The fuel gauge has a wire running from it to the sending unit at the fuel tank. That wire sits at the top of the tank which is just below the trunk floor. If the wire connection touches the trunk floor it will ground the wire and the gauge will read as full. It could also be that the wire has a bare spot somewhere between the sending unit and the gauge and the bare spot is touching metal and causing a ground and full gauge reading. Sounds like you have some detective work to do!
