Default Strange light?

I recently removed the center instrument panel in my 77. I found a strange light with a small circuit board attached to the back. Looks like it should mount in one of the light sockets from the instrument panel. Maybe low fuel or seat belt?

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure it's for the low fuel .

Default Gen light

I saw one of those on mine when I had it torn apart ........ it was behind the GEN panel light ....... If you go to a hole in the wall alt. rebuild shop, they use a little board with a light like in our cars to test the alt ........Robert

I think you are right. I forgot to metion I was short a light when reinstalling and purchased one at NAPA. I never saw the low fuel light work prior but it is always on now.

Will try. Thanks!
