    Hello. Problem with the fuel gauge on Opel corsa D 1.2 twinport, 2007 engine designation Z12XEP. The mechanic was checking everything from fuel tank to clocks. Probably the clock cracked. The fuel pointer is still on the halfway. I am thinking of replacing the "COUNTER CLOCKS" on the Allegro you can buy used at a reasonable price. My question is that maybe someone has knowledge - do you need any Pins, logout or something similar after replacing such a meter. Will it run without any problems?

    The meter must be logged out, otherwise you will not log it into your car.

    Welcome back. I was advised not to buy a meter, apparently first you need to check after installation where is the error? Someone can recommend an electro-mechanic in Szczecinek or the surrounding area who would check it. Of course, I've been to some of the best and no one has time for me, you ......: {don't want to do it. Probably too much searching and not enough money because how to explain it? Normally it is worse to make an appointment with a mechanic in Szczecinek than with a doctor!

    Detach the ankle from the sensor and let them know what happens.

    When a corsa is flooded for PLN 50, the indicator becomes dumb. Have you flooded it full?

    The car was imported from Germany. The German cried when he sold :) I have had them for four weeks. No, I didn't fill them up once, I refueled for PLN 50, then after driving a few km. for PLN 100. When I bought it, for example, the reserve was lit and half the tank was indicated. I changed the timing and after that the indicator showed half the tank and the reserve was off, I added fuel what I wrote above and still shows half the tank. I disconnected the kleme, I thought it would reset, but linden.

    Ok, I'll do it tomorrow, but I wouldn't be myself if I didn't write, why are you so advising? can there be an air-entrained tank, for example?

    The reserve shone later when refueling went out, so it rather suggests an error in the sensor in the fuel tank.

    And was he pulling the sensor?

    And I filled it up! I even rocked the car to get more in! and what a gas station employee yells at me that gasoline is leaking from under the car! k ... I think 4 to 5 liters leaked and stopped flying. I drove up to work from 3 km. I checked under the car there were no leaks. from work to the house from 5 km, I stood on a slight slope - the back of the car is slightly down and there is a small stain, you can smell fuel. I went after about 10 minutes nothing is dripping. Help before going to the mechanic because they'll be smart again. Every day something that was supposed to be so beautiful :( And I forgot the fuel tip - it says 75%.

    Added after 2 [hours] 51 [minutes]:

    Thanks for the hint of refueling, I don't know if this will solve the problem of fuel indication, but I definitely know what else to repair. A friend advised me to a mechanic in Szczecinek - Górecki, apparently good and concrete. I drove said there was probably something wrong with the fuel basket. I'm supposed to call the office because he does :) in a week and make an appointment (so I will) and ad hoc said that if I want to, I should get to the tank from above and see what is happening. I got and a surprise cap from (probably this basket) cracked in one place (I attached a photo) when I press on the basket, this place is pouring nice :( . I wonder if this is the cause of the wrong fuel gauge reading, or if the gauge is a different story. Thanks again for ordering me to refuel :) Opel Corsa D 1.2 2007 (Z12XEP) - Broken Fuel Gauge & Counter Clocks Replacement Queries

    Finishing the topic, I replaced the nuts on the fuel pump. The mechanic pulled out the float, said it was applied incorrectly. Installed correctly and everything is ok. Just why was someone rummaging?
