Homemade gauge test tool, C-3826

Actually I would NOT necessarily follow this "plan." These were made from as I said "the junk box" and they involve parallelling odd values to make up the total. Much easier to just buy the correct individual resistors. Here is a photo of a test tool that someone has edited in the correct values in yellow

Those three, for empty, 1/2, and the full mark are all you need. I would get at least 1 watt or larger resistors, as there is some current going through there

Great! Thanks. I need to figure out what’s up with my temp gauge and gas gauge (temp has no reading even though it seems to be hooked up and gas moves linearly, but can go from full to 3/4 in a few miles and then functions as expected below half) and this should help.
