 Posted: Wed Jun 05, 2019 4:43 pm Post subject: CJ Fuel Gauge issues |
 |
|
All right, when my airplane was delivered, the fuel gauge worked normally. However, after taking the wings off and putting them back on my fuel gauge doesn’t seem to work normally and actually can be intermittent. It does have power to the gauge and the low level lights. The gauge reads empty with a low level light on one side and the other side is intermittent.
I was wondering if there is anyway to test the continuity of the wire from the gauge to the fuel transmitter sensor on top of the wing or at least to the wing root area. I have the bags installed but I do have access to the screws at the sensor. I would like to test the sensor to gauge continuity to make sure everything is good there. I believe I hooked up all the canon plugs and the electrical plugs at the wing connection. However, if anybody knows what the wire connectors look like for the fuel gauges that would really help. Maybe I missed one.
Also if anybody has a way of testing the fuel sensor’s or any other part of the system I would appreciate any feedback. I would like to take the airplane out of town and I get a little paranoid when I can’t read my fuel gauge.
Thanks,
SAM

Sam - are you sure you are in the right place to ask this question?
I have heard of many mods for Europas but fuel tanks in the wings is a new one on me. Just for the avoidance of doubt, what aircraft type are you talking about?
