Hey guys, new prado owner here and loving it so far. 06 diesel auto gxl with 174xxx kms. Just the one problem so far. My fuel guage is all over the place. I have not tried filling both tanks yet, so only on the main tank (90ltr light is on). When I got it, it was reading near empty. Next time I drive it, it says 1/4 tank. Put about 30ltrs in, reads 3/4. Stop somewhere, restart, reads 1/2. Next time reads 1/4.... then full....aaaand back to empty...all within around 20kms of driving.
I have done a night of searching the forum and all I could come up with is checking for damaged wires to sender under the rear passenger side seat, and ensuring the battery has a good ground to the body. Have done both, wires are good and battery earthed well.
Has anyone had the same problem and found a fix? Not sure if I should drop the tank and install a new sender. I imagine it being a painful exercise..
Thanks, Ash
