Mystery Switch

[CL11QE]

I know we all love it when someone finds something unknown in our cars, so here's todays puzzle....

Anyone have any ideas?

Also unrelated to this switch, the other day i was driving home from work, listening to my ipod

which i have plugged into the front of my unit (i have the xanavi screen) when all of a sudden

the music stops. My first thoughts were that the useless apple product had frozen, but when i

looked down at it everything appeared okay. So i changed to the radio...nothing.....cd....nothing

....stacker.....nothing.....minidisc.....nothing. So i have no sounds coming out of my stereo at all,

yet all displays etc are still showing fine.....my mate says it could be a speak shorting out....any

other ideas??

Thanks in advance

so does that switch relate your problem ? or you trying to kill two birds with one stone. ??

aftermarket switches from japan. bloody annoying.

you thought of pulling the kick pannel out and following the wires back to the soucre ? or tried using it at all ?

I have that switch on mine, it turns of the factory alarm / horn.

Your switch is in the off position now, so if you turn it back on and lock the door with your factory keyless entry and then try to open the car with out the remote the alarm will sound.

Its quite anoying as I switch it back on all the time with my leg and the horn goes off when I unlock the car with my aftermarket alarm!

ah okay yeh it could be something with the horn/alarm, ill have to check it out.

the stereo problem though is unrelated i just thought id mention the two problems in the 1 topic

could be a dodgey wire behind the head unit.

had the same problem in my old car.
