wonder if any of you guys could help me?

after replacing a blown headlight i put the battery back on to find my car now thinks its got no fuel in it....

its not registering any fuel, even though its got circa 30 litres in.

ive tried reconnecting the battery again to no avail, any ideas? should i check the fuses?

problem is ive got a 250 mile drive this afternoon!!

any help would be great,

cheers kyle

Think i've heard stories about some funny goings on when you remove the battery. I think its pot luck when it starts working again !!

I'm sure there are some threads on here relating to similar stories.........

Connect it and drive it. it "should" sort itself out.

WHS - leave it a short while and fill up again and it should re-set itself. Disconnecting the battery can cause all manner of irregularities but most seem to sort themselves out after a short while.

It's always best to have a small 12 volt battery connected to the battery leads if you are to take the main battery out or changing it, saves a lot of hassles.
