The fuel gauge sender also commonly referred to as the fuel sending unit is the component responsible for sending the signal that operates the fuel level gauge in the instrument cluster. This measurement determines the length of the sending unit s float arm. Replacing a bad fuel sender is easy.

A resistor is an electrical device that resists the flow of electricity the more resistance there is the less current will flow. If the gauge needle doesn t move the gauge or wiring is bad.

In a fuel tank the variable resistor consists of a strip of resistive material.

The length of the sender arm may have to be modified to fit the dimensions of your fuel tank. First measure tank depth from the top of the tank near the sending unit to the bottom. Go back to the sending unit and with a screwdriver lay it across the center stud to the ground wire. Free shipping by amazon.

This also ensures that the gauge reads properly. The fuel gauge sender is a component that is found in the gas tank of most road going vehicles. The sending unit is located in the fuel tank of the car it consists of a float usually made of foam connected to a thin metal rod the end of the rod is mounted to a variable resistor. 4 2 out of 5 stars 42.
