Hi. I've been reading thorugh the 944 drivers manual and have noticed a reference to a 'vent' switch on the remote control ultrasonic alarm system-1. From what I can gather, it enables you to leave the windows and sunroof open on hot doors whilst deactivating the internal ultrasonic alarm inside the car. The manual mentions about switching the 'vent' switch down. It goes onto say this is located on the centre console switch panel.

I am unable to see where this switch is. Can anyone help?

Cheers, Ben

If you have it (and not many do) then it is normally the furthest left hand switch on the centre console in front of the gearstick. If you don't have it there will be a blanking plate. Remember these systems were installed 20 years ago and many will have been replaced with aftermarket products somewhere down the line

A-ha. Thats what that switch is then! There is one switch as you describe on the furthest left hand side of the switch panel in front of the gear stick. Mine doesn't have any symbol on it. I don't know whether or not it's suppose too. I've flicked the switch about before and nothing seemed to happen. I thought that perhaps it may have been for an extra option that wasn't on my car.
I will see if it works tomorrow. Wow, I feel like I've got an extra optional extra now

Cheers, Ben

mines got that switch too, always wondered what it was for

Hi.

Tested out the vent switch over the weekend. It does what it's suppose to. I'm chuffed I've gained another optional extra I didn't know I had.
