  • Patent number: 4890088
    Abstract: A mechanism for monitoring multiple engine and drive-line conditions wherein annunciators are associated with a selectively engageable engine kill means. Illuminated light emitting diode (LED) gauges are arrayed to visually indicate various engine and other driveline conditions. Audio signal generating apparatus is selectively operative by a switching means to provide an audio signal responsive to an alert condition indicated by one or more of the visual display gauges. A flashing light also indicates a danger or alert condition indicated by the LED gauges. Complementing the audio and visual monitoring apparatus is an engine kill device that upon activation and after a preset delay will cut off power to the engine to limit potential engine damage.
