An easy explanation is mistakes do happen at the factory. Your could have just gotten a v6 center console. I think one wrong part out of thousands is more likely than a v6 car with a doctored window sticker, fake fog lights, a 150 speedo swap, two extra spark plug wires that go nowhere, GT badges and a friend who sold it to you that did all this to get a GT price for a v6 car. Does your owners manual tell you how to turn it on? Its been a pretty entertaining post one way or another.

Yo Willus the third button that appears missing on your console would work the rear window defroster. Does your car have a rear defroster? (horizontal lines across the rear window?) I think all Mustangs even the convertibles have this feature.

Does that work? Where on your car is the button to turn that on?

why are you giving this guy false information??? my rear window defogger switch is just under my headlight switch on the left side of the dashboard...



Okie dokie.. seems like there is more than one switch layout for Mustangs (different years? models?)

On mine, right under the headunit are three switches like in this picture. The left one is rear defogger, center one is trac control, and right one is FOG lights. Mine is a 2002GT, this pic is not from my car, in this pic the trac control is a blank button.

I would take apart the console and look for the wiring. It appears you were right and someone swapped the switch with a coin holder or it just came that way and the previous owner didn't know or care.

The console comes apart pretty easy, it's all put together with plastic clips, just pull firmly, but do not twist.

it's hard not to think you have a v6 when you CAN'T FIND THE BUTTON TO TURN ON YOUR FOG LIGHTS. did the guy you bought it from at least give you a manual?


The dash is also proof it's a v8. V6 stangs speedo only go to 120 and the tach redlines at 5250.

The owner has a couple of options:

1. Get a copy of the owner's manual from the dealership because he
really should have one and look it up.

2. Ask any other mustang driver where he lives and ask them. They
probably would not mind answering a simple question and maybe
make a new friend.

3. Go to any Ford dealership service and ask them.

I would do option 1.

Just pop the one coin holder out and see if there is any loose wiring there. Maybe they just forgot to put the button on...that's crazy though.
