    Unhappy Mysterious button

    Hi
    IMG_4259.JPG

    Anyone care to shed any light on the function of this button under the aerial one on my newly purchased 2002 Patrol. It clicks a solenoid under the bonnet. Not sure if it's an on/off or what. The switch position doesn't change. I have a dual battery system.
    Ciao

    Get off the drugs John, there is no Icon on it, looks like an aftermarket push button.

    Do you have dual battery, it may be for emergency (override) starting switch for the isolator.
