Default Low fuel light seems dim

Hey guys wondering if this occurs on your gauge cluster. I installed a JDM ITR gauge in my civic (gasp I dont have a ITR but i wish) anyway jsut came across my first low fuel light and it seems dim when I was driving in the daylight

When you reach the point when it first comes on, it starts out dim and may flicker or go out entirely. Keep driving and as the fuel level gets lower, it then comes on bright and steady.

It gets brighter as you get lower on fuel

You didn't read my post, did you?

Yes, as Xenondepot and I both said, it gets brighter as the fuel level gets lower. So there's no need to get anything brighter.

I know its been said but you know what they say third times a charm....

IT GETS BRIGHTER THE LESS GAS YOU HAVE

or another way to say it.....

IT STARTS OFF REALLY DIM AND AS MORE GAS IS BURNED IT SLOWLY GETS BRIGHTER

or another way to say it.....

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.. ITS NOT THE LIGHT BULB THATS JUST HOW IT WORKS...


hope one of those helps

No. Yours is different. Everyone else's is the same, though.
