Little Switch / Button



Noticed a little switch like an old style light switch and a button next to down in the drivers footwell near the OBD port? What do these do if anything, anyone know? Couldn't see anything in the book relating to them.

Ahh, that will be why I can't find anything for them then. Only just noticed them the other day so not had a chance to have a look underneath.

Seen something similar in another car, a toggle switch to cut power to fuel pump but not the other button. 2006 RRS SC Bonatti Grey (the 55th car/van I have owned)

I've seen switches for turning on/off an aftermarket rear entertainment system. Bottom line is it could be hooked up to anything, the only way to find out is to trace the wiring back to source.

Spoke to the garage I bought the car from and apparrently these are for a scrambler which the previous owner had installed on the car.

I believe its some sort of device that apparently makes you invisible to police radar/camera vans by jamming the signal so they cannot tell your speed?
