1998 Dodge Caravan Low Fuel Light intermittant problem

[stanno]

Hi all. Normally I deal with the GEO Metro forum, as my commuter car (and the one my wife lets me work on LOL) is that... however I have a question about our family vehicle.

My wife was driving back from Walmart when she noticed the left forward turn light was out. Not a big deal in itself (she figured it would be another thing to add to the honey to do list) but then after she turned left (and using the left turn signal), the low fuel light flicked on and off and the gauge moved from the full position to the 7/8 fuel position (we gassed up this morning) and started doing this about every minute after that... My question is this... will replacing the bulb fix this, or will I need to delve a lot deeper to find the cause... we replaced the body computer last year to deal with a problem with our wipers, so I don't think that could be it... however I will not rule out anything.

Thanks!
Stan

I had a similar situation. My fule pump died soon after that.

this happens in my grand caravan every time i overfill the tank. you'll hear a ding, the light will come on, the guage will drop down and shoot back up. after burning some of the gas, it always stops
