Default Gas guage problem - 04 deuce

The gas guage on my 04 deuce illuminates but the needle is always stuck on E. I know that these aren't the most accurate guages and I use one of the odometer modes anyway but would just like to have it working. Anyone know what might be the problem and likely fix?

Look at my numerous posts and look at the pics....
Note: I recommend, when removing the fuel pump unit from tank.. to straighten out
arm rather than removing the single screw I did in my 9:51 am post.


This should help..
