Captain Obvious Posted September 26, 2015 Share #25 Posted September 26, 2015 If you're looking to get rid of the redundancy, you could get the upper warning lamps from a 75. Left side says "CATALYST" and right side says "FLOOR TEMP". That way you could fill all the available locations with unique indicators. I'm an idea guy. Never said they were good ideas though...

Chickenman Posted September 26, 2015 Share #27 Posted September 26, 2015 I like the Aud/VW solution. They have several blanks for auxiliary switches in the dash. Various things such as front and rear Fog lights that are options. But they sell a matching accessory switch labelled " Funk ". I kid you not. Some guys use these to trigger their amplifiers or Methanol Injection ( Turbo's ) etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickenman Posted June 3, 2018 Share #30 Posted June 3, 2018 Bringing this back from the dead. But on a 1976 280Z does the Low Fuel light come on with the bulb test when ignition is turned on? Everything else does except the low Fuel Light. Pulled it out and tested bulb in its harness. It does work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Berk Posted July 29, 2020 Share #31 Posted July 29, 2020 I'd likely replace the blanks with switches marked ejector seat, oil slick, warp drive, flux capacitor, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is not another wire on the negative leg that could complete the circuit during engine start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
