Little Red Button.

This unit new to me, so this might be a simple question.

Just to the left of the steering wheel, in the plastic shroud, there is a small red button. Protrudes about a half inch, maybe a 1/8" in diameter. It appears to be a simple push button switch, one press make is to go, the next press makes it go off.

Any ideas???

I think it's an ejection for the passenger seat if you are getting to much static about your driving. Jim

Driving lights?

BTW Conquest, thanks for refilling the button for others to use.

Are you sure it is a button? Does it click when pressed? Does your RV have an alarm? I ask because I have a similar "button", but it is really a light. It's the little light that flashes when the alarm is set.
Any help?

I have a red light in the same area that lights up when my jacks are down. Could it be something like that?

Try Winnebagos online pages that have manuals for past models. They may have yours and it may explain the light.

If you have a Keyless Entry System it could be the Valet button.

X2, but my jacks were aftermarket.

I also have a small red button which is for aftermarket fog lights.

I have a 2005 29R on F53 chassis and do not have that light/button. I wonder if it is a brake light indicator for your toad? Has to be some type of aftermarket add on I would think. Did you ever figure it out?
