Help with replacing the Low GAS bulb in the instrument panel
'98 Accord, the low gas light quit working a while back, so
I ordered another bulb (assuming that was the problem). I've got the bulb, but before I take out the instrument panel, is there anything important that I should know? Thanks guys, I always appreciate all of your help. -- **:::::>>:§«:*=3F`³=3F³=3F`*:»§:<<:::::** .·°~ §LëAzZ=3F WëA§ëL ~°·. **:::::>>:§«:*=3F`³=3F³=3F`*:»§:<<:::::** {ô¿ô} WrOnG NuMbEr RoCoCcO, yOu .·°~ §LëAzZ=3F WëA§ëL ~°·. |

Help with replacing the Low GAS bulb in the instrument panel
I don't have one on my Civic, but if I remember correctly, on my other
vehicles (past and present)that is a light that you cannot check like all the other bulbs by turning the ignition on. |

Help with replacing the Low GAS bulb in the instrument panel
Elmo has a point, but you might not be taking the fuel tank low enough
unless you have already run out of gas? Most experts say to keep your tank at least 1/3 full to keep the fuel pump cool. Normally when my tank gets near empty and I go on a freeway on or off ramp, the light will go on as the fuel sloshes to the side of the tank. good luck. |

Help with replacing the Low GAS bulb in the instrument panel
Remove a couple screws up top. Pop/pull the trim ring/bezel STRAIGHT
OUT toward you...if not you'll break the tabs. bezel will fight you. if you break it, epoxy it back. Tilt the cluster forward and remove the 3 harness clips and then emove whole cluster. Bulb replacement is easy. However if your guage reads all squirrelly from 1/2 full to 100% full it's probably the fuel sending unit failure typical with this car. i have this failure on my 98 Accord and haven't seen my low gas light in 6-9 months and it came on for one cycle the other day...haven't seen it since. kevin |
