I got in my 2012 fx 35 today and fuel gage said empty with warning light on. I put gas in it and still says empty. Not a fuse
SOURCE: I have 2001 bmw x5 4.4i, fuel gage
The fuel tank sensor is probably malfunctionibng. This sensor is located in the fuel tank. When the sensor receives a signal from the fuel tank level, this is being transferred to the fuel gauge

It sounds to me like you have a short in your wiring harness at you fuel tank. there is a plug on top of your fuel tank that controls you fuel pump and your sending unit that tells you how much fuel is in the tank. This plug can be a real p.i.a to get to on some vehicles, you may have to take the vehicle to a shop to fix it, if you are not mechanically inclined.

this is a giant comon problem right now with gm vechiles it is in the fuel sending unit the unit needs to be replaced ( about 400$) and the gas tank needs to be dropped out to get to it for many more people with the same proble go to topix.com there is about 96 of us with the same problem

The gauge circuit is shunted on most cars, this is wierd, but needed to stabilize the readings... Your description sounds like normal function. Drivers would complain if the qauge were to be instant, going around corners, starting, stopping, all move fuel, and the gauge would indicate this, cauing driver alarm...Been this way for ever, although yours sounds like it is on the far side of the scale...if it reads correctly after a while, you could replace everything and you would have the same performance.
