I have the same button and was wondering this as well. It looks like a reset switch. Almost like the kind that would be pushed in if you blew a circuit on a bathroom outlet.

Mars23z, are you talking about your car or your Spaceship to Mars:alien:?

I believe it is part of the 260Z interlock system. Look in the FSM.

I thought it was a joke....

I remember that stupid regulation... cars sold in the U.S. during the first half of 1974 (including my Dad's AMC Matador) were REQUIRED to have an interlock to prevent the car from starting until the seat belts were fastened. It was really ugly because the regulations required that the car had to detect, and prevent people from just leaving the seat belts engaged all the time.

The systems HAD to require a sequence to start the car:

1. Sit in the seat.

2. Fasten the belts.

3. Start the car.

Any deviation from that pattern, and the car would not start.

It only lasted 6 months because 1974 was an election year, and in those days 90% of Americans refused to wear seat belts. Now we are so wimpy that we actually ALLOW the state governments to FINE people who refuse to wear their seat belts. (Instead of just issuing them Darwin awards after they crash like we should...)

Yet another sign that the end is near...
