Td5 fuel gauge

The fuel gauge on my td5 110 is starting to play up. Sometimes its ok, other times it reads off the scale of fullness and will at some point in the journey go to correct.
I suspect its an earth wire, but where do we look in this circuit?

Hello,
I had a similar problem where the fuel-gauge kept reading low and it turned out to be a corroded earth-strap to the ECU. I put in a new earth cable direct from the battery to the ECU and that sorted it (and a load of other problems).
