I for one have no idea what switch you are talking about...Ignition / lights / front of dash / under dash....

Colour wise it sounds like either the early light switch or dash light (on/off) switch OTOMH.

An easy question to answer if you mention what year car it is and describe the location of the switch wink

Red inner one is a switch fitted on its own to the side of the stereo, as opposed to the bank of three on the other side, right?

That will be the hazard warning switch:

shows my 93 version, but there have been a plethora of wiring versions TVR implemented to work the hazard warning lights (even down to the flashing button....).

Stick a small fuse & battery to earth and test away is your best bet - the rest of the car needs to be energised to test adequately based on the way 2 relays & flasher all have to work 'in harmomy'.
