Warning lights flash when I have low Gas
Ive noticed a few time that when my gas is really low my warning lights flash once, this is while im driving so I have no idea if they flash on the out side too. Is this normal or am I gona have problems?
Has any one else noticed a single flash of the hazard lights while driving?
Also does any one have a low gas indication light? The reverse glow guages have a small area where a light might have been placed.

Never ever noticed a flash of the hazard lights for that indication. Grant's pic shows the NA and AU Spec indicator location. You're spot on with the small hole on the reverse glow gauges since I think most of them are manufactured in the US. I thought for some reason that the E-Spec MX's don't have that small "Low Fuel" warning light like on the NA and AU Spec MX's. Perhaps that hazard flash is indication is correct??? Since there are a number of other differences with dash light indications (fog lights, CEL etc)MikeUK wrote:Ive noticed a few time that when my gas is really low my warning lights flash once, this is while im driving so I have no idea if they flash on the out side too.

The Mazdaspeed steering wheel comes with a cushioned cover (which I have) that fits over the metal steering wheel spokes and also retains the use of the horn. Safety regs in Japan required this and Mazdaspeed came up with this removable cover to get by those regs. I like your safety conscious approach though.mr1in6billion wrote: Even tho I don't have an airbag i'd rather have my head hit a chunk of rubber than a honk of steel.

I didn't know that either. This added to other things like electronic/mechanical tachs, cruise on/off where the EU Foggies on/off is and different warning indicators depending if it's NA, AU, J and EU Spec. On the surface they look the same but obviously there are subtle differences/configurations.Flashpoint2 wrote:Incidently, my MX doesnt have a low fuel warning light. Kinda surprised by that.. Apparently the 96 RS just didnt get one....?
