- potato3732842 10mo agoMany if not most cars had green gauges in the 80s and 90s. They all had some sort of knob, wheel or other adjustment.
- procaryote 10mo agoSaab went further though and just light up the relevant instruments. If you're good on fuel, it remains dark etc.
- calvinmorrison 10mo agoSaab also had a battery warning light, like most cars. However, if the battery was not charging, the light would not come on. Also if the bulb burned out, your alternator wouldn't work. My saabs, of the 5 I own, only have working lights in about 2 of them. One has no tacho (from factory), one no speedo (broken) Turns out you pretty much dont need any of that stuff anyway.
- Sparkle-san 10mo agoSaab also had a feature where it would turn off all the lights in the instrument panel, but you could turn them back on by hitting the top of the dash. Might be a Swedish thing as Volvo had it too.
