Guys,
I am moving along with my conversion project on my holden suburban and have just received my fuel gauge sender from the US.
It is a variable resistor type with a range from 10-180 ohms.
I have a Kiwi path board with 20m.
The sender has two terminals - an earth and the variable output.
I intend to try and drive this at Picaxe friendly 5v levels and see the result.
How physically do i hook this up ? I imagine that somehow i send the 5v regulated current at the variable output and the read this into the picaxe adc pin - i am just confused about what connects to what ?
regards
Craig
