Re: Fuel gauge reads too high.

I am happy you have explained how to repair and test it.

I was wondering how a resistor could fail with such small wires attached but after reviewing this it makes sense. if Volts x Amps = Watts then Amps = Watts/Volts. 2watts/14volts = 1/7 amp and that is all a 2 watt resistor could handle. Am I correct in this assumption?
