My Gas Gauge is Bouncing Again

[SpyderAnn01]

I had my gauge replaced late last year and thought everything was good. I filled up about 50 miles from home and now the gauge is bouncing again. Have any of you had this happen with the replacement gauge? I know I can disconnect it and use the gauge on the display but I don't want a non working gauge and I don't want to pay for something to put in its place. :gaah:

I am really thankful that it waited until I was almost home to mess up.

Sorry to hear that. Sounds like a component failure. Time for another replacement.

Mine seems to bounce around a little more than it did when first replaced, but not enough to cause me any angst.

When the tank is low, if I come to a quick stop, the gauge bounces a bit, but that seems to be the worst of it.

Frankly, I took that to be a "feature" of the gauge, not necessarily a failure.

That's all I've got. I hope it's helpful.

I had mine replaced also and everything was fine. Now I am getting bouncing with the replacement gauge. I don't know if the "new" gauge was the modded gauge or not. I called my dealer and told them and also informed them that there was a bulletin on it. They are checking with BRP and I should have an answer within the next couple of days.

Had my bouncing gauge fixed last summer. The new one is doing it again. The dealer has ordered a sending unit this time--will keep you posted.

I went into the dash and disconnected both the gas and the temperature gauges. Now they both show in the window between the speedometer and the tach.

I made an appointment to get mine replaced again. I know that I can disconnect them but I don't feel like I should have to do that. I don't want non-functioning gauges and I don't want to have to buy something to put in their place.

I had mine replaced under warranty late last year and I assumed it was the new and improved gauge. I don't know if they replaced the sending unit.
