Signs of a faulty part

If you notice any of the following, the part likely needs replacement:

  • Inaccurate or fluctuating fuel gauge reading
  • Gauge stuck at empty or full regardless of actual fuel level
  • Low fuel warning light triggering incorrectly

Installation information

Usually accessed by removing the fuel pump assembly from the top of the tank — check the tank is low on fuel before starting work, for safety and to reduce spillage.

Frequently asked questions

This sensor typically uses a float and variable resistor — wear on the resistor track or a sticking float mechanism causes an inaccurate or erratic reading over time.

  • I ordered a Heater Blower Motor Resistor for a Toyota Avensis. Delivery took eight days from Latvia to Ireland. I installed it, and everything works perfectly. I wish this company success.

  • No complaints about Evro Trans itself, everything's fine. But the delivery..... It felt like the order was being carried by turtles. 4 days from Riga to Daugavpils. Judging by the tracking, the parcel just sat somewhere behind a shed for 3 days, then they found it and delivered it the next day. I think that's why I won't be ordering there again.

  • Bought a front fender for my car. I liked it! After payment they sent more than 20 photos of the problem areas, and it was packed very securely - took a while to unwrap.
