I wonder if you can help me with me problem on my 24 volt system concerning the fuel gauge and and or sensor.
I have a 2004 Fleetwood Discovery 39s motorhome diesel pusher. I drove to the fuel station, about 10 miles away from our resort, and filled it up 2 weeks ago. The fuel gauge read full after that time.
I then drove it back to the resort and did not start it up again until yesterday only to find that the fuel gauge was not working.
It is reading empty, I know that?s incorrect because we have not driven it that far, just 10 miles since fueling it up.
What I do notice is that when I turn on the ignition the fuel gauge needle does wiggle a little but that?s it.
I am thinking a few things, the gauge could be broken, or the fuel sensor is not working properly, or maybe there is a fuse someplace that's blown. I checked all the fuses on the 24 volt system that I could find and they are ok.
Can you possibly give me any information on this problem?
My wife and I are going on a road trip in 3 weeks ( on April 15 ) and I want to get this taken care of asap.
Anything you can help me with on this problem I would appreciate it very much.
I am not as educated in the world of electronics as some folks are but I did work as an HVAC tech for almost 40 years and have a fair understanding of wiring schematics and such. Please, if anyone can help me in any way I would appreciate it
very much. Thank you David A, Packard
