(Home) Unknown switch

Little switch on left side of steering column with red "on" light. What is it?

Don't touch that its the ejector button!

Seriously though, its for disengaging the gear selector from Park. Well covered on the archives.

I have a red button next to the gear selector in my Litie. I have always wandered what it was for - and I have had the vehicle for four years!

Dave, Eric said left of column, not left of gear stick.

However I can't think what is to the left of column with an on switch, unless it is where your importer put the rear foglamp switch, remember this is an add on as they don't have them in Japan.

Otherwise post a picture & we'll try to help.

Regards Rob.

The red switch next to the gear selector on the Liteace, Al, is apparently a power switch. I've been told that if you are cruising, and need a quick power boost, press that and you have more power. I've not tried it but this came from someone who knew what it was for. x

Just looked through the 'Japanese' manual and can't find anything that relates to a red light on the steering column, sorry Eric. x
