That sensor is the same as a fuel level gauge, it varies the ohms/volts allowed thru it for the gauge to read. The wire has to supply the power to do that. If the wire out of the gauge is dead, there is another issue. Hopefully, the wire didn't get grounded with ignition live during the engine bay cleaning and shorted the gauge out. Is there an in-line fuse that may have blown ??

There is not any power at the terminal coming out of the gauge. Something in the gauge is amiss. I'll pull it apart and investigate.
