welcome to the zone, yes a very good place to be!!

both mine also only have a blue and white one pluus the couple of small wires connected in there too. no yellow big plug.

as for fuel guage i am sure brian moooooooore will give you his usual excellent answer, he is the electric, engine, transmission, seat, etc guru!

as for my 10 pence worth... yes a flat battery could cause fuel guage problems as well as temp guage and tacho etc

Yellow socket is for the OBC.
Get your SI board sorted before you look any further for gauge problems, and, as for engine guru - look at my thread "missfire" to see what an utter dog's breakfasr I've made of sorting my own engine problems!
