just to add to this post some info i missed out, its a td5 so the gauge is part of the pump, damn things jus been changed , it worked fine up until the other day, now like i say the damn gauge aint workin an we all know ya need one o those on a landy, and when its been tweaked and your a little foot happy the gauge can be almost as fast as the speedo lol , is it looking like i gotta drop the tank again ???? , DOH !!!

The single wire to the fuel tank sender is grounded to earth/chassis. Packed snow may have dislodged the wire and now it is touching something, the snow could be packed around the sender connection causing a short, or the wire insulation could have chafed on somewhere causing the wire core to short on something metal.
