Hello lovely people!

I'm trying to get my fuel gauge to work.

If I connect the left hand side terminal (the one marked +12v as you look at the back of the cluster) up to a 12v supply (from the generator and indicator light shared +12v) and earth the other side to the metal on the cluster, it shoots up to full when I put the ignition on. Now, this is where it gets fun. If I connect the sender wire (that I've checked it connected to the sender as I have a little access panel above my sender) to the earth side, a fuse pops and the indicators start ticking!!! :lol:

Any ideas? Any ideas how I test me sender?! Don't understand quite how it happened!

Thanks :)
