Under dash toggle switch
I have a 68 swb stepside, and was curious what the toggle switch on the left lower side of the dash was for. I have noticed these on most all 67-72 C/10 trucks. Thanks

Re: Under dash toggle switch
It's for turning on the Flux Capacitor if so equipped. Dealer installed option.

Re: Under dash toggle switch
I hate those flux capacitors, what with leaving flames burning on the street and all. It seems hazardous to me. It's just for show-offs...

Re: Under dash toggle switch
My '71 doesn't have one of those switches either. To be honest, I don't remember seeing one with that switch.. I started working for GM dealerships in 1967 and I never installed something like that on a new vehicle. Could be some accessory installed by dealers, or someone's hack job.. Why not just trace the wires and see what they lead to????

Re: Under dash toggle switch
I've never seen a factory installed switch on the dash before. Pictures would be nice and as stated follow the wires and see what it's for.
