I am in the process of changing the standard bulbs in my gauges to LED bulbs. On the 914-6, the far left gauge has the generator bulb that must stay as a filament bulb to keep the charging system working properly. I want to confirm that only the bulb behind the “G”, on the far right of the gauge, is the only bulb that must stay a standard bulb for the charging system to function properly. Can someone confirm for me.

I am also not sure what the indicator light to the left of the “G” indicates. Please chime in if you know.
