What kind of sender do u have ???

If its a 2 wire sender ,,the one showing the G on there means gauge ,,not ground !!!!!!!!

And the other one ,that says WK on it is for the warning light or buzzer if u have one !!!!!


So i think u got the wires wrong !!! A sender does not need a ground wire in that case !!
