Fuel Sensor.

After running out of fuel due to the low level light not coming on i decided to investigate the problem. I found the that the previous owner had unplugged the bloody thing and had hidden the connector!! tw@!

So once connected the light was constantly on even though the tank was full. Do i need a whole new unit including level switch or just the sender?

cheers

I can't remember off the top of my head but
I'm sure there is a test proceedure for the sender unit on the good old hayne book of lies.
Give a shout if you need it and I'll go have a look.

Using a paper clip or a piece of wire, just bridge the socket end (not the sender end) and see if the light comes on and off when applied.

If it does then you need a new sender unit if the light is always on when connected, ebay?

Perhaps there's a hole in the float

Cheers guys I'll take the bugger off and have a closer look. The bike's in bits at the moment anyway.
