the float is lower.
