Gas guage problem

[Heavyhitter92]

ok i tried the DIY led dash settup but i did it ghetto style i got a bunch of blue bulbs and simply replaced my bulbs and sharpied some plastic and put the plastic on some places but when i hooked everything back up the only thing that doesnt work is my gas guage. i know i have barely any gas in the car but its showin a full tank. it worked fine before i touched it. what could it be? thanks

you might have broken a wire somewhere
check the connectors see if they are fully seated

some gauges needles are coil action so maybe u could have stretched them out
