Oldsmobile Intrique
Engine size = v6
dash lights = no
tech = jk
question = fuel guage wont move how do i fix it?
JK:
The most common cause for a fuel gauge not working or inacurate is the
fuel level sensor in the fuel tank. This sensor is a resistor and can corrode
over time.
Have had a few bad connections and broken wires in the harness that
plugs into the fuel tank unit, but usually the sensor.

problems. The battery is new and we've replaced the starter. I've seen online several other
Intrigue owners with similar problems. Any ideas?

A few possibilities-
The CRANK relay or connections is faulty.
An ignition switch problem. The ignition switch sends power to many of thee cars systems. If
faulty, you may notice some other electrical problem- like no dash warning lights, clicking in
the dash, etc.
Or a security problem. A common cause for this is a faulty ignition cylinder. Also know as the
passlock cylinder. When it does not crank, note if the security of theft light is on or flashing
after releasing the key during a no crank condition. Releasing the key, not turning it off. If
the security light is on, this may indicate a passlock cylinder problem.
Of course this is assuming there is no non-factory alarm or remote start system on the car.
These are also common for causing starting problems.
