Why can't these "simple" machines, just be "simple" to fix?

        1957 TR3, the fuel gauge is lying on me b& claims to be FULL, but the 
engine
said "EMPTY" !  If the float had sunk it should say empty b& right?

If you remove the hot (green) wire the gauge should read empty??   Still reads
full.  Correct voltage to the green wire.  So b& must be a faulty sensor ??

Innocent minds would like to know before we start ordering parts.


Thanks for your time b&
