My petrol gage is broken..?
Answers:
it Most likely the senser in the petrol tank not the gauge , to test find wire running to petrol tank run direct to earth (it will not short out ,its dampend)if the gauge rises to full its the sensor in the tank , get it fixed in a garage not a job for an inexperienced person
Take it back to the dealer.Probably a blown fuse.
the dial is giving you feedback from the level senser in the petrol tank, it sounds like that is moving around, best to get a mechanic to fix it.
Alternatively make a note of your car make, model and year and find a maintenance manual telling you exactly how it works and how to fix it.
Take it bak and swap for diesel.
If it's new, then it should be covered by warranty. Take back to where you bought t and have them fix it.
You'll have to resort to a 'Dipstick'. ;>)
and you cannot be bothered to do a spell check either gage?
sounds like air traped in the fuel line it will cure its self through time once the tank is nearly empty.
if its a brand new car take it back from where u baught they will fix it for u free of cost, if its not then fix it by ur self becaz without petrol gage u will stuck somewhere
There are three parts to the gauge system sending unit ,in the tank. Gauge in the dash and voltage stabilizer. Some time wiring gets chafed. I can look up most cars wiring diagrams if I only knew what make model and year and miles KM the car has driven.
the dealer will fix that
If the car is brand new, it should be under your manufacturers warantee. But if it an older car and you are calling it new for you, then what you need to replace is the fuel sending unit located at the fuel pump probably inside your gas tank. Depending an the year make and model, you are looking at a $200 repair.If i were you, as a precautionary measure, if you have an electric fuel pump in the gas tank, change this at the same time. Labor is the same no matter what.
good luck..
take it back ok
As several people have pointed out, if its really a NEW car, unless its stolen, let the dealer take care of it. If its an older car that is just new to you, its probably a professional fix. HOWEVER, here is an idea: Dont fix it. Fill your tank. Write down the odometer reading. Find out about how many miles per gallon your car averages, and how big the tank is. Figure out your maximum range on a full tank, drive 50 or 75 miles less than that, and fill your tank again. Biggest drawback is, you have to fill all the way up every time, and do a little math.
