Hello All,

I just hit 1K miles on my 2019 Bighorn Sport and just happened to notice a button that isn't in the owners manual. Well at least I didn't find any information on it. I was hoping one of you all might be able to elighten me as to what it does. Please see the attached pic. IMG_20180628_064658.jpg
 
Sorry, but I have no idea, press it lets find out.
 
Haha! I did a few times, Seal team 6 did not put me on my face. It just lit the LED on the button from what I could tell. But maybe it didnt do anything because I wasn't in acc. I'll try again
 
That's definitely a dealer add on, I've seen someone else on another forum post asking the same question about having the same thing in a 4th gen truck.

Did they figure it out? My dealer has to be about the worst in answering questions.

Did your dealer add Bluetooth to the truck after the fact?!
I don't think they would . It's equipped with the 8.4 Uconnect w/nav. I've had the last three gen 8.4 Uconnects and Bluetooth was always built in.

You would think the dealer could answer this question but they look more confused than me.
 
I can't remember, it was about a year or a year and a half ago, bit it was the exact same button. Maybe something to do with an aftermarket security system or something.
 
Ha! That's the panic button. I assume you don't have it registered or the swat team would have swarmed by now!
 
Whoever did it could have done a nicer install. Looks like the unit does not sit flush over the complete panel and wires hanging out.
 
...that awkward moment when you seen that brochure in your owners pack but didn't read it. Thanks brother!

I definitely did not register it...that would have been fun

That's actually what caught my eye. As a previous electronic avionics craftsman for F-15s I know a little something about shoddy jobs...and this takes the cake.

Thanks everyone for making me a little less dumb today!

Your accuracy is haunting!
