Farm Pro 2425 by Homier has a gage for gas in the tack but dealer says that model does not have a working gage. It also has a tank float but it does not register. Should the gage work? And what fuse would be for it. Or is there a sensor that I need to check on?

I believe all instruments are on a common circuit (one fuse for all). And yes, the fuel gauge should work. Is the sending unit actually wired correctly to the gauge? If I remember correctly, there are at least two wires at the sending unit. One is a short black ground, another goes to the gauge. If it appears to be wired correctly, reports of defective sending units are not uncommon.

The gauge itself will have another wire that provides the 12v supply. If there's an extra wire on the gauge, ignore it. I think it was for backlighting, which is useless when the gauges are unlit.
