The bridge would comprise Ground - 1kOhm -1 x 3kOhm - Attach to tank sender.(max 12v).
I would have thought this would work in parallel with the VDO gauges.
Thanks affinite!
I am sure it can work, I just don't (yet) have the knowledge to pull it off. This is a big help, though. Give me something to research further until someone else here says, "Hey dummy, just use 'X', attach it to 'Y' and plug it into 'Z'"!
