What is this? Found on S4 Fc gauge cluster under turn signal switch

 

its jsut a generic switch. what are the wires going to?

 

its not factory, best plan is to remove it

 

ones Crimped off and the others goes into the Dash Harness it looks factory from the way it was installed

 

Not a lot to go on. Either trace it and list the wire colors it's going to or just rip it out and be done with it.

 

I ripped it out I didn't feel like deal with previous owner bs

 

A lot of people put ignition kill switches in their FCs. My old 91 had one.

 

Probably what it was given it had a whole alarm system in it

 

i exhumed one car where the whole reason it was parked was because the butt connector on the "start" wire had come apart.
i removed all of the aftermarket junk, which turned out to be THREE complete alarm systems.

 

That must've been fun. Previous owners aren't always the smartest it seems

 

That happened with my Mazdaspeed Protege too!
It had this weird intermittent ignition issue that drove me crazy trying to hunt down. It ended up being the stock alarm (made by Viper, btw), taking a **** after 15 years.
