Why does my gas gauge say empty after fueling?
In my 2008 Santa fe my check engine light came on and now my gas gauge says I am empty after fueling and does not show accurate fuel levels. The gauge fluxuates up and down if is works at all.

Is the fuel level gauge on a diesel truck not working?
Discussion in ‘ 6.9L IH & 7.3L IDI Diesels ‘ started by The Warden, Jul 29, 2013 . Hello! I know that it’s a pretty common problem for fuel tank sending units on these trucks to not be working properly.
What happens to the gas gauge when the circuit is shorted?
If the internal circuit is faulty, the gas gauge may only function in one section, such as between HALF and FULL or between EMPTY and HALF. If the internal circuits are shorted, they may peg to FULL or EMPTY. If the circuit is open, the gas gauge will likely sit at EMPTY and never move.
Why is my fuel gauge not working properly?
A fault in these parts will cause gauge failure or make it give incorrect readings. The four ways of how a fuel gauge can fail are: 1. Sending Unit Failure . The most common reason for a fuel gauge to not work. The gauge may read the voltage feedback from a dead sender as ‘Full’ or ‘Empty’. The fuel gauge won’t show the correct reading.
Why is the fuel gauge not working?
There are a couple of reasons that would cause the fuel gauge to stop working. The most common reason is that the fuel level sending unit has failed and is not accurately reading the fuel level.
Why would a gas gauge stop working?
Circuit Problems can cause the gas gauge to stop functioning normally. Depending on the location of the fault, the fuel sender may not have a source voltage, the gas gauge may have no fuel sender voltage, or the ground for either one may be interrupted. Loose connections and corrosion can also cause problems,…
Why does gas gauge not work?
Here are four ways that the gas gauge can fail. Sending Unit Failure is the most-common cause of a gas gauge not working. When the vehicle is in motion, the sending unit is in constant motion, constantly rubbing the variable resistor. Circuit Problems can cause the gas gauge to stop functioning normally.
