I've got one of these buttons too. As far as I'm aware, it doesn't do anything. I couldn't figure it out either. When I pulled apart my dash i noted that the button was located near a little vent that was attached to a hose of some kind. Almost like an air freshener pump. I presumed it was for that reason.

I believe that hose is a temperature sensor of sorts

that was a compliance issue under the old rules... the cars needed a dimmer switch and that was the easiest way to put one in :(

and i always thought it was factory cause it sure looks like it. my antenna switch is just above my left knee..that looks factory too. thumbs up to the compliance guys then.

yeah the tube is for your climate control to measure cabin temp, im pretty sure of it.

Some jealous so-and-sos buried a really smic R33 with its owner out at Eastern Creek... right in the middle of the Lighthorse Interchange.

You cannot see the car at all. The only way he was able to draw attention, was to press this switch!

All that remains, is this aerial, sticking up outta the ground; 50m high & lit up at night!

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
