[DML] Re: fuel warning light not functioning / gage inaccurate

["welmoedj" <joe.dalton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Since power for the low fuel light is supplied in the dashboard and the 
other side runs to ground, check the ground at the sender side. Perhaps 
the connection is interrupted or bad.
It also is possible the bulb in the dash has died.
