Question Bronco gas light

I have a 1996 5.8 xlt Bronco. Since Ive had it. Never seen a gas light come on. Is there one that should come on when the gas gets low? If so, is there some thing I can check to see why is isn't working. Thanks!

They never had one but if you shine a bright light or flashlight at the instrument cluster at the right angle you can see the universal "gas pump" symbol etched in the black of the cluster along the row of idiot lights at the bottom of the cluster. (true of 92 and up models not sure about earlier models.) I only found out the Bronco didn't have one when I redid the cluster with silver gauge faces and while replacing the facing, I noticed the etching but no space or lamp socket behind the etching in the cluster assembly.
