Fuel Gauge - Sticks/Inaccurate or Remains Near Full

FILE IN SECTION: 8 - Chassis/Body Electrical 

BULLETIN NO.: 56-83-02

DATE: July, 1995

SUBJECT:
Fuel Gauge Sticks, Inaccurate or Remains Near Full Until Ignition is Cycled (Send to Delco Repair Center)

MODELS:
1995 Chevrolet and GMC Truck C/K Models

CONDITION

Fuel Gauge and Volt Meter may exhibit a false reading; usually higher than actual. The fuel gauge may return to a correct reading if the ignition switch is
cycled off and back on.

CAUSE

The Instrument Cluster applique may separate from the cluster housing and physically contact the round pointer pivot located in the center of the gauge.
This contact prevents the gauge from moving freely (Figure 1).
