Ok, so Ive changed the sender and Ive swapped the dials and still not working. I know that both dial and sender I used were OK so whats next, re-route a new wire? Is it that easy to wire it to the existing multiplug? |

check with a multimeter to make sure theres not a break. Its a purple wire from the sender (normally might be somethign else if they ran out of purple wire) so check at the engine end then chack again at the browm plug under the dash top. |
