Question Fuel Gauge does not work
My fuel gauge does not work - shows empty when it is not. Is there a way to fix this?

Re: Fuel Gauge does not work

The sending unit is what tells your fuel gauge how much fuel you have and should be located somewhere around the tank. Your fuel gauge showing empty could also be what causes your check gauges light to come on. If both problems are on the same vehicle, they could possibly be related. Not sure though, just a guess.

Re: Fuel Gauge does not work
i think there might be a short in the wiring somewhere mine did the same thing but the connector was loose.
