Mystery switch

[Patcherelli]

We have a Swift Sundance 630G on a Ducato 130 Mjet
Under the passenger seat behind a grill i found a round switch. When you turn it there's a click like an electrical contact.

Bit wary of it so not played with it.

Any clues?

battery kill switch, ignition inhibit?

Will do in daylight.

 

[Patcherelli]

When you say battery kill switch, which one and what effect would it have?

Technical desert.

if it was an ignition inhibit it would prevent the engine starting

 

[Patcherelli]

Thats it. Ignore the wires they go to the trickle charger

Could it be an inertia switch ?

Are you sure it is a switch, what I am seeing is the lock for one of the plastic covers or tool box. At least that's what it is on mine.

Mystery solved. It did nothing more than release the tool box!

Ah, but if you had a nasty Chinese gentleman sat next to you and you pressed and turned it the other way......

Thanks to all
Ejector seat is made safe.
I put a bungee over it

If I was a Motorhome Manufacturer, I'd put lots of odd switches around the place, in very obscure places, just to windup the customers. Oh, hang on, they already do !!

We found a useful storage box under the drivers seat in our Swift van too.......a great place to store high vis jackets, breathaliser kits and warning triangle too.

As I've mentioned elsewhere, ours contains a heater - plumbed into the cooling system - that blows hot air into the hab area.
