When I have almost empty fuel tank, low fuel level lamp is not ON.

When I took fuel pump assembly out of the tank lamp didn't shine also.

I checked the lamp by connecting 2 pins in the fuel pump harnes and lamp worked.

What to do? is it possible to change only Low fuel sensor?

Did you by any chance install guages recently?

I have the same problem. The only time it illuminates is when I use Shell V Power and it's running low. Nothing else, including additives, works.

well just for reference here's my findings.

we have a 14.5 gallon tank. after I use 10 gallons it hits E. use one more gallon and the fuel light comes on.

when I removed fuel pump assembly from the tank, I connected the harnes and turn on ignition, lamp didn't come on.

Prolly something along the way back to the cluster. Could be anything. Rip your entire car apart and double check all the wiring. lmao.gif

Yeah so did mine. If I was low and I was getting on the highway it would fade in, then once on the highway, it would fade out.

But now, it stays on. I almost ran out of gas when tibby01 was doing my gauges and it's been on ever since. I have the exact opposite problem.

I checked wiring by connecting wires on fuel pump harness. Light come on.

How the hell does the thing measure the fuel level anyway? Mine fades in and out too.

It does fade in and out.
That is, until your tank gets so low that it stays steady and bright, that means you have about another 15-20 miles until you stall.
