[DML] Re: Low fuel warning indicator

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

A very simple way to test the light is to remove the spare tire,
remove the cover, and with the key on slowly lift the sender unit out
of the tank until the low fuel light goes on. While you are in there
ther is a test button on the brake resovoir to test the low brake
fluid light. Neither light does not "self test" when you start the
car. The other condition that light s the brake light is the emergency
brake.
