So my wife and I just got a 2001 F-250 4x4 7.3 6-spd and its got a couple minor issues I wanna fix. I haven't had a chance to check into but figured I'd start here.
First, the fuel gauge stays on full when the truck is on and goes to empty when off. The owner said the fuel tank has been out of the truck before and after it was re-installed It stopped working. If the gauge wasn't hooked back up at the tank would that cause Iit to stay at "full"?
Second, the "door open" light and dome/cargo lights come on when the drivers door is closed and goes off when its open... maybe wires hooked up backwords wherever the sensor is?
I plan on poking around at things later today but wanted to get any insight I could. Thanks!!!
