Hi,
i have my tuscan since 6 days, but the previous owner told me, there is a switch or relaise above the tank.
It activates after a crash in the boot. It can be possible that you must reset the relaise.

Its worth a try. There is a kind of hump in the boot above the tank top edge. Pull it up, its held by velcro. Under there to right side I think is the fuel cut off. There's a rubber push button on the top.

[so called]

Dont mean to sound sarcy but have you got any petrol in the tank ?

Barry i think this is when you switch on both the fuel & temperature gauges go through there initialising the gauge for fuel is not hitting the fuel zero switch on the pcb

Hi Guys,


Thanks for you help, I found the switch and pressed \ released it a few times and it seems to have sorted the problem.

It has just gone through the MOT first time as well. Yipee, back on the road again
