RE: IML: Voltage Limiter Question

[Tim Durrer <tdkd99@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Dick!

You are quite a resource for us! I was just concerned
about the rate at which the test light flashed because
when I compared it to the rate the voltage limiter in
the low fuel relay supplying the fuel gauge pulsated
it seemed a little slow. My car has two voltage
limiters and the one in the low fuel relay causes the
test light to flash rapidly (once every second)
whereas the one plugged in the printed circuit board
averages one flash every 3 seconds.

Thanks Again!

Tim
