2005 deluxe fuel gauges does not work, sometimes it reads empty, 1/4, 3/4. Anyone else having problems? Is it the gauge or the float? Whats the fix. Thanks, Big Dawg

 

The tank gages are known not to be very accurate. My light goes on an about 1/2 tank. I use my A/B odometer to measure mileage between fill-ups. I full up at about 155 miles.

 

I had a similar problem last summer with one of my 05's. Turns out, there was a problem with the sending unit. There is a TSB from Harley concerning it. Take it to your dealer and they should be able to fix it under the TSB. Just as a backup, I always reset the trip odometer, just so I know how far I've gone.

 

Had mine fixed three times under warranty, it always read full. Learned to ignore it and go by the trip odometer. It wasn't very accurate when it did work, anyway.
