    Better do as you're told or she'll get cranky...

    Any other symptoms at all? Have had the fuel gauge/warning go crazy, but was in conjunction with a bunch of other faults caused by a failed ABS module.

    And is the fuel gauge showing empty or is it just the refuel warning?

    Could be a sender unit issue.

    While not common, they do fail.
