What the hell does this switch do?
Attachment 136801 |
thats for the light on your hood, when the switch is down the circuit is open and the light doesnt light. when the pin goes up (hood open) the circuit is completed and turns on the hood light
|
it creates the fusion in your flux capacitor.......

that switch is not for the light, the light has a mercury switch inside of it. let me look at a wiring diagram and see what it does because it escapes me at the moment
that switch is part of the anti-theft system, the panic alarm should go off if the vehicle is locked and the hood is then popped with the doors shut |
is there a light on your dash possibly telling you the hood is open? lol

Well ass soon as I reached in an popped the hood then walked around and actually opened it BOOM my alarm went off, thanks for the help.
