Tao Motor TBR7 Fuel Gauge fix

dig4dirt · 06-02-2022, 02:18 PM

So brand new TBR7 and fuel gauge not working.

Was thinking of ordering a new upgraded one rather than having to install another bad oem...

Before that of course I had to troubleshoot to make sure it was defective.
While modding my bike, I had the gas tank off, but was very careful not to pull the wires off. I made sure all wires/cables were not getting pinched etc....

So I had already dielectric'd all my connectors.
I thought oh no, I am gonna have to drain, take off tank, take off headlight etc...

But, I found the connector coming off the tank (two wires green and yellow i think?)
and here one of the two tabs was pushed to the side, so it did not make a connect.
Bent it straight and viola! perfecto! gauge now works!
now for the accuracy, hahaha

So just in case anyone has issues, check those pins/connectors first!

Maybe it is the sender connection. Pain in the neck, but trace the wire, check connects. Might be working, but not connected!
