Yamaha remote control has extra switch
 

Hi,

On my remote control there is a toggle switch below the start/choke
switch and above the lanyard kill switch. The engine is a 115 Yamaha
about 1998 and the switch is not shown in any of the manual I have
downloaded.

Has anyone any idea what the toggle switch is for?

Thanks

Easy way to figure it out: What happens when you flip it?

I seriously doubt it's a self-destruct switch. ;)

Older Yamaha ignition switches did not have the "push to choke" feature and
you had to use the toggle switch to activate the choke.

I designed the engine when I was with Yamaha. It is for your
sternlight.
