Electrical problem
1992 Ford Explorer 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

Can you tell me what might be the best troubleshooting steps for checking why the fuel gauge does not work? Recently had major motor work done. Gauge did not work when returned. There is a loose wire near the code check plug near the under hood electrical panel. Could that be it? Could not find place to plug in loose connection.

Thanks

fuel gauge is controlled by sending unit float in fuel tank. if fuel gauge worked prior to engine repair then you may want to bring this issue up with the repair shop and let them know that it did indeed work prior to their work.
