Fuel Gauge Broken?

Fuel Gauge Broken?<br />How do I go about testing the gauge and the sender? It reads full at all times. (I know the float is not stuck)

1. Make sure all the connections are solid.<br /><br />2. Put an ohm meter across the sender terminals. Move the float arm up and down. You should see a steady drop and rise in ohms with the sweep of the arm.<br /><br />If the sender is OK, it's the guage.

Disconect the connector and see if the gauge drops to e. if it don;t it might be wiring or the gauge. Also ground the leed wire and see if it pegs the gauge but do it quickly so u don't burn out the gauge
