Default Fuel Warning dosent work

On my 08 F150 I had a new OEM pump and sender installed now the low fuel warning does not work. Any ideas why?

Does the fuel gauge work correctly (accurately)?

Was the correct fuel pump module installed for the fuel tank size?

If you were completely empty, and if 28.9 gal filled tank, you definitely do not have 30 gal tank.

At my last fill up (when tank was not run dry/empty), I put in a little over 31 gallons before pump clicked off (ie I didn’t top off / overfill).
