Seat Arona Fuel Gauge Issue
Summary of the thread
A 2017 Seat Arona owner experienced issues with the check engine light and engine stalling at idle, linked to a fault in the fuel level sensor. The owner suspected a defective fuse as the cause. After considering potential wiring issues and sensor faults, the problem was resolved by replacing a defective fuse, restoring the fuel gauge's functionality.

That's interesting. Where exactly on the fuel tank is the wiring harness located? I'm not entirely familiar with the Arona's fuel tank assembly, and I want to check the correct connection.

On the Corsa, it was accessible from underneath the car, near the rear axle, where the fuel tank is. However, given the error codes, I'm now leaning towards a faulty sensor. It might be worth getting it checked by a workshop; they can pinpoint the exact cause.

Closing the loop, it was a defective fuse, as I thought. Replaced it, and the fuel gauge now works. Total cost: 52€ for the fuse and diagnostic. Thanks for the input, I appreciate it.

I had a similar issue with my Opel Corsa. The fuel gauge was all over the place. Did you check the wiring harness leading to the fuel tank? It could be a loose connection.
