#1: Fuel gauge doesnt work Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 4:25 am ---- I think it might be that the sender is stuck, as it was working before I ran out of fuel.
How can I unstick it?

An easy way to verify fuel sender sending correct signal.get access to pump and disconnect plug youll see 4 pins. 2 of them are smaller.they are fuel sender output.using an ohmmeter measure the resistance between two small pins.when tank is full it should be around 50 ohms and when empty it should be 350 ohms.when you fill the tank or move the floater resistance must decrease smoothly(not jumping) from 350 to 50(full).
