Gas gauge my gas gauge on a 2003 honda crv continuously fluctuates. the car may be on half a tank but then reads that it is full even though i know the car is correctly on half a tank. it does this all the time even if the car wasted only a bit of fuel. i think its the senor that is in the gas tank or on the pump. not too sure. i just wanted to get a correct diagonsis. thanks

Most likely it's the voltage stabilizer for the gauge itself... some are replaceable (plug in type), some are part of the printed circuit... if so get another cluster from a junk yard and swap it out... Hope this helps...;-)

2003 Honda crv fuel gauge doesn't register full when filling up tank also twice while driving the gauge goes to empty and fuel light comes on
Could be the sending unit in the tank or the gauge on the dash.
A mechanic would test each component by disconnecting the harness at the tank.

Dash gas gauge stops showing proper gas level once it hits half a tank. Then gauge will fluctuate between empty (light will come on), full and anywhere in between but seems fine from full tank to half
If the trouble with the gauge started after you worked on it then you likely damaged or created a restriction to the movement of the sending unit. You will have to remove the tank and double-check your work.

Gas Gauge fluctuates, Overheating even with enough antifreeze & Heater blowing freezing cold air.
GAS GAGE IS EITHER A BAD SENDING UNIT OR "SLOSH MODULE" IF A FORD. HEAT ISSUE IS A VACUUM LOCK IN THE COOLING SYSTEM AND NOT ALLOWING THE AIR TO ESCAPE AND NO WATER TO CIRCULATE.CHECK FOR LEAKS ,THE THERMOSTAT,AND WATER PUMP FOR PROPER CIRCULATION
