was hoovering my car out and noticed a switch under the steering column, just above the pedals.
Its a push in style swith not sure if its a factory fitted thing or not. anyone know what it could be ?
The car is an 03 sti spec c .

 

get a picture up mate

could be anything

steve

 

is it above the brake or throttle pedal??

 

ejector seat

 

LOL

 

I have the same on my 03 UK STI, have no idea what it's for

 

My old Impreza had a homemade immobilizer inside the handbrake console. Had to remove backing plate, slide hand up the tunnel and feel for the switch. Basically, it was a switch to the fuel pump...could be that

 

Thats why I didnt press it. ^

Im thinking fuel cut out or something like that. Ill get a pic up later .


pete@s/e imprezas - Think its over the clutch pedal.

 

An Al Qaeda-ist owned the car before - it's his "blow everything to Kingdom Come" switch.

 

heres a pic
the black bar to the left of it is the clutch pedal.
any ideas?

 

When the clutch is pressed does it touch it? Looks like a clutch switch to me!

 

^^ Think it must touch it , as you have to hold the clutch down when starting the engine, it must push that button in when starting the engine.

 

You would fit a switch there if you have Flat Foot Shifting too There should be one on the brake pedal too?

 

Do you have cruise control or something? Mine doesn't have it!

 

Not that i know of

 

I think Mifo is right, On jdm scoobs you have to push the clutch down to start the car, so its probably the switch that allows you to turn the engine over to start it.

 

Yes it definatly is this, had a look last night and its pushed in by the clutch pedal.

 

You could have launch control and flat foot shifting off that switch then
