I have a 1999 Suzuki Vitara.
Fuel gauge works OK, but is there a warning light when level gets low?
I don't know how accurate it is yet

I can't see a warning light in the workshop manual circuit diagrams. This manual is a 1994 print so the later ones may have one ?

My old vit didn't have one but that was a 93 model.

Ta,
So unless someone comes on and says 'My Vit has a light' i will assume there isn't one.
Maybe it was an option

Nope, no warning light at all...which is a bit silly really.

Suzuki. When it's empty it's empty.
My sister had a 54 jimny. When the fuel light came on you had about 600yds.

Ive had a few cars like that with a "You're f#@%ed light"
My trucks light starts flickering at half a tank from all the bouncing and slowly the time its on and off starts to change untill its on most of the time and flickering off occasionally.
When its static on I start to worry.
