With the key on, short the wires at the sender together. The gauge needle should move. That will show whether the wiring and gauge are OK. If it's the sender, they are replaceable. First remove just the plastic top section and use a magnet to move the red pointer. If the gauge moves the problem is the float assembly in the tank. If the pointer is on E it usually means the float has sunk to the bottom of the tank. You will need a very new and good sharp Phillips screw driver and LOTS of pressure on the screws to break them loose. Make sure the screw driver tip mates perfectly with the screws. You only have one chance at this. If you slip and ruin the screw head you are out of luck. The parts are usually made by Moeller and you can purchase just the sender.
