• Q: How to replace the fuel level sensor on 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche 2500?

  A: The first step to replace the fuel level sensor on the Avalanche and Escalade EXT requires removing the fuel sender from the vehicle and setting it on a clean work surface. The first step is to separate the fuel level sensor electrical connector from its location on the module connector. Then disconnect the retaining clip while being mindful to carefully unhook the locking tabs present on the reservoir which prevents improper functioning of the sender. Remove the fuel sender reservoir retaining tabs that are located on both sides of the reservoir before extracting the fuel level sensor wires which should pass through these tabs to separate the module from its reservoir. The retaining tabs need to be squeezed before sliding the fuel level sensor off the reservoir solution. The fuel level sensor installation requires users to put the module on the reservoir until retaining tabs lock into position before placing the module into reservoir. The fuel level sensor wires should be guided around the retaining tabs before you insert the reservoir snap tabs into their positions at both sides of the reservoir. Install first the retaining clip of the fuel level sensor then connect its electrical connector to the module connector before putting in the fuel sender.
