Hi Zoltan, Assuming you have checked fuse, and easy things, loose wires, etc.. You can check the rest of the complete fuel gauge system by: Removing the two leads at the tank sending unit. With the key on/engine off, check for voltage across those leads. If there is 10.5 volts the complete system (less the sending unit) is in order. You can check the gauge by shorting the two leads together with the key on, and the gauge should "peg". Pull the sender and check for a problem, replace as needed! If you have no or low voltage at the leads, there is a problem is the circuit. To check the system start with a Bentley and tracing from ground back to power. I would put the voltage stabilizer high on the list. Have a good one. Howard
