It is either the gage itself, the fuel sending unit (in the gas tank, accessed via removal of either the back seat or trunk liner), or the wires to each. What year Civic do you have? Find the model closest to yours and look up the testing procedures for the gage and fuel sending unit at http://ww1.honda.co.uk/car/owner/workshop.html, under the electrical, gauges section.

By Fuel Assembly Unit you mean the sending unit? If you have replaced the gauge and the sending unit, then my friend it is the wiring that connects both. Have you changed anything before this problem happened.
