Think its to do with how bright it is, not too sure though. Had you any bothering getting it wired up mate?

Hmmm, it might be the button to change the speed display from KPH to MPH.
Im not sure tho.

you couldnt be more correct, all you'll have to do is fit it in and see wat the readings give you.

but that could be a bitch cos if you dont wire it properly on mph it will still give u silly reading, but a guess if its on kph then it would be even higher.

i've always thought it was something to do with what size wheels and profile tyres are on the car :?

the mph/kph switch is part of the reset pin that sticks out of the dash

the red switch is to select between either 6pulse or 16pulse senders on some dashboards, or to change between 2 different tyre calibrations on other dashboards

which yours does it a bit hit-n-miss
