The gauge was showing around 45L of fuel and i just ran out of gas, tank is empty. I opened the sensor from the tank to check if the wires are intact and they are, i gave them a light cleaning with contact cleaner. The problem is, the second i removed the sensor from the tube it came off on it's own, is it supposed to not be locked in by a screw or something inside that cilinder? As you can see in the video it just sits and i can push it very easy. I found a few pieces of disintegrated plastic inside the tube that might have formed a small circle, maybe the plastic had a role for the screw at the end of the sensor to clip on in?
