Fuel Gauge not working
I am new so please do not rip me apart for my ignorance. I have a Boxter s (2002) and the fuel gauge is stuck in the full position, I have driven it for a few weeks and done a few fill ups to see if this would have shifted it back into working order.
Two questions: 1. Is it a DIY fix? 2. If not DIY what costs would I be looking at to repair/fix? Thanks |
Yes, this can be a DIY repair depending on your abilities. Here is some info:
This is a good discussion of the issue. Be sure that you are convinced that the gauge is ok before replacing the sending unit in the gas tank. https://www.renntech.org/forums/topic/39099-fuel-gauge-stuck-on-full/ This is how to remove the fuel sending unit/fuel pump: Porsche Boxster Fuel Pump Replacement - 986 / 987 (1997-08) - Pelican Parts Technical Article This is a diagram of the system. The level sending unit is #5. The pump attaches to it (#4). I included the parts numbers for your reference.
