I have a switch under the radio in the little compartment. The switch is next to the cigarette lighter. Any ideas of what it is?

That doesn't look factory. Did the truck have extra lights or anything at some point?

The previous owner probably had a aftermarket DVD head unit in the vehicle and that switch is most likely to act as a parking brake bypass.

Agree'd with Bricekin. Probably had a 7inch DVD capable head unit, and wired the switch to allow it to play while driving. (only for passengers of course!):rofl: Either that or possibly used it as a power switch for offroad driving lamps, or even an amplifier power switch. Ya never know the kinda stuff DIY'ers will do. I used a switch for my offroad lights, though I must say its an odd place to put it. Let us know if you figure it out!
