Land Rover Part Number: AMR1496 - Fuel Tank Sender Unit
AMR1496 is a fuel tank sender unit fitted into the fuel tank of long-wheelbase Defender 110 and 130 models. The sender measures the fuel level and provides an electrical signal to the vehicle fuel gauge, converting the tank level into an electrical output routed to the instrument cluster. Correct selection for the specific wheelbase and VIN range avoids mismatched resistance values or connector types that can cause incorrect gauge readings; the unit is intended for petrol-equipped long-wheelbase Defenders produced within the verified VIN range.
Please note: Does not fit 6 cylinder BMW engines.
