Dunno what RR Heater switch does, don't have one in my car.

    Yeah could be used for both. Basically to keep engine revs constant. In my childhood saw milk cockies using this function to keep vehicle driving slowly through paddock while dishing out feed from the tray. Not worksafe approved these days I'm sure, been many a farmer driven over exiting or trying to re-enter.
