Fuel Gauge stopped reading fuel level
Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2020 7:36 pm
Here's one to banter about...
I stopped for Diesel this afternoon, after the gauge went down to 20 miles remaining...
SO I put £50 in the X5... re-started & gauge read zero/20 miles remaining still...
Thinking I had been ripped off by the garage, I used a different fuel pump at the fuel station & added, another £50 to the tank and topped it off to the filler neck.
The gauge still read 20 miles remaining & the needle at zero...
Before this day, there has never been an issue with the gauge or reading or miles remaining... so, whatever has failed has done so in one go.
Any suggestions as where to start looking or tinkering ?
regards to all.
