The warning light for fuel level being too low is always on, even when fuel tank has plenty of gas or even full. The gas gauge is working just fine.
SOURCE: gas gauge
The float that moves the gas hand is possibly stuck in the tank. If there's isn't an access hole in the rear of the vehicle you'll have to drop the tank. Unless it becomes free on it's own. Hope this is helpful. Please rate. Thanks

Usually if the gas gage does not work yes it is true it may be the sensor if it is electronicly controlled. the sncor will more than likley be in the tank. here is how to remove your gas tank.

yes it is a faulty float in the tank the next thing that u gotta watch out for is ith pump to go out my jimmy had 142000 miles on it and i replaceg the fuel pump myselt saving about 3 to 400 dollars the lowest i could find the pump for was 250 dallors + the lock ring was 25 dollars and thats a dealer part unless u go to the junk yard cause mine was so rusted that is just crumbled when i took it off so expeck to pay ab 300 for the parts and if u have a mechanic do add an additional 3 to 400 dollars to it.

Youre gauge is controlled by a plunger in the fuel tank which is attached to the sensor and the fuel gauge. it sounds like when the plunger goes down half way its either getting stuck down lower then it should. Needs replacing. Any mechanic can do this install for you.

Bad fuel level sensor. Unfortunately it is located inside the gas tank. Fairly common problem on GM's. Due to sulphur in fuel. Corrodes the sensor tabs. Expensive to have repalced and NOT a do-it-yourself project, unless you have dropped a tank before.
