Anybody know what this switch on the dash could be for on a 74 2.0?

It's obviously for whatever the DAPO wired it up to.

But seriously, that's not stock and could hook up to anything. From an ignition kill switch to an electric windshield washer pump.

Warp Drive?

Yeah, I didnt think it was stock. I guess I can trace the wires. Thanks!

Trunk release??

Fog Lights??

ejector seat

electric antenna?

Could be one of these ...

Well kiss my goto hell. If it isn't the elusive lens squirter. Andy gets 100 points and any points anyone else might have accumulated. Slight location variable, huh?

Naaa, i stole that pic from another thread ...


The switches look similar, but are not quite the same. Just another possibility, i guess.

My 74 has the same switch. Assumed it was for the non-existent headlight washer.

I figured it was for the halogen blinker fluid release mechanism..

That or the flux capacitor switch

My 1974 has the "cutout" exactly where shown in the picture of the headlight washer.

Wipers water?

I'm going with lens squirter. Havent had a chance to look and see where it goes. The switch is spring loaded.

From the pics, looks like the nozzle is on the bumper pad. I dont recall a nozzle on the bumper pad on mine. I'll look when I get home.

Thanks for the replies

I am 99% confident that is the headlight squirter switch. Even in my 76 914 it had the cutout for the switch, although covered by the dash material.
