air/fuel gauge with switch
 
Hey Guys,

My car has an air/fuel gauge with a switch next to it, it came with it when I purchased the car...

I realize the switch could be for anything, but can some one explain without telling me to turn it on and see what it does (because i've done this numerous times and doesn't seem to do anything...) what it could possibly be for? Tuner perhaps, maybe it was power to the gauge???

I'm just looking for some input because i'm trying to trace down what may or may not have been modded on the car before I bought it..

Thanks!

could be the case but for whatever reason there is now no power to the gauge... blah

first thing i suppose i could do is power the gauge and see if thats functioning at all

I'd suggest following the wires before finding out someone wired it ass backwards into you ecu or something dumb

Maybe it was used then the previous owner disconnected it?
