    The truck is a 2000 T2000. The switch on the right increases/decreases the idle speed. But the button on the left I have no clue what it is. Looks like an icon of a snow flake.

    Would appreciate it if anyone who might know what it is for could enlighten me.

    Thanks

    Left looks like your idle speed adjustment for warm up. Right one looks like a PTO engage switch for a wet kit.

    LOL

    No, it's not for the PTO. The PTO is on the floor, beside the my seat.

    As I've stated, I know what the left one switch is for but the right one, I've no idea. As it shows and I stated, it looks like a snow flake for an icon.

    It's for ta PTO when installed at factory. Whoever installed your PTO went directly to the floor instead of thru the dash.
