Mysterious Green Led On Dash

[Tony Ellis]

I have recently bought an Avensis T180 Tourer 2.2D and have dicovered a mysterious green LED on the dash emediately behind the steering wheel but not on the main dash indicator display. Does anyone know what this may be for?

As far as i know and is on page 6 of the manual item 10 its the TRC OFF indicator light, illuminates green when off.

Manual just shows plain dash with no LED

[Tony Ellis]

TRC OFF indicator is on the main dash display to the left of the REV counter

This is the page from the manual, i did say it was an indicator light, and not a switch.

Item 10 is the TRC OFF switch. The LED I'm am posting about is on its own on the dash panel below the display cluster edge - Roughly behind item 6 on the diag.

Now with photo attached...

I am sorry but i have never seen any other green light in the area you refere to, it could be the service reminder light, but as mine has not come on i could not tell you, maybe this piccy scan may help you.

Sorry can not help you further.

Does your car have a towbar fitted? If it does, its the operating led for your electrics on the towbar wiring. If you put an indicator on, left or right, it will flash once.

Yes, I do have a tow bar. I thinks you've cracked it. Many thanks

It's obviously a non-standard fitment, PhilGee is probably right with it being a towbar pilot lamp, flashes when towbar electrics are connected and indicator working. If indicator on towed item fails, light stops flashing to let you know.
