I thought I could cut a wire behind the fuel guage to deactivate the warning lights??

i would reconsider that approach ...

just think about that day when you go down that hill at 80mph getting ready to throw her into the next corner and you hit the brakes and .... NADA ...

your last tought before you fly over the guard rail and down into the gorge:
"hadn't i cut the wire for the *idiot* light, i would have noticed the failing MC hours ago ..."

it's called a "warning light" for a reason ...


find the real problem and fix it,
