🔌 Function

The gauge measures resistance through the fuel-tank sender and displays an approximate EMPTY-to-FULL tank level. Correct sender calibration and grounding are essential for a reliable reading.

Common signs of failure:

• Gauge remains on EMPTY or FULL

• Needle fluctuates when the boat moves or wiring vibrates

• Sender float sticks or becomes fuel-saturated

• Poor tank or sender ground creates an inaccurate reading

• Gauge lighting or internal movement fails
