Title: Fuel level sensor wiring
Post by: TurboFource on Monday,January 22, 2024, 11:56:49 AM

I moved the level sensor and wiring from the left to right tank as I am running one tank for now.
The original black wire to the sensor has no continuity to ground for some reason. The left tank’s original ground wire does, will the gauge/level sensor be fine using this ground (I am no electrician)? I think it will but I want to check.

You will have to ground the sender otherwise it won't work. Is that what you're asking?

   The grounds for that go through the cabin light. Provide a separate ground from sender to a ground stud you select. Then you can swap the sender from tank to tank and take the cabin light out of the picture.
  The more grounds the merrier.
