Praveen,
Nice TT and looks like you have the parking antenna on the front bar too, does it work? |

Praveen,
There should be a switch to turn on/off for the parking antenna under the steering wheel like this one in the photo.
The switch labeled Pole is the one.

Praveen,
When the pole is extended, it gives you a visual aid in determining how far the front corner of the car is away from a wall, or another vehicle.
The tip contains a small bulb so that it's useful at night time.
You could liken it to a small radio ariel in operation.
It doesen't make any noise.

Steve I have one on my 31 but it is for the remote to open the doors & boot, to turn it on or off.
How did you go with the suspension pump?? |

On the '32 limited the extra switch is for the front sensor only. |
