I have a B7500 and just recently, the fuel gauge shows the tank full all the time that the key is on. When the key is turned off the gauge shows tank is empty as it should. My question is there something that I can do to correct this. Other than taking it to the dealer. JIM

the electrical wire is grounded somewhere it shouldn't be or has come off the sender.

Jim,

Gotta get me some of that "lifetime fuel" you're using /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

My gauge steadily goes down as I use it over the course of a day /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Also may have to clean your ground connection. Basically same as Junkman says, but just because it's still connected doesn't mean it's still making good contact /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
