Just bought this Van and the fuel gauge is completely not working at all. The previous owner stated that the Van had been looked at by a mechanic and the tech stated that it is an electrical issue. I'm trying to avoid having to do a full replacement of the fuel gauge system, and was hoping to find out if it is simply a fuse or a single little part that needs replacement.

Probe the yellow wht wire with key on if gauge goes to full then it's the sender. If it doesn' t then it maybe the anti slosh module in dash or gauge both in cluster.

I'll try doing that, thanks for the response.

I forgot to note the gauge needle on the dashboard remains in a position past the full reading, to the far right.
