Fuel tank gauge sender unit.

Replacing a bad fuel sender is easy. The fuel gauge sender also commonly referred to as the fuel sending unit is the component responsible for sending the signal that operates the fuel level gauge in the instrument cluster. The sending unit is located in the fuel tank of the car it consists of a float usually made of foam connected to a thin metal rod the end of the rod is mounted to a variable resistor. In a fuel tank the variable resistor consists of a strip of resistive material.

A resistor is an electrical device that resists the flow of electricity the more resistance there is the less current will flow. First measure tank depth from the top of the tank near the sending unit to the bottom. Go back to the sending unit and with a screwdriver lay it across the center stud to the ground wire.

This will complete the circuit and if the sending unit is bad but the gauge and wiring are good the gauge will read full. This measurement determines the length of the sending unit s float arm. The fuel gauge sender is a component that is found in the gas tank of most road going vehicles. This also ensures that the gauge reads properly.
