Talk about the 406's electrical system, what wires do what, how to add extra functionality, etc.

what goes here?

Post by Dan224 »

Is it just me or does anyone else hate to see blanking caps where there should be a switch? The only one I've found on mine (yet) is on the panel where the hand brake is. There is 4 switches and the lock for the airbag. the switches are

1) drvers heated seat
2) passanger heated seat
3) interior sensor for the alarm?
4) ?????????

So the question is, what should go here? and if its somthing I cant retro fit, any ideas what could go in its place :P

cheers

Nothing. Mine have had the alarm switch next to the headlamp adjuster and there's a coin holder where yours is which takes up 2 slots

I saw a photo on piston heads of a 406 coupe and it had all the spaces used, but it was too blurry to see what it was used for.
