If your car has the voice warning system, its located just forward of the spare tire well up high. Black box with a typical Datsun plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I dont think 79's had the warning system. I always enjoyed the "Ding" though, well not the "Ding, fuel level is low". I never had enough money.

Of course you would want to see the inside. Silly me, yes it looks like a small record player inside there. Lots of pins in the plug for all the different input signals to tell it which track to play.

siteunseen Posted November 13, 2020 Share #93 Posted November 13, 2020 That is amazing. I would have never guessed. This would be like the needle? Now I know why she never said my fuel level was low while driving. It would have skipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I know why she never said my fuel level was low while driving. It would have skipped. Exactly, just like the stylus on a record player. My co worker and I were discussing whether or not it played while driving. We were thinking it would have skipped as well. I found a few on eBay but nobody opened it up. It just has three screws on the record side and 4 on the PCB side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dutchzcarguy Posted November 14, 2020 Share #96 Posted November 14, 2020 Like on a ordinary record the needle passes through the groove, normally it only has one LONG groove. Here there are about 10? different grooves all lying next to each other, the Needle "knows" what track it must take by the different inputs.. It's simple technique but a reliable system Haha.. Thank you very much for the interesting video! BTW.. I think that it can be used during driving, how could BB (bitching Betty (so funny!)) warn otherwise for low on fuel?
