I would appreatiate some help - my gauge never worked & sender unit was
fried...wasn't me promise!
I've been lucky enough to have someone else's gauge to look at so I think I
have the wiring right - but am still confused about the sender unit output &
the wiring up of the gauge unit.

The gauge is the type that uses two coils and the resulting magnetic force
to move the needle.

I have a very crude diagram that I can email on request.

Is the following correct ?
Connector B is connected to Battery "neg"
Connector T is to sender unit "pos"

What about the casing ???

Finaly my sender unit reads from Full to empty :
Full 55 ohms
Empty 2 ohms

Where am I going wrong?
