Concerning a 1985 300d:

My understanding to that question is "no," but I have seen the question asked here before, and don't recall a clear answer.

The charging system doesn't work when the dash light bulb is burned. (That is my understanding anyway.)

Does the glow system depend on the bulb in the dash being functional as aprt of the circuit as well?

My comprehension is that it's an indicator light only.
