JP1 pin 1 (+3.3) ----- [ 680 Ohms ] ---+--- [ LED ] ----- pin 28 (GND)
                                       |
                                    pin 12 (EGPIO_8)

I can connect a 680Ohm resistor first end to pin1, a second end to pin12,
and the led positive side to pin12 and negative to pin28(gnd). Now I have
only 470ohm resistor at home, I tested now with a 4V li-ion battery and my
red led power is 4mA. I can use this (470Ohm) resistor or buy a 680Ohm.
Tomorrow I remove the OVMS module from my car, and create some test, if the
resistor (470Ohm) is OK.
I used this calculator for led series resistor calculation (I used a red
Led): http://ledcalc.com
