Afternoon All.

Can someone tell me what the voltage from the fuel senders should be? Fuel gauge is stuck on empty despite there being fuel in the car. I have looked on the diagnostics and it is showing 0.86V at fuel sensor eject and 4.99V at fuel sensor pump. Its a 2010 3.6 TDV8 L322.

Cheers.

It's a common issue, you'll find it well documented on here if you do a search. You can get by with a temporary variable resistor to mimic the output of the tank sender. The actual fix requires you to get inside the tank to repair the wiring. 2016 Skoda Octavia VRS Estate

Brill. Thank you MikeO.

On my 4.4 the engine would cut out without warning when it decided to protect the fuel pump from running dry.
Because careful until you get a tank reading

Thanks. Will do. It's off the road for the next week or so to get some jobs done and this one is on the list.
