Hi again,

So, there's this switch in the back right of my glove box, which turns left to right, for what I asume to be on and off. But Ican't figure out what it does! Nothing seems to happen when I turn it in either direction.. Can anybody enlighten me?

Have you looked underneath to see if its got any wiring going to it..? In all tge 206s I've owned, I've never come across a switch like that...

It's your secret turbo switch.

When it is engaged in its "on" position your car has an output of 300bhp and also a small well hidden nos chamber from under the car becomes activated. It only kicks in when driven hard.

Cool

Was that an optional extra? Laughing

That is aftermarket. I have never come across a switch like that before

It might be a switch to active the parking brake bypass on dvd headunits. I know a lot of headunits require them and this is one of the correct ways to have it. Positions indicate if the 'park brake' is on and off to allow for playback of videos from the dvd/ipod.

Have a similar setup on my Pioneer appradio but a more discreet button.

Best thing to do is get under it and trace the wires.

Turns the lights off in Japan. Every time it is in the off position, there is a power cut in Tokyo
