The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The Electrical Bay New Fuel Gauge and Sender Still Not Working

I did a search and read many posts on the fuel gauge issuues. I still need help. I purchased a new 12V dash fuel gauge and a new 30ohm tank sender. With the sender hooked up directly with jumpers to the gauge and also directly grounded to the battery my new gauge does not move. I read that the dash gauge needs to be grounded to the bezel but when I removed the old one I did not see a ground so i put the new back the same way. So I almost have a whole setup removed from the truck that I can't get to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is exactley what I have: keyed +12V into terminal closest to E on the dash gauge, jumper wire from terminal closest to F on the dash gauge to the terminal on new 30 ohm sender, jumper wire from sender mounting flange to neg side of battery. I move the sender up and down and my gauge stays empty. If I directly ground the gauge no movement, if I leave it disconnected no movement. I did verify it is getting 11.90V.
