I replaced the fuel pump and had to use a vertical visions relay on the vehicle to get it to run correctly but now the fuel gauge is stuck on empty. Fuses are fine.

Hi,

When you installed the pump, are you sure the float wasn't stuck in the downward position? Also, did the new pump come with the level float?

I attached a pic below. I'm not sure what it is you changed. Tell me if the wiring is different than what is indicated.

Take care,

Joe
