Default Fuel gauge stuck on full

Hello all I was driving my 2008 is250 quite spiritedly on the highway and I realized my gas gauge was stuck on full, I had pulled over and turned my car off then on to see if it would move but it didn’t, does anyone have the same issues and if so what fixed the problem? Thanks guys

How long have you driven the car since it was filled up? If more than 100-150 miles and it hasn't budged an inch, you likely have a faulty fuel level sensor. I believe that part is replaceable, I'd read up on this post to see how to get the fuel pump out: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...el-filter.html

Yes maybe a malfunctioning level senor. See pic below it should be that one. Always contact a dealer for information. So many online these days to contact for verification.
