View 11 RepliesVenture :: 2004 LT Fuel Gauge Showing Empty / Totally Dead
2004 Venture LT ... The newest problem I am having that I haven't resolved is that the fuel gauge is showing empty, low fuel light on, range on trip computer says (E). I repaired the wiring harness's on the left and right front due to ac leakage, and I also repaired the pass through behind the drivers seat. This seemed to resolve many of the problems I was having.
The thing I noticed is that before I repaired the pass through connector the gauge would work intermittently but now its totally dead. I find it unlikely that the sender and the connector would go out at the same time. Any wiring diagram of that connector, or at least which color the wires are for the sending unit and the resistance values I should get?
Plymouth - Sundance :: 1991 - After Replacing Fuel Tank Gas Gauge Showing Less Than Empty?
I recently replaced my gas tank in my Sundance, it was getting very rusty around the sending unit area and was starting to leak. Everything is back together and it is running well with no leaks. The new problem that it has, when the car is running, the gas gauge shows less than empty, even though it has a considerable amount of gas in it. When I shut the car off, the gas gauge slowly moves up to where it normally would be when it would be running. Did I somehow mess up the ground or did I cross something? This is my daily beater car and need a working gauge.

Ok so the fuel gauge says empty and the low fuel light stays on even though the tank is full. I'm assuming its either the gauges or the sending unit. If it is the sending unit where is it located on this car?
View 4 RepliesFord 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Fuel Gauge Is Showing Empty With About 45 Gallons In The Tank
The installation of the new 50 gal. Titan tank went well overall. Start up was smooth with no leaks but the fuel gauge is showing empty with about 45 gallons in the tank.
The sending unit was properly oriented ("clocked") so I'm guessing the electrical connector is not secure at the top of the sending unit. Not sure I can reach the connector without lowering the tank somewhat.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2004 - Fuel Gauge Showing 1/4 Tank - Computer Flashing 5 Miles Empty?
I just bought a used 2004 F-350, 4x4, crew cab, short bed, 6.0L diesel. I'm having a WTF moment on fuel. Gage indicates just under 1/4 of a tank of diesel but the on-board computer is flashing like crazy stating 5 miles to empty, what the hell is that all about?

View 8 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Low Fuel Light Came On And Gas Gauge Needle Went To Empty With Tank 3/4 Full
So yesterday I was driving home from work.. I know my tank was 3/4 full. All of a sudden, my low fuel light came on and my gas gauge needle went to empty.
The needle sits at E, but it still says about 20 miles till empty on the MFD. When I left the house this morning, it said 5miles till empty.. by the time I got to work, it said 20. Kinda odd..
I will hook up the vagcom when I get home tonight, any area I should scan for? or just a complete scan? There is no CEL error on the dash though. What I could look at to fix this?
Phaeton :: Fuel Gauge Reads Near Empty
Problem: Fuel tank near empty and the gauge (appropriately) reads near empty. I pull into a gas station and fill up. In spite of a full tank, the fuel gauge is still near empty and the warning light/chime is still on. I turned the car off and restarted it several times but no change.
I can't recall any and could not find any reference in the table of contents.
Phaeton :: Fuel Gauge Goes To Empty When Gets To 3/4 Full
When my fuel gauge gets to 3/4s full it stops working and goes to empty. My range display also goes off. When I refill it works again until it reaches the same point.

I have owned the car for about three weeks and I have noticed that the fuel gauge will sometimes go to empty or should I say will not go up to the fuel that is in the car... It always stays empty... At E, why? I have tried tightening the fuel cap for multiple times. What kind of parts should I replace from Sewell?

My gas gauge will read empty every once in a while then correct itself after driving for a few miles. Is it just the sensor sticking?

Prius (Gen 2) :: 2006 - Fuel Gauge Goes From Low To Empty In 20 Minutes
My 2006 Prius has 165,000 miles. I haven't had any major issues but twice in the last 2 weeks, I've had my fuel gauge go from low (2-3 bars), to one bar, to having the "add fuel" message in less than a half hour. The second time I actually did run out of gas so it's not just that the gauge is faulty. When I ran out of gas, my battery also appeared on it's last bar. After putting gas in it, the car ran fine and the battery perked up. The only recent maintenance was break pad and disk replacements but I've not noticed any drag or difficulty braking.

So I fill up today, 20plus gallons, the gauge shows near empty prior fill-up and after it is very very slow to show full. First I was confused and to make certain I filled again but the tank is full.. So, I guess a) the gauge is just slow to react or b) the sending unit called it quits or c)
View 5 RepliesGmc - 1500 :: 2001 - Gas Gauge Always Register Empty When Fill Up The Car
I've got a 2001 GMC Sierra 1500 with about 80,000 miles and with a gas gauge that is possessed. It sometimes appears to be working normally, but is just as likely to do very weird things, like: When I fill up the car with gas, it will always register empty. And it will stay there until it sees fit to move to full. BUT: if, as I'm traveling down the road, I move the transmission from drive to neutral, the gas gauge will move to full. This also happens arbitrarily between fill-ups, with the gauge sometimes registering empty and sometimes finding some random place around where it should be. Once again, if I put the car in neutral, the gauge will move to its correct position (at least I think it's the correct position!). I was told my one mechanic that the problem is that the fuel pump is wearing out, and that this problem is not uncommon for the Chevy/GMC trucks. The fuel pump is in the gas tank, I'm told, so to replace the fuel pump is rather expensive.

This has been happening consistently where the trip gauge on low fuel goes from 40miles to zero mile in a matter of seconds. I've never seen where it goes through the gradual process 30->20>10 > 0.
View 9 RepliesSanta FE SM (2001-06) :: Gas Gauge Always Reads Empty And The Light Is On
I've been fighting this for weeks with no success. Gas gauge always reads empty and the light is on. I checked the resistance of both sending units sitting in the tank 28 ohms on the right and 50 ohms on left. That should be within spec right? And when I pulled them out the ohms change at a steady rate with the arm down to 4 or 5 ohms.
I've checked all the fuse, all good. And I do have a for fuel level sensor A. Is there supply voltage checks I can do, or ground something to try to get some reading?
Pontiac - Grandam :: Gas Gauge Moving Toward Empty Quite A Bit After Little Driving
I just recently purchased a 2003 Pontiac Grand AM, V6. I took it to my mechanic for a tune up ( spark plug, fuel injection cleaning, wires and oil change) after my father and I both noticed the gas gauge moving toward empty quite a bit after just a little bit of driving. My mechanic said that the diagnostic was showing the car was firing properly and that these models generally don't get good mileage in the city. I am close to using three quarter of a tank and have only traveled 200 miles. What could be going on with my fuel efficiency?
View 8 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Fuel Gauge Dropped Down To Empty While Driving
Today I noticed an anomaly with the fuel gauge in my 2010 TDI Golf. While driving along the fuel gauge dropped down to empty. But there were no other indicators and the engine kept running. I had filled up with diesel about 10 miles prior and had stopped and started the car a couple of times since. I went on to my next stop (after another 4 miles or so) and then restarted the car with no issues and the fuel gauge was back to normal.
