fuel level not working
i need some help this fuel gauge is driving me nuts..i bought a used fbm twin pump hanger installed it hanger works great but my fuel level on the cluster doesn't work...i thought it was the sensor in the tank so i pulled it out and replaced it with the 1 that was originally in the car.....still doesn't work so i though i maybe getting stuck under the filters on the pumps took it back out and move the sensor up and down gauge doesn't move so i ordered a brand new one from honda installed and move the float up and down doesnt work...it only moved 1 bar double check the wires...seem to be right i believe i have it yellow wire to blue and black to black...thought that was wrong so i matched the pins from original hanger to make sure...deff right so right now im back to where i started have any1 had this problem before?

Im having this exact same problem and we triple checked everything and cant figure it out.
My gauge will read full when I fill up then it will drop 3-4 bricks from gas being consumed then it just stops reading after that and gets stuck at like 3/4 full tank until I fill up again.
We checked like 100 times to make sure it wasnt hitting anything and its not. I cant figure out wth is wrong so I ordered a whole new floater/arm assembly im praying that my arm was maybe slightly bent and it was hitting something otherwise I dono what it could be.
