Fuel sender

[MoggyMatilda]

Removed the fuel tank from my minor to clean it out & paint it. Removed the sender unit as I was giving the tank a good clean. It had previously been working perfectly. Now everything reinstalled the sender doesn’t work.

Any ideas? Do they need to be earthed?

Yes it earths through the body of the sender and the tank.

Maybe I’ve put too much fuel gasket round it for it to Earth. I’ll try putting a new Earth from the body to one of the screws on the sender.
