Got in the boat this weekend and when I fired it up, it was showing
*below* E on the gas gauge. I never run it much below just a tick under 1/4, so I knew something was wrong. I filled it up at the gas dock, and it's still showing hard below E, just as far down as the hand can go. Does anyone know the resistance value used for the float sender unit? I know that the sender has a potentiometer (a "volume control") that varies its resistance value between full and empty. The gauge sees that resistance, and turn it into a reading. I just need to know what values to look for so I can figure out if the gauge or the sender is bad. Thanks in advance for any help. |
