Default 2001 quad cab 3500 Diesel

Does anyone know what the rocker switch under the ash tray activates? What is the blue light bulb above the speedometer?

Rocker switch may be for main/aux tanks. Do you have two gas caps?

Blue light I believe is high beam indicator.

Welcome to DF! Do you have an owners manual? That may help you understand your vehicle better.

sounds aftermarket like something a previous owner installed.

These trucks didn't come with aux tanks. not even as an option. They had an option for a larger tank which my truck has, but no aux tank option.

maybe post a picture of the switch and light you are talking about?

unless that blue light is the high beam indicator, then I doubt it is stock either.

you may want to trace the wires to the switch to find out what it does.
