Default 88 xj pioneer gas gauge won't work please help!

I recently purchased a 1988 cherokee pioneer with the big gas gauge, and when the car is off the gas gauge says full when i turn the key over it goes to about where 3 o' clock would be if it was a clock. I have tried to trouble shoot it a few times and looked at other forums and still haven't came up with anything the rest of the cluster works fine its just that gauge.
Please Help!
-Jake

Check for correct voltage going into the level sensor. Chances are that the contacts in the tank on the pump assy. are dirty.
