Granada Console Fuel warning light

[jonhohlf]

I need to know how the flow fuel warning light that is in the center console for a 77 or 78 Granada functions. I recently acquired a console and will be installing it in a car that did not previously have one and would like to have the fuel light functional, is there a module somewhere within the car that runs the warning light? if so, do you know where the module is located and how it is connected? or is the fuel sender in the tank different with the warning light?

Or is there a better place to ask this question?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Jon

I have a Versailles, but I'm sure it works the same way. There's an electronic module for the low fuel light in the console underneath the storage bin area. You have to turn the console over to see it.

There's also a wiring harness under the dash that connects to the console.

From what I recall, the low fuel light operates off the fuel gauge, not the sending unit. When the fuel gauge records a level of a 1/4 tank or less the light glows.

Thanks for the info it looks like exactly what I need, Didn't even think of checking the MMB, even though I am putting this into a Maverick.
