Abstract: Roughly described, a fueling control system includes a nozzle module for use with a particular fuel dispensing nozzle, a vehicle module for use with a particular fuel tank inlet, and a site controller. The nozzle module, in response to predefined user activation behavior such as removal of the nozzle from an on-hook position and insertion into the inlet of a fuel tank, wirelessly transmits a wake-up signal and an identification of the particular nozzle. The vehicle module, in response to detection of the wake-up signal, awakens from a low power mode to an active mode, detects the transmitted nozzle identification, and wirelessly requests authorization for the particular nozzle to dispense fuel. The site controller, in response to detection of the nozzle identification, authorizes dispensing of fuel through the particular nozzle.
