What's the button/sensor on the dash? (See pic)

Also, I lowered the seat back on the rear and it has this black contraption that I have no clue what it is. It's round and flat and looks like it has a vent. Does it have anything to do with the B&O sound system?

The sub-woofer housing. Not sure about the thingy on the dash...

Definitely subwoofer behind the seat. The sensor might be a light sensor for auto headlights, that’s about where it is on my Chevy.

Thanks Rinn69. I just turned 100 miles today. Love this truck.

Still learning all the features.

Or is he talking about the B&O label "Button" on the speaker housing?

I see. It is the button on the speaker. Is it anything special or just label?

The B&O button on the speaker is just a logo.

The little "Humpy" thing just behind the windscreen is the light sensor for your "auto headlights."

It's called the sun load sensor and it tells Autolamp when to turn on. Note that this is not the same as auto high beams. That sensor (camera) is above by the rearview mirror.

My boss drove around for two days with his headlights on and we finally asked him why. He had no idea. Turns out some papers he had thrown on the dash caused the sun load sensor to think it was dark out.
