fuel gauge needle stuck....

Hello :)

 

I have a little annoying problem here, seems my fuel gauge needle or something connected to needle refused to work :( It was working fine for some time, showing fuel level from full till almost empty and then suddenly stuck in one position. After refuelling car needle didn't move at all. I took out dials to recheck needle fixing and put in again, set it on full (with full fuel tank) and put it back together. Needle went down 2mm when readjusting itself and then stopped for good again, so I assume it is still not working. Low fuel warning light is still working fine. So my question is - how fuel level is measured in Supra? Is it some kind of sensor floating in fuel tank? I suspected, that this sensor can be stuck somewhere... Or maybe there is some kind of fuse responsible for fuel gauge? What cable colour is it and on which of 3 connectors behind dials?
