Fuel Reading Issues

by EddeyDancer » Wed Feb 27, 2013 12:00 pm

THE SITUATION:

The 'Range' feature on the Trip Computer reads as 'F'

The 'Fuel Gauge' reading on the dash dials stays on Full, upon start up, and whilst the car is running...

I'm thinking Faulty Sender Unit, or wiring to the Sender Unit...

He suspects that it's an electrical fault...

Anyone experienced such issues before??

It's not about my car, so I'll have to ask the Bugger a few more questions!

But I'll check everything that may be possibly related to this issue...

THANKS...
