It is only that line to the starter solenoid that powers up the low fuel light as a proof-out circuit while cranking the engine. The other 3 systems have nothing to do with that circuit.

Marty : Maybe the attached might help clarify it. Note that the red wire from the starter solenoid only goes to the plug for the low fuel relay (and thus the low fuel bulb) ; the blue w/red stripe wire (shown in violet) from the ignition switch provides the "hot" side to the other 3 bulbs.

Thanks Bob,
I probably knew that 12 years ago when I restored my car, just remembered that the red wire was the test power. I do not drive that car very much.
