If the bike came with a fuel gauge, no problem. Just work the fuel gauge up out of the tank. It's held in by a rubber o-ring. The wires under it are very short so be careful. The sender unit is inside the tank. You'll have to determine which is the problem piece and replace it.
If your bike did not come with a fuel gauge, you'll have to purchase a left side fuel tank if that's the location of the original fuel gauges. I do not know where Harley puts the fuel gauges on the Softails. If they have a fuel gauge on them, they are fuel injected. I do not work on fuel injected bikes, carbs only. Sorry.
Good Luck

If the fuel gauge is in the tank where the left side fuel cap should be, rock the fuel gauge while pulling up on it. It's held in by an O-ring. Be careful as the wires that run from the gauge to the sending unit in the tank are very short.
If you need information about how the fuel gauge works and testing, contact me off forum at [email protected] I'll send you some information on it. This forum will only allow me to attach a file of 150kb. Much to small to be of much good. Remind me of what you need.
Good Luck
