Default Help - I found red/green lights and button switch in fusebox!

Greetings! While going over my buddy's recently purchased 2004 A6 2.7T S-line tip, I looked in his fuse box and noticed a little green and red led light and push button switch tucked in the back corner. Anyone know what this might be? It certainly does not look like a stock item. Thanks!!

Not Stock. Are there aftermarket fogs? Can you trace where the wires hook up?

Nope - Everything in car appears to be stock. I can't see where they are going. If I hook up a VAG-COM to it do you know if it will point out mods? Thanks

Default Best bet is to trace the wires. Or push the switch and see what/if anything changes.

If you pull the plastic underside of the dash off, you may be able to trace the wires from down there.

Or you could just go with the "if it aint broke" philosophy and ignore it.

Default yeah, I've never been one to randomly push buttons to see what happens.

could be a kill switch.
