Hi.

I need to replace the existing plug/harness for my fuel sender because one of the female 'pins' in the plug has shorted out - and stopping current/signals (and hence no fuel sent onto engine).

I have a new harness ready to connect but do not want to drop the fuel tank. When underneath vehicle, I cannot see/locate this harness and suspect it follows on top of tank towards front. In fact, this harness is just underneath the floor panel but I cannot access anywhere through the floor panel - unless I cut recess in floor panel to easily access harness from top without dropping tank.

Question - Is there any way of re-connecting a new harness without having to drop the tank?

THanks

There is a round inspection plate in the boot floor above the fuel tank to give access to the sender and the fuel pump for a petrol disco.

If your disco has had a replacement boot floor then the plate may/may be not be there, I don't know.

THanks for reply.

Yes, I can easily access the round inpsection plate on the floor.

But, I cannot access the other end of the harness as it seems to follow the underside of the rear floor towards front of vehicle.

My question is this - How best to access the other end of the fuel sender harness??
