Any body know the location of where the low fuel light should be centre console or in the vent section next to the dash vents.

 

If so any body have a spare they'd let go?

Never seen a low fuel indicator in any zed before.. Only lights in the console were the choke and rear demister. In the center vent was the brake warning light. I do have what I think is a US market center panel with a cat over temp light and something else. Will take a look again tomorrow.

Yeah Dimitri's right I had a '78 2+2 and it definitely didnt have one, no S30s do.

No that's not quite correct - I have a vent fascia panel among my spare parts which has two red warning lights in it - 'fuel' & 'ext temp'. I don't know the origin of the car it came from.

Console also has hazard warning switch.

Would be a californian car as they had pretty draconian pollution laws even back in the mid 70's, so more than likely off a 280Z.

This particular vent panel with warning lights came with a misc pile of mostly interior parts I bought about 7 yrs ago from a bloke who had parted-out a rusty 2+2 (to turn it into a paddock-basher apparently). The dash was RHD. So perhaps the car was a late-edition Z used import ex Japan. That might explain the extra warning lights, the door cards had electric window switches, & there were under-dash electric mirror toggles. Otherwise all the controls & gauges were the same as on my NZ-new '74 except for the clock which was a more elaborate design.

That would explain it then,

 

I've seen a few centre vent sections for sale with the fuel warning light, but prob us models or late model ones

 

Thanks for the info :)
