I have no idea what this is or does. I can't find anything on it. It is a turning switch with a wire attached to it. I havent tore my dash apart yet to figure out where it goes. It is a turn style switch. I wondered if it was some type of kill switch since I can't start my car for the life of me. Do any of you have this or is this stock?

Yes. Just switch the wires around. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I won't crack a joke about the knob being in the drivers seat. Love this group.
