my wifes 1985 gt has low fuel light, and right next to it there is a display showing open doors/hatch/fuel door, if the head lights are on/ burnt out/ which one isnt functional. a taillight out warning light, and turn signal out warning light.

i got it. i have all the gauges too. fuel. tach, speed, temp, oil pressure, volts. one thing i don't get is everyone i know who ever had one of these cars says their oil light would come on when they get a quart low. mine never did, but the the light does come on the display at start up so i know the bulb isn't burned out. it doesn't come on when i reach a quart low in my 03 mach either.

my 88 has one. it comes on when i'm at 1/4 tank. it stays on for a little while, then turns off. then it comes back on and stays on when i'm at less than 1/8 tank.
