ChrisMK4 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Hi guys, having my Supra for 2 years already I just now noticed a button in my dashboard, please see the pictures below. I could not figure out yet what it is doing. Has anyone seen this guy before or has an idea what it might be there for? I do not think it is stock. It is connected to three cables which dissapear somewhere behind the dash, I was not able to follow them very far yet. Thanks for your suggestions!

berg Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 That will be the rear fog light switch 90% are put there, on imports when they are registered in UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drift_bear Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 In case nobody has mentioned it, it's the rear fog light switch lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rider Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I have a switch just like that on the chip fryer. If you were in the UK I'd say it's got to be fog lights switch on a jspec import. As you are in Germany presumably you have a Euro but the pics look like a rhd jspec dash panel. So lets stick to its the fog light switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMK4 Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 And the right anser was: Rear foglight switch. Thanks guys! But now I found other mysterious buttons and a lamp, see attached picture below. As I found out the cables of both the button (to me it looks like there is a fan on one of the buttons) and the lamp are disconnected. Now let my bring out alle the English grammar skills I have: What may the button and the lamp have been used for? BTW: Especially on the AT Supras they might have named the "SLIP CONT OFF" button "BURNOUT" button as well because I see no other situation exept a burnout to use this button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The buttons on the left and the lamp on the right are for an alarm system. The buttons look very similar to the Clifford alarm set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rider Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 You can buy a replacement cheaply - with a working light. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/282347461890?lpid=122&chn=ps&adgroupid=42305674521&rlsatarget=pla-278515759189&adtype=pla&poi=&googleloc=1007072&device=c&campaignid=738081070&crdt=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
