New owner of a 998. Drove for the first time today, and I love it. What does this switch do?

I have a similar switch in the same location. It runs yellow strobe lights on my helmet top. The hot wire leaves that switch and goes down the drivers side to the lights. See where the wire goes on yours.

It is a style of hardtop.

My M998 was at one time an S250 shelter carrier so it was upgraded with suspension parts for that configuration. Maybe yours had a previous life where that switch was in use? See where the wires go and that will give you a clue.

The majority of trucks I’ve had with that toggle have it powering IR lamps on the front of the truck.
