Fan override? SVO's had a fan sensor problem, and I admittedly know very little about the 5.0. Just bored and looking through random areas.[&:]

EDIT: That is where I put mine on the SVO, just why I had that thought.

you know there are only two ways to find out lol

you can pull that apart and find out where the wire goes...and spend countless time trying to figure out which wire is which lol
ORR

you can FLIP IT

and see if your car turns into bumblebee :-)

ive got a whooooole bunch of money that thats the toggle switch for the electric fan. Mine is mounted just a little higher then that. Right above my left knee, directly below the switch to turn on the dome light.

I still vote for an alarm as most of the wires that would be needed are in the kick panel.

Take it out and see what it does, the suspence is killin us...

that thing is definitely not stock. that looks almost exactly like the killswitch i put in, mine's just hidden a little better my guesses are still:

killswitch
fan switch
block heater (aftermarket)

Isn't that a fuel cut off switch? Great place to hide it from theifs. Props to the person who put it there.

i have that EXACT same switch on my car. its for my viper alarm. if you flip it off and turn the ingnition on, it deactivates it. doing to opposite will activate it.
