    They're called 'suicide switches' for a reason old mate!!! lmao

    Might be a 'Get Smart' switch for a cone of silence or something??!!! lol

    Yep, trace the wiring is the go ... or flick it at 100Klms per hour and find out if it's anything 'breakable'!! lol

    Haha, flick it man!
    Definitely video the result - wish I was when we removed the flaming air horn compressor that shorted from the 'flick it approach' testing my mates new shorty!

    In that position I reckon it's gonna be a master off switch for the spotties or fuel cut.

    Just flick the bloody thing already!

    I bought a mitsubishi express van once and on the way home decided to flick switches whilst waiting in macdonalds drive through.
    It died i switched the lpg open whilst it still had a full carb of petrol and it flooded stalled and wouldn't start lol.
    Ended up being a push through and a 20 minute wait before trying to start it again and off she went.

    Could be a fancy gearbox lockup solenoid, so flick it at 100km/hr to shear it off so it doest cause future problems.
