Tank off - electrical connections


Denis

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I have managed to get the fuel "quick release" couplings apart after some pushing and shoving.....

 

There are two electrical connectors that need to be undone after that, one of them comes apart very easily, 

 

The difficult connector is the larger boxy connector that has , what can best be described as a lever , which can be either pressed or lifted.

 

30 minutes I have tried , what am I doing wrong?

 

 

Comments appreciated.

Wish I had seen this before... I struggled with the same connection yesterday (the connector to the fuel indicator, the only connection on my tank).

I got it off, but I destroyed it in the process. The connector on the tank side/side of the fuel indicator is totally broken. Can I replace only the connection(s) or am I best of replacing the entire fuel indicator?

 

First time I take of the tank. Learning by doing (mistakes)...

The level probe is quite expensive, $190 over here, just use a different  plug, spade connectors or similar

There's not a lot of power on that connector, if you short the wires to chassis it will just make the light go.
