Low fuel warning lamp
The low fuel warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises an amber LED and a clear legend. The ECM illuminates
the LED when the fuel gauge pointer has reached 8 degrees from zero. The LED remains illuminated until fuel is
added to move the fuel gauge pointer past 20 degrees from zero. This provides the driver with a visible warning that
the fuel level in the tank is low.
When the ignition is switched on, the ECM illuminates the LED to provide a self-check, providing there is no fault it
will remain illuminated for 3 seconds or until the ignition is switched off.
The sender unit resistance thresholds for switching the lamp on and off are shown in the table below:
Lamp on

Lamp off

Resistance, ohms
Fuel gauge pointer angle, degrees
The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 27. The ECM provides the earth path to
illuminate the warning lamp.
