Instead I think I will connect the red light to the cooling fans. You cannot hear them running when the engine is running. Knowing when they are on should prove useful.

A fair amount of people, including myself, will say that they know when the fans come on when the AMP gauge goes slightly negative and when they turn off, AMP gauge returns to previous position.

You should get to know what you have first before taking the RED light out of the circuit.
