Default Anyone know what this switch does on a 1980 20' Cig?

Can someone tell me if Cigarette had a switch located to the right of the steering wheel (LH steering wheel)? The switch has a red light mounted with it, but doesn't seem to do anything in this boat. Looking to swap it for a depth sounder if it does nothing.

Can't upload pics for some reason, but a pic is available if someone can help.

Thanks!

Is it the bilge pump or bilge blower? Just a guess.

Most likely the bilgepump judging by the red light next to it, alerts you if your pump is running off of the floatswitch.

Could it have something to do with the foot throttle or silent choice? I don't use it the foor throttle and silent choice isn't on it . I've seen the switch on other 20's.
