In Reply to: Question - low fuel indicator lamp posted by Jim Cash on September 24, 2000 at 17:06:34:

Looks like the 97s glow and other years don't. What are implications of this Jim?


I was wondering if a few folk would check something for me.

Look at your low fuel indiator lamp (the little round LED on the left of the fuel guage).

Mine glows "very faintely" when the car is turned off. You can only see it if it is very dark in the car (or you get up very close to the cluster and totally shade it).

Please let me know if yours is glowing or not. (4-6 answers is all I need).

Do not worry if yours is glowing - it is caused by a feedback from the engine computer and does not affect operation - I just want to know if there are any others that are the same.

If yes - please include your year, model and Vin#.

Cheers & Thanks
Jim Cash
