    Are you talking about the sending unit on the transmission?

    I'm not sure about the 03. Sending unit can fail. Someone here with first gen will chime in I'm sure.....

    There may be a way to check the sending unit with a hand held multimeter to check resistance. Lets see who can hopefully come up with something...

    You might already have done this but reboot the truck by disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes.
    This seems to work on a lot of electrical gremlins and it’s easy and free.
