Fuel sending unit
 
1 Attachment(s)
OK so I have a 96 s14 bone stock and my gas gage doesn't work so I pulled out my sending unit and found the black resistor looking thing solder had broke front the other resistor so I soldered it back on plugged it all back in and the gas gauge still sit's below E so I pulled it back out and check ohms and all is in spec

So what can I check next I'm going to try and upload a pic of the sending unit so yall can tell if I soldered it right

Am I posting wrong or something cause no one seems to want to help
I know people has messed with these things before
So can anyone shine some light on this for me

Have you checked continuity between the fuel sender and gauge?

Gearhead9992 10-08-2017 06:59 PM

No I haven't I'll check that tomorrow and I'm assuming I re soldered it to the right place

Just checked the wire and holly crap I have 33ohms of resistance

So while I'm at work I'm gonna make temporary wire to bypass the original and see if it works

Thank you agamemnon I made a bypass wire and as soon as I put the sending unit in the tank and hooked that wire up my low fuel light came on and the gauge started rising so now I will make a permanent wire

Don't do that. Check your harness connections. If your fuel sender signal is broken, chances are something else is as well.

Gearhead9992 10-12-2017 09:30 AM

Everything else in the circuit is working and I'm only replacing that one wire

Gearhead9992 10-12-2017 09:32 AM

And I figured out the only thing that the bypass wire fixed was my low fuel light
