I installed the lift pump on my crd and after I finished installing it and took out for a spin the gas gauge does not work anymore. I was looking at the video on Git It Garage but the pump that he got from Sasquatch and the one I got are different. Might be because his is 2005 and mine is 2006, but I was looking at switching the floats but don’t want to break anything |

Did you check to make sure the float arm was moving smoothly and that the contacts on the arm was making contact with the "resistance" board on the assembly? When I did mine, I had to swap over the float arm, wires and the resistance board to the new fuel pump assembly since the one I got, the contact tabs were broke off. Tested the fuel gauge before I reinstalled into the tank and works perfectly. Or Did you get the wire harness too? The harness that goes from under the drivers side rear passenger seat, with a through grommet out to the fuel tank and speed sensors. I made my own from an 04 gas liberty and just spliced in 2 wires for the pump power and moved 2 wires for the fuel gauge. Good how-to in the tech section: viewtopic.php?f=98&t=86136 |

I got the wire for the pump that connects to the 2 speed sensors and I just finished checking it and no luck so ima see if I can switch the float arm. The float arm on the new one is moving freely so we will see

Update I switched the old float from the old pump and it worked. I also made sure the connections were extra tight and the ground screw was extra grounded. So it works now thank you . |
