Check to make sure you have your test meter set correctly. I had
problems recently and thanks to tips posted here on this list, was able to
verify my sending unit using an old Radio Shack multimeter set to measure
ohms. To briefly recap, my unit measured 1.5 ohms with the float down, and
33.5 ohms with the float fully up. I ran a new ground wire to the seat base
and that seems to have fixed the problem.
The gauge needle now comes off of the bottom stop and does not peg
itself on the top stop. There have been some great suggestions here so let us
know how you make out!
