Fuel gauge

[Pfonzi]

hello I replaced my sending unit and float and my fuel gauge still won’t work.
Does the printed circuit control the fuel gauge?
Thanks for your help

Yes, signal is sent through the printed circuit.

Where is the needle pointing? 3 o'clock is an open circuit (like a broken wire or connection) and 9 o'clock is a grounded circuit.

My fuel gauge is registering very high, the tank is empty the gauge says I have 1/4 tank. can you pull the needle out and reset it? thank you in advance.

You probably have a sending unit malfunction. An 89 V35 unit will be $$$.

No, it won't work. You have an open circuit, so it's a broken wire, bad sender, etc. If you can get to it, you can pull the sending unit wire and put an ohm meter between the pin on the sender and ground. If it shows between 0-90 ohms, the sender is working and you have a wiring problem. If it shows open, you have a sender problem.
