Bad gas gauge?

Well the resistance according to my multimeter was 1. I put it at 200ma and it came out with 1.


Lets try that again. Put the leads of the Ohms meter together. The meter should first zero and then show whatever restance is in its leads. Different scales moves the decimal point so... for example you would see .X or .0X or .00X
Check the senders resistance at the .x
1.0 ohms would fry the gauge.
