I never heard of a low fuel light in a 69 Camaro...that's a new one to me.

Never saw one myself however ... the lamp should be located in the same row as the rest of the "Idiot lights". Not in the modual as shown in the link in the first post.

Below is from curcuit ops in the wiring manual.

The LOW FUEL LEVEL MODULE senses
the resistance of the FUEL SENDER portion
of the fuel level system and illuminates the
indicator light in the INSTRUMENT PANEL.

I've had quite a few that had it. I thought it was standard on later 69's with guages ?

Maybe it was standard ??? I looked in the options list and did not find it listed by itself.

It was part of the console gauge package. Since the fuel gauge is down low on the console, Chevy needed to add the warning light in the dash.

Exactly. The console guages fed a low fuel light in the dash.

But when did they start including it in the console gage package ?
All 69 Camaro Console/ gage cars do not have this included.

Mike, My Dark Green Nova has the low fuel light and if I remember correctly a March build date. I would guess Camaro would be the same???
