My yellow warning light of low fuel doesn't work.
Anyone can help me?
If I close connection on the fuel pump connector on the fuel pump it's work. So is not wire or light bulb issue.
It could be the things i show You on picture? If not what is the things marked on picture?
Thanks
That's the low fuel level sensor. It operates independently from the fuel gauge level sensor, which is the float in the picture. So, if you checked the wiring and bulb, then the low level sensor is bad. Unfortunately, you have to buy the whole fuel sender unit assembly. It comes as part of that.
^ Sure thing. I would also guess you could dunk the sensor in water and then remove it to test the unit. Of course it would need to be plugged in for this to work.
Is that picture of your fuel pump or someone else's? Your bulkhead connector (white) at the top of the unit looks like it's been melted thru from a bad electrical connection or modified. If it's melted you will need to bypass the white connector for FP power or get a new unit to make sure the pump voltage doesn't flake out and blow your engine.

Yes is my fuel pump.
As soon as I find some times i will work on it.
Thanks for the advice.
The problem was the sensor, i check for continuity and was working well.
I bought a new sensor found on ebay for £20 i'll let You know if my fix will work.
You may see the rest of what it was probably a floating ball
This is inside the sensor. Probably the floating ball close the circuit and activate the Low Fuel yellow warning light
Thanks for the help :-)

Update,
Thanks for all Your cooperation.
I Installed a new sensor bought from ebay and is working. I filmed all procedure and I will make soon a tutorial to easy help any other people.
In the meanwhile if You need just the sensor I bought mine from here: Low fuel warning sensor
I copied the link from the main youtube page then inserted it into your post. If it didn't work then you may make a new post and I'll remove the broken one.
I would like to make one safety observation: Avoid using power tools when removing or reinstalling screws around a fuel tank. The fuel vapor may ignite from the sparks generated by most commercial power tools.
This was an excellent video demonstration. Thank you for sharing your experience!
