Re: fuel guage issue

do you plan on plugging it into the connector that goes into the printed circuit, or straight up to the fuel gauge

Re: fuel guage issue

You can check this link and I think you will find that the connections are as follows.

A. Is the sending unit
B. Is positive.
C. Is the gauge ground.

Here's a cluster diagram showing the wiring.

It doesn't show the ground but it's there.
