Help needed with electical!!!

I have a 92' Dodge Dynasty, 3.3l, v6 that has the fuel gauge not indicating anything at times with the low fuel light on even when it has $30 gas in the tank.The fuel pump is also not engaging at times. I'm not sure if this is an electrical issue or not, but any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank You.

Sounds like a bad connection somewhere. I don't know exactly how the wiring is on your car, but there is probably corrosion in the plug for the fuel pump/sending unit assembly.

It is possible both the fuel level sender and the fuel pump share an earth.

If this has gone bad, it would explian why both are not working.

Ground and Earth are generally the samething, yes.
