Low gas warning light
I have a 2001 ES. Over the past several years the low gas warning light will come on even if I have a full tank. Some times it is steady and other times it flickers. It acts like a loose ground. Any ideas as to where I should look for this possible grounding problem? David

the low gas sensor is like a float inside your gas tank right near by the fuel pump.
you can access it by pulling out your rear seats and you'll see like 8 8mm bolts holding down the entire fuel pump assembly and a plug, and two fuel lines, one is send one is return. disconnect them all (make sure to use a 14mm flare wrench), and the fuel pump comes out and you can then inspect what's wrong with the sensor or maybe replace the whole unit once u pull another unit out from the junkers maybe
