Hey Guys, brought a 1999 TH Magna altera 6 months ago. Since owning the car the fuel gauge stoped working followed but the trip computer then the speed alert. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated, cheers.

Howdy JRB!
Sounds like a strange issue. Could it perhaps have something to do with the fuse for the speedometer? Try giving that a go.

Also, I've moved this thread to the proper location!

Cheer's Pickels, first time on, thanx for moving thread to proper location. Checked all fuses, they seem fine. thinkin maybe ECU or fuel sender ?????

Won't be the ECU which has nothing to do with the cluster display of fuel level or the odometer related functions, which are in the cluster - it might be the cluster itself though.

Would be either the cluster or the trip comp itself causing other issues to back feed, have seen this a few times

Hey Madmagna, thanks for your post, tried a different cluster no change. Spoke to a guy from nolans, his convinced its the fuel sender. Maybe its time to book her in to a auto electrician.
