New car! but this tiny thing is weird
 

So I just picked up my new SWP, and it's great!

But I noticed the following little "button" on the passenger side dash very close to the windshield. What is that?? What's weird is that it's NOT on the driver's side -- compare the two pics. The button doesn't seem to serve any purpose, should I just pull it off?

I believe that is your sensor for your auto headlights.

I believe thats the temperature sensor. Correct me if im wrong

Yeah, it's useless. Pull it off.

Ah, my google search won't post the link... Google brz auto headlight sensor location and the au link has it confirmed for auto headlights... Makes sense as mine turn on when I have my sunshade up.

It's a headlight sensor, my 2005 Camry has it also. If it's dark, and you have it set to auto setting for your headlights, it'll turn on when it's dark.

I suggest reading your manual.

Ambient temp sensor is on the radiator support.:thumbsup:

Page 203 of the manual, to be exact.

It's button for Ejecto Seato Cuz

Maybe you should plastidip some duct tape and cover the little useless button.

And if you're busy like me here's a link for an online verison, but it is for the canadian model http://www.subaru.ca/WebPage.aspx?We...&WebSiteID=282

Hope that helps.

Correction
 

Actually it's page 206 - 207 with a diagram.

Mine is 2013 MY Owner's Manual. 2014 may have changed.
