Fuel gauge
I recently assembled my first Hawk. I noticed the fuel gauge isn't working. It has a full tank of fuel in it. Any idea what's going on?
Thanks |

Theres a connector from the sender in the tank to the wiring harness. Make sure its clean and tightly connected an while you're there, look for any shorts or breaks in the wires.
Congrats on the new ride!

Make sure the sending unit is plugged in under the tank.

Mine came with the wire pinched and broken along with a misaligned seal that leaked gas. I spent a lot of time on this issue which I later deemed worthless. Once I got it working it bounced all over the place. I ordered a replacement from CSC Motorcycles in California that is the same one from the TT250. its better but still not very accurate. In my opinion just keep an eye on miles and before you go out for a ride do a visual. Next time you tear things apart for upgrades, Look into that being one of them.
