Anyone know what this switch is?

Post by SJRobinson »

Hi,

Does anybody know what the white knob switch does? (assuming it was there when the car rolled off the production line in '66)

Thanks,

I would hazard a guess that it is for a reversing light or fog lights of some sort. It certainly would not have been fitted on the production line IMHO.

It probably lights up and was for a reversing light - and the one next to it was likely for a rear fog warning light. Both completely unnecessary.

Thanks guys, it doesn't seem to control anything (maybe the reversing bulb is broken) the one on the right control the rear heated window. I might just remove them...
