I have just finished rebuilding a 57 Moggie and have fitted a new wiring harness. When I turn on the ignition the fuse that supplies power to the green wires blows. When I disconnect the gauge green wire and the green/brown wire the fuse does not blow. Does this mean my gauge is broken or the fuel sender unit is broken and causing a short. Also there doesnt seem to be an earth connection on the tank sender unit, surely this needs to be earthed? Is there a quick and dirty way to check if the gauge or sender are faulty using a multimeter ?

Well first off, lets put a comment here that to save a lot of confusion, all replies should be in one place, over on the OTHER post you've made

Clearly not an accidental double post as the wording is different

Good point, I'm locking this thread.
