Need some help stock fuel gauge 1g

ant_turbo · Oct 31, 2014

My stock fuel gauge on my 1g talon all ways reads full... I'm pretty sure the gauge is working when I disconnect the plug for the fuel pump the gauge will go to empty but once I plug back the plug for the fuel pump it goes straight to full
I do have my Deatch Works 320lph rewired... Thanks

Sound like a fuel sender issue.

When the fuel gauge sender is grounded it reads full so you must have a short to ground there.

So does the short ground only have to do with the pump?? or just in general
Thanks,

The sender - not the pump. The fuel level sender in the tank is either stuck in the full position or it is shorting to ground (yellow wire).

Here is a pic does anything look out of the ordinary

do you have FWD or AWD?
I don't have a 1g but according to the manual the all yellow wire is the sender (going to your red connector terminal insulator). The yellow-blue is the low fuel level thermistor (yours connects to that bright yellow). Black is ground.
