The AutoMeter Mini Pro-Lite (Silver) 3238 is a compact warning light built for racers and builders who need an unmistakable visual alert when an engine condition crosses the line. At 4.25 inches long, 2 inches tall, and 0.75 inches in diameter, it fits where a full-size gauge won't, making it a clean addition to a tight dash, a roll bar, or a custom panel. Paired with a pressure or temperature switch, it flags low oil pressure or rising coolant temperature with a bright incandescent bulb. It can also run as a shift light when wired to a compatible switch. Browse the full gauges and accessories lineup for matching senders and gauges.
The 3238 runs on 8 to 18V DC and draws 265 mA, so it works with standard 12-volt automotive systems. It uses an incandescent bulb in a Socket 53 base and ships with red, yellow, and blue bulb boots so you can color-code the alert to oil, temperature, or shift function. A yellow night cover is included to cut glare during night runs. The silver case keeps the housing compact while staying visible against a dark dash. Mounting bracket and hardware come in the box, and the unit is switch-operated rather than self-sensing, so it triggers off temperature and pressure switches sold separately. For the matching senders, see our oil pressure sender and related switch options.
This light earns its place in a race car, street rod, or any build where the driver needs a hard warning without scanning a cluster mid-corner. Wire it to an oil pressure switch and you get an instant red flag the moment pressure drops; wire it to a temperature switch and it calls out an overheat before the gauge needle moves. The interchangeable boots let you run more than one for different functions and tell them apart at a glance. If you want a darker housing for a black panel, compare the black Mini Pro-Lite, or grab a cover kit to add colors.
It serves as a visual warning indicator for engine conditions such as low oil pressure or rising coolant temperature. The light is switch-operated, so it triggers when a paired pressure or temperature switch closes. It can also function as a shift light when wired to a compatible switch.
No. The 3238 is the warning light only. It works with temperature and pressure switches that are sold separately. You select the switch that matches the engine condition you want to monitor, then wire the light to it for the alert.
Yes. The 3238 ships with red, yellow, and blue bulb boots, so you can color-code the alert to its function and swap colors when you change what the light monitors. A yellow night cover is also included to reduce glare during night driving.
It runs on 8 to 18V DC with a 265 mA current draw, which makes it compatible with standard 12-volt automotive electrical systems. It uses an incandescent bulb in a Socket 53 base.
The function and specifications are the same. The difference is the case finish. The 3238 has a silver housing, while the black version suits darker dash panels. Both include the red, yellow, and blue boots and a night cover.
