Default Fuel Level Gauge Problem.

Hey how's it going guys?
My issue is that last sunday I filled my gas tank. After driving all week about 220 miles. My gas level gauge still shows that it's FULL.
I am not sure what the issue could be.

Fuel filter issue? There's a float in the fuel filter unit that measures the fuel level.

Maybe it's covered under the recall for certain years?

There's a phone # on that link I sent btw. Call them and they can validate if it's the right part.

This member had a similar problem: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...uge-issue.html

I'm not 100% on the part number, but it seems like you might just need the fuel pump electrical harness/connector which may be this part: https://parts.lexus.com/p/70530233/7778553011.html

I thought it was the connector on the driver side rear pump.

Try this one, pretty sure it's the connector for the passenger rear side pump. It's a 2 terminal connector.
