Just returned from a 150 mile jolly this morning.When i set off fuel gauge showed between 1/2 & 3/4 of a tank,25 miles into journey fuel gauge needle drops to bottom of gauge and orange light on fuel gauge flashes ,so i pulled over turned ignition off and on again and no further problems.
But on the way back after some 40 miles range warning on dash shows 7 miles but fuel gauge shows 1/3 of a tank then range meter sets itself back to 140 miles on its own ,then another 20 miles on range meter flashes up again showing 17 miles but still showing 1/3 tank on gauge .
Has anybody any thoughts as to what can cause this

FC gets tank contents from fuel gauge, so sender, wiring or dash

Reseat dash may help

thanks for reply tb my thoughts are related to display rather than sender unit,as display has played up about 6 times now,but fuel gauge only the once (for now that is)
This could be fun as me and electrics are not the best of mates.
