## 🔌 Function

Converts the fuel level in the tank into the electrical signal the helm gauge reads.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Gauge reading high, low or not at all
-   Reading wandering with no matching change in tank contents
-   Weeping or seepage at the sensor mounting
-   Terminal corroded or the lead broken at the sensor
-   Body cracked or the mounting damaged

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Prove the gauge and its wiring before replacing the sensor, since either end produces the same false reading
-   Order it with the gauge when a fuel level instrument is being added to a panel for the first time — the instrument is listed as needing it
-   Renew the sealing gasket or washer whenever the sender comes out of the tank
-   The gauge cannot read without it, and it is a separate order
