1989 RRC - what is the rocker switch on the steering column?

A friend of mine has a 1989 RRC vogue 3.9. This is LHD and from the Greek market. He has a rocker switch on the LHS of his steering column that looks to be factory. It has a 1 and 0 on it. When pressed, there is apparently a click but he can't figure out what it's actually doing.



Is this switch factory? If so, any ideas what it does?

Only thing i can find on Microcat in that area is fuel flap release. Shown in the position of the lower of the two apparent switches in the photo.

That was my first thought when he asked, although it doesn't appear to be for that. On my 1991 vogue I do have a push button in that location to open the fuel flap. I.e on LHS of column on RHD car. Mystery remains! Cheers

It will be for the click generator then.

Haha. Will have to fabricate a click collector next, they might be valuable!

You don't have a button to open a 89 fuel filler so its not that and UK spec has no switch there.

Mines is fuel flap release. Not that ye ever need to put fuel in a 3.9
