hi gents
just connecting my durite fuel guage bought as package from cbs and cant get thing to work.checked and double checked wiring just seems to go off the scale towards empty.have tried removing sender and moving to full/empty but nothing. tried overlaying wiring still the same.tried swapping power and earth over just goes straight to full.knackered guage i guess?

do you have a earth from the tank sender unit to chassis earth

nope?on sender theres 1 connecton that goes straight to the guage?or do i need to do something else?

you need to earth the sender to the chassis


on the fuel tank where the sender unit is fastened by the set screws you need to attatch the earth wire to 1 of the screws and the other end to the chassis
