[quote=ShawnQ]Steve, ya out there?!?!
The dummy button our cars have due to the lack of the automated spoiler would make a great place for auxiliary I/C fan switch, remote TC/ESP disabling, etc.
Has anyone tried to use this switch for anything? Any luck?
I know Steve did a 'remote' Fuse removal to mimmick the removal of the ESP/TC fuses...sure would be nice to just wire this dummy switch and have a second Traction Control button - one would be 'partial' and one would be 'completely off'.
Thought i'd ask..
Yeah Shawn, I started looking into using that button for disableing the ESP/TC and then again when I added the two fans to my aftercooler/HE. I even looked into using one of the homelink buttons. The main two things that kept me from doing it was the way these car's are wired, most funtions of buttons/switches makes & breaks a ground not like most cars I've played wth in the past were they make & break a hot. The other thing was the configuration of those particular rocker switches, I thought they may not just be a SPDT, SPST or whatever. They may be a simple switch that operate's relay's or module's, but I think they are a little more complex than that, but I can't say for sure. The TOW switch would have been the one I would have checked out first and if it was a simple switch, ordered one and used it where the dummy is located. I know the homelink buttons make a ground to operate and so does the buttons that the doors use to turn on the dome lights. And to get off the subject just a little, the headlight switch & fuse box is all in one, not a one of the fuse's are hot till you turn the key on and then only two fuse's are hot, the rest of them all operate form the head light switch. I know I don't get out much

, but this car is the first car I've ever seen that the brake lights don't work without the key turned on.
