United Kingdom 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Buckingham Blue
Fuel Gauge Broken............

Hi all.

I've spent the most of the last 2 days, on and off trying to get Navcoder working and talking to my car.

In doing so, I've flattened the battery, and had to put it on charge.

When the battery was flat, and the car wouldn't start (interior lights on etc, but not enough to turn the starter), I noticed the fuel gauge was reading totally empty and the orange light on.

The battery is charging now, and the car starts fine, but now the fuel gauge doesn't work.

Range is obviously reading zero now, and I'm a bit stumped as to where to look next ?

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Well, having charged the battery overnight, I filled up, and the gauge is reading correctly again.

Pretty sure I didn't have a senior moment, as the fuel light wasn't even on when I put it in the garage on Saturday morning, let alone an empty tank......

All's well that end's well.........

Who knows..........
