Fellas,
Does anyone know which fuse is inline with the fuel level sender, if there is one? I have a BBRC tank with their sender that I spliced to the stock sender wire and ground. It was working fine until yesterday, now the gauge is on E with an almost full tank. Yesterday I had the battery disconnected and unplugged the fpdm getting ready to rewire the fuel pump, however I ended up leaving it wired as is and plugged everything back up. That's when the gauge started reading only E. Any ideas?

Fuel Level Sensor gets signal power from Instrument Cluster Pin-19. Fuel Level Sensor return goes to Instrument Cluster Pin-20. There is no direct fuse for the fuel level sensor.

Instrument Cluster gets power from Battery Junction Box Fuse-5 [15A] to Instrument Cluster Pin-11 and from BJB Fuse-34 [20A] to IC Pin-12.

Hope this helps.

When I freshly full my tank all the way. I get low fuel light and gauge. Couple miles down the road(e85)and it fixes it self. When it first happen to me I was with a very knowledgeable guy and he said he had the same issue.

Interesting, I wonder if that's what is happening here as well. Thanks for the info!
