Fuel guage on SC2400

CantonHayGuy · Jul 3, 2013

Anyone out there with any of the CC/Y compact tractors have any issues with the fuel quantity indication? I've got about 15 hrs on my SC2400 and the fuel indicates full even though it's not. When I turn the motor off, the needle goes to zero as it should. Dealer mechanic says CC/Y hasn't heard of this problem, but to check the wires at the top of the fuel tank. Not an easy task to get to those connections, but I did; they seemed fine, but maybe a touch of corrosion. I cleaned the terminals of the sending unit and tightened the female connectors; was too late in the night to try to put it back together enough to start it up to checkit out. Just wanted to get some thoughts. If this don't fix it, it's going to the dealer or warranty; looks fairly involved to get that fuel tank out of the tractor.

Thanks

Clearly the gage or sending unit isn't functioning. Haven't head of that one. Let the warranty take care of it. That's what is there for...to flesh out assembly issues.

Ditto on the warranty if your fix hasnt fixed it. I've seen sc2400 fuel gauges "stick" from sitting too long, "unstick" it by driving up and down hills to loosen it up.....no I'm not kidding.

A full indication all the time is wishful thinking....:laughing:
