Title: Busted fuel gauge.
Post by: Edd1Ninety9 on August 22, 2011, 09:06:36 AM
Hellloooo :)

The new FD is amazing but needs a bit of TLC here and there. The fuel gauge is stuck on half at the moment, any thoughts how to get it working again? :)

Ran a few searches and says something about bridging the sender unit connections?

Any help appreciated. :wiggle

Probably worth sourcing a second hand float dude and see if that works doubt it will be massive pie :)

Welcome to FD ownership and the constant worry of something breaking lol!, did you but the spares from James too?, I lost his email address when my iPhone crashed as I was going to buy the feed bonnet from him.

Hope you get it sorted

Regards

Matt

There\'s a section in the technical manual about testing the fuel gauge. :)
Havea  quick search and download it - it\'s invaluable :)

Awesome cheers guys. Will have a look at that now.

Matt, he\'s still got the bonnet and I have his number if you want me to give it to you so you can get in touch. It\'s in good knick and he wants a fair price for it. Only reason I didn\'t get it is because I want a carbon one.

Thanks for the advice on the gauge though, will try and sort it this eve!
