2861DS Mystery Rocker Switch and Extra Drain.
2016 Forester 2861DS. We have a mystery switch next to the Fantastic Fan control. We have no idea what it does. Also, we have an extra grey valve and pipe. We think it may be for our outside kitchen sink. Just want to confirm that. Posting photos. Thanks.

Not sure about the switch but the drain is for a separate holding tank for the outside kitchen so you are correct in that.

I might add that switch only controls the speakers from the dash radio. Also works pretty good if you use Spotify with your bluetooth.

The switch in our unit by the fantastic fan control turns the outside speakers on and off when using your dash radio.

Makes sense about this switch controlling the outside speakers because of its location and we were wondering how to turn those speakers on. However, we turned the dash radio on tonight to test it out, and something must be wrong because the outside speakers did not work when we used the switch. Is there an additional audio setting in the radio that turns these speakers on? Sorry for all the questions, but I went through the owner's manual download and couldn't find anything about the outside speakers. Thanks so much for your help.

If you have a second house radio it is the one the outside speakers work with, not the dash radio...

So how do I get these speakers to work with this switch?? We turned the Jensen dash radio on and turned the switch to the on position but the speakers did not work. What are the settings in the radio digital panel that turn these on?

Our switch was wired upside down. Crank up your radio and have someone go outside while you are switching the switch up and down to see if they can hear anything . I presume you have the outdoor speakers mounted just below the awning.
