The bx1500 does not have a fuel gauge, instead its a fuel light. The fuel tank is full but the light stays on. Saying I'am out or low on fuel. Any ideas

I have not had that problem but this week I fixed my temp gauge which did not work (it was always cold). It turned out to be a bad connection between the wire and the faston connector which connects to the temp sensor. My only suggestion would be to check the wiring for opens or shorts before going after the sensor.
Good luck and please post what you discover.

When did this start? First time it's happened maybe. Think of a car and the idea that the float might be stuck in the low position. It may fix itself after some time but look for something like loose wiring. If the wiring was bad I'd imagine the light wouldn't work at all.

Two days ago I was hauling mulch, when I noticed it flashing. I continued to work hoping not to run out of fuel. After completing my task I went to fill the tank and noticed I could see fuel, I filled it. The next day my son was using it and said the fuel light keeps flashing all the time. I started the tractor and the light stayed on yet it was full. I will check the connections and keep you informed.
