I've been getting the fuel gauge indication error where the fuel gauge readout fans from the middle of the gauge to the ends. It started about a year ago, the spring after I installed a Power Commander PCIII. About 20% of the time the gauge reads half full, or displays one bar (but doesn't flash), but 80% of the time it displays the error. The bike runs normally (perfectly) and when I turn the key on, I can hear the pump priming for a few seconds.
Things I've checked:
-Looked for crimped wires under the tank.
-Checked the ground at the fuel pump.
Things I think that might work:
-Tightening the connector in the back of the instrument cluster
-Replacing the fuel pump.
Would the fuel pump level sensor go bad even if the fuel pump itself is working perfectly (i.e the bike runs normally)? Is it the red/black wire that delivers fuel quantity from the pump, through the connectors, to the instrument cluster?
I've been working on this for two days, and school is starting back up. I'd really like to finish the job! Any help is greatly appreciated.
