unidentifiable switch
there is a switch in my 1997 chevy cavalier z24 just left of the interior dome light control. the switch has an orange dot that glows when in the up position, and it is blank otherwise. does anyone know what it does? because i cant seem to find the answer elsewhere.

Re: unidentifiable switch
many cars come with rear fog lights as well, that are embedded in the tail lights. all cars in europe must have rear fog lights. i didnt know if the cavalier does. but thanks anyway for being an asshole, too bad you just sound stupid now.

Re: unidentifiable switch
i know what reverse lights are. these are not. these illuminate the red lights in back brighter than what they usually are. they are called rear fog lights. they are not white like the front fog lights.

Re: unidentifiable switch
I don't know who to root for...but he's right, they do make cars with rear fog lights, they're a stupid invention b/c they do the same as reverse lights, but none the less.... oh I have them too, but they also come out the sides......they're in NEON form
