the fuel gage and the hand/thumb warmer isnt working longer on my MM700.
The fuel gage now only shows full tank when engine is running. Have checked the fuel leveler that is in the tank, is has the correct ohm (had 5 to 90 ohm) and is not physichally stuck in any position.
Both the leveler and the tachometer only gets 5,8 Volt, suppose it should get 12 Volt. The tachometer is working.
Any thought what can cause this?

tails lites?
brake lites?
head lites (hi&low)?
tach lite?
Hi beam indicator lite?
speedometer lite?
knowing these might help with diagnosis

Norw: i see your avatar is from the karasjok river 
we should do that some day.
Today i will try to figure out if the voltage regulator is damaged. Would the shop manual have some good info about my electrical problem?

seems to be some cable connection problem. Was driving and then the fuel meter
and the warmers suddently started working again... maybe it is the cable that goes under the motor that is damaged...
