Hello all! I have gone through a few threads regarding the faulty fuel gauge, but have not seemed to resolved my issue and am wondering if someone can help.
My fuel gauge is pegged at Full. I have a new sending unit and new IVR on the cluster. The + wire to the IVR reads 15.5 volts. The ground wire to the negative post of the gauge is properly connected. I have even bypassed the original orange wire from the pigtail at the sender unit with a new wire going from the sender unit post directly to the cluster fuel gage. I have cleaned the ground wire at the sender and made sure the wire is properly connected.
Something else to note when I turn the key to the OFF position, the gage goes down but has a very slight tick or "spike" around 3/4 full tank and then continues to go down past E.
I have just hooked up the Multimeter to see the reading at the post per previous threads, and the unit reads 1.6 ohms at the "200" ohm setting on the multimeter. The tank is full. Per the earlier threads, it should read somewhere around 16 ohms.... am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks and Happy Easter!
