[QUOTE="Adam Smith, post: 1013884, member: 59024"] (posted in wrong place originally) The fuel gauge reading on my '04 flex fuel Trac started having intermittent problems in 2012. It was very sporadic, only right after fill up, would still show empty, but would usually pop back up to "full" after restarting; or it would slowly creep up while driving after the fill up, and would be fine after that. Became more common in 2013 after fill ups, and now in 2014, I have had it happen while driving around - suddenly within a short time after fill up the red dash light and audible alarm will go off and the gauge drops to below empty (bottomed out). Anyone with some new ideas? I pulled every fuse and just pushed them back in; be careful if doing this, it's easy to forget where one went. I believe it is a 7.5 in the middle column that controls all the gauges on the dash (yes, I d/c'd the battery first). Thanks! [/QUOTE]
