Angry gas gauge issue

I have A 2003 ultra with a gas gauge that clouds up. this is my 3rd gauge that I;ve installed all with the same problem. Is there anything I can due to the gas gauge to stop this issue???????????:icon_frow n:

the gauge will clear its self when the sun kits its for a hour or so, but returns the next day.........

You changed out this gauge 3 times because of this issue? The parts guy should have told you that this is common for most of your gauges. Mine all do it. Welcome to the club.

Mine does the same thing. Clouds up, then clears after an hour or so on the road. Next day the same but not as bad. Don't ride for 3-4 days and back to square one. Keep riding & no more problem...

Mine did the same thing. I just don't pay any attention to it. I had several crotch rockets that did the same thing.

Same problems here...I don't use the gas gauge anyway so it's not much of a concern to me.
