You know how there is a wire coming from the fuel sending unit that goes the fuel gauge?
Cause i connected the battery, and tried to check the voltage coming from the wire, and there is none, then i tried starting the car and still no voltage.
How does it work?

It works on resistance. You need to check it with an ohm meter.

Ignition switch power -> Constant Voltage Unit (Blk/Grn) -> Fuel Gauge

Fuel Gauge (Yel/Wht) -> Fuel Sender Unit -> Ground
