Ok, the switch seemed indeed intended for the dashboard illumination. During the wee hours of the day I managed to see the lights. Thanks for all the interesting replies. Now I can worry about leaking Windows, probably another topic.

I think she has been abused quite a bit in her lifetime, I agree.
-
would think internationally there's agreement on how/where to measure a boats length? Anyway, that would be about the difference I guess.
-
You're right there, on the vessel paperwork it says 9,3m, but the actual length is 9,7m.

Oddly enough I found out crown blue line by way of the original crockery still onboard, as well as the coat hangers with their logo.

OK, thanks for all replies. Put it all together and found out that my boat has a thornycroft driveline, an aquafibre hull and was built by blue crown line.
-
This is the boat. If thornycroft are only responsible for the drivesystem, as one f you suggested, then I don't know who built it. It said 'crown cruisers' somewhere, but I thought that would be a rental company. New in the business as you can tell. I bought it anyway and am very happy with it.

OK, looked up the old posting as well. Might be something silly as the instrument light which of course I could not see at the time as it was full sunshine when I tried. (Am in France, not in the UK ?). When I get back to the boat will try. Would expect instrument lights to switch on together with nav lights, but that's probably an automotive idea. Thanks for the nice responses. If I can be of any assistance.

Hello, I am the fresh owner of a thornycroft canal boat 1983 (tamaris?)She is stationed in France. I am trying to master the in and outs of the maintenance and refurbishing a bit. On the dashboard is a metal switch I cannot fathom. The connected wires go in a big bundle and I cannot trace them. Operating the switch doesn't have any visual or audible effect, although it seems an original one. I have a photo but don't know how to post it here. Hilko
