I had a switch there on my 300tdi, it was linked to two solenoids on the turbo actuator, off meant Normal performance, on gave more boost.

Is it an ex-SHB vehicle? If so possibly had lights on roof that have been removed and panel repaired

It's not ex-SHB as far as I'm aware.

It does have a stage 2 Alive remap. If anyone else has one of those and a button, let me know! Very Happy

Check first registered keeper, just in case!

Problem is it’s a generic switch so could have been for pretty much anything Crying or Very sad

I think some one said before on here that ex-utility company ones with a power take off have a switch that allows to remove the key and keep the engine running. ...


Runlock systems use a non-latching push button switch, not a toggle switch.

I have the exact same switch, which is for the rear roof rack mounted work light.

First thought after reading that was well you certainly don't want a Defender then... Shocked Solved the bowel problem, working on the consonants...

Ha...I'm planning on getting to know the car better but could really do with looking over people's shoulders. If anyone happens to be doing anything to their puma defenders and you live near London then please let them me know Very Happy
