Was done with no need of new parts!

Thanks for this great video! I am about to pull out the pump on my wife's Peugeot 307, I don't get any resistive reading off the sensor terminals on the pump. I have also tried putting a 100 Ohm resistor across the sensor terminals going back to ECU and the fuel gauge stays on empty with the light on. The voltage across the sensor terminals is 1.4 volts

Hei, I hope you can help me. I have a citroen c4 2008 1.6 HDI. I try to fill fuel and it just doesnt goes in. I unpluged the ventilation hose and blew from there into the tank and the fuel goes back, But then I blew air from the fuel pipe and It goes well and air comes from the ventilation hose. What I noticed is that if I blow too hard into the fuel hose I hear a click noise in the part where the fuel pipe unites with the fuel tank. I hope I was clear enough and I dont how what to do. any help?
@Mambre79
@Mambre79 7 лет назад
Checking resistance may be misleading in some cases. Another way of testing is that you see 5v on one wire, 0v ground on the other, sensor unplugged. Jump 5v to ground and instrument cluster must read full tank or so. The whole circuit is tested ecu, wires and cluster so fuel level sensor is bad.

@jonathanarcher7761
@jonathanarcher7761 4 года назад
Everything depends also on the Fuel pump and it's gauge for instance I bought to my 307 new pump from Bosch and I have 50-185 Ohm I have a problem with readings I tried change setting for empty end full but without results. Next I will restore default sender settings 66-350 And i use Learning in spare parts fold in Diagbox and see what happen

Your tutorial is so great ! If you don't mind me asking, I have another sort of problem with my gauge and I don't see any solution : The gauge shows 3/4 full while it is actually full full but what is surprising is when I unplung the wire from the fuel pump, my gauge still show 3/4 full when I put contact on (and goes back to 0 when I swith contact off). I would be very grateful to have an insight :D

I don't have anything to actuate the needle. I have an OBD 2 test tool (AL539) and I just use it to read the codes that my car may have (and no code registered at all for now !). Maybe I can actuate the needle with this tool but I don't think so ! Another detail : today the car computer seemed to have the correct estimated fuel remaining while the gauge was still plain wrong (keeps on getting lower and lower). Thank you very much for helping me, truely appreciate !

@LMAutoRepairs 5 лет назад
@@MrBwetch That's why I asked if you could actuate the needle... Because if the computer is seeing the right amount of fuel, but the needle is not, then it might be an issue with the cluster... and actuate the needle would show you that...
