Ok guys, almost a year ago I replaced the sending unit on my boat. The unit worked, but the gauge read full when empty and vice versa.<br /><br />I remember reading somewhere on the instructions about what could cause this.<br /><br />I left it alone not worrying about it because it is a paint to get to, and now I can't find the instructions. I have the tank out and can easily fix it now.<br /><br />So, What wiring do I have swapped, any idea?<br /><br />It's a standard Tempo electric sending unit/gauge.<br /><br />Thanks<br />Shawn

Easy answer is to turn the boat upside down. :)

Would this sound too easy, just reverse the wires on the back of the gauge?<br /><br />**I won't be held liable for any fried gauges**
