Wiring of the fuel tank sender

Postby Okko » Sat Mar 28, 2020 9:40 am

Hi guys,
I'm restoring an old 170 classic. The fuel cage does'nt work an since i've takeng out the flooring, now is a good time to try to fix it. The red wire was attached to the center screw, but what about the three other wires? Should they all be attached to the one connector seen in the Image?
Thax!

Those are all ground wires, green is for the fuel fill and black is gauge other green goes to a main ground. Put a new spade connector on all three wires and plug it onto the terminal that's sticking up on the left side of bottom pic
