nipper Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I just bought a 97 and it does not appear to have one....which sucks. it does, or the bulb is burned out. They have been standard equipment for ages on subarus. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 my 96 does not have one either, which is scary, cause i apparantly have a 13.5 gallon tank, and i regularly fill it to 14.5 gallons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frag Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Be aware that the low fuel light (a gas pump icon in the left lower corner of the gas gauge window) does not shine like the other lights just before starting. You have to run the car almost emply to see it light. I did this on my 96 Brighton once and I now know I have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think you have a 13.5 www.cars101.com double check nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I HAVE HAD THE GAUGE RESTING ON EMPTY. STILL NO LIGHT. AND WHEN I FILL UP I CAN ONLY PUT IN 13.5 GALLONS. HMM? BUT IT SAYS IT SHOULD HAVE A 15.9 GALLON TANK...HMM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT IT SAYS IT SHOULD HAVE A 15.9 GALLON TANK...HMM The gauges are notorisly inaccurate, If you feel brave, fill a gallon gas can and run the car all the way down. someplace around 14 gallons the light will come on. Also make sure your tank doesnt have any dents in it. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT IT SAYS IT SHOULD HAVE A 15.9 GALLON TANK...HMM The caps lock button is the one right next to the 'a' button..... Do a search about the gauges, this topic has been covered many many times.

Legacy777 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I'm going to look at the fuel pump connector wiring. That will say for sure whether it's there or not, but I'm pretty sure there's not one there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 if you register your car / vin at https://my.subaru.com/, you should be able to view a copy of your owners manual online. the manual is bound to address the low fuel light.

(Which is entirely feasible...) That is strange, though. I know the previous owner, who said it didn't have one...That covers the last 180k miles. I guess something happened to it in the first 40k, before she or I owned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of my dash with it clearly marked, but I can point out to you exactly where to look. It's a little black square about the size of a tack. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a339/Planarian98/Car/DSCN1540.jpg <-- immediately to the left of the gas can in the gauge cluster. You can't quite see it on that picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
