    Fuel gauge not working

    91 325i fuel gauge on dash not working reads empty. checked continuity on both sending units at tank. Passenger side shows continuity between the two sending unit pins. Passenger side does not show continuity between pins. Is this the way it should be? Or is my passenger side tank sending unit shot

    The sensors are wired in series, so if one goes out the gauge dies. Replace the sensor showing an open circuit.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      So just to confirm the one with no continuity must be bad??
