has anybody had there fuel gauge stuck on full,i pushed the sending unit down in the tank but it didnt move any of the bars in the gauge im stumped thanks
 
I had the same problem on my '02 Viper, I pulled out the sending unit and the contacts on the potentiometer were worn so they no longer made contact. If you pull out the sending unit, and remove the metal housing at the base, you should be able to check for this. I had to replace mine. But....an open circuit or bad ground will also cause the unit to read high resistance, and therefore a full tank of gas. Hope this helps.
