Mysterious Switch Ive had this 00 camaro z28 for about half a year now and there is this switch on the side of the driver dash hidden under, no its not a kill switch cause that one is directly under the dash and his hidden further away from plain view. But I have noticed when I flip the switch up after driving around in the car for about 5 minutes the service engine light comes on what could this mysterious switch be?

well this is sorta off the wall, but i have heard of people splicing into the o2 sensors and inducing more voltage to change the a/f ratio. There really is no accurate way to control the voltage to the sensors by hand though (and the fact that the car can be tuned for whatever a/f you want, and dont forget thats why there are input sensors to the PCM/ECM) There was some bullshit kit i saw somewhere a while back that was talking about it... whatever the case is, get rid of it. sounds kinda "rigged" to me... but thats going on what i am reading

although....i once bought a 94 with a mystery switch under the dash. Turned out it was for neon lights. look for mysterious zip ties under your car during your next oil change.
