I have new to me a 1969 FJ40, its all original for the most part, all of my dash controls are original as fas as I can tell. There is a switch with a "T" that is just above the ash tray. It's attached to a cable that runs through the fire wall and is coiled up not in use. The cable is the same as the choke and hand throttle.
What dash switch/control is this?

Yeah, my 69 doesnt have it either.

Probably ran to a added valve that controled the water to the heaters. 74 was the first year that a control valve was stock.
I would assume it would have been a added valve somewhere on one of the heater hoses in the engine bay. This would have been added and not stock. I have a couple of Man-A-Fre catalogs from the mid seventies. I believe they sold a kit to control the water from the dash. Prior to the 74 model you had to open the hood and adjust a valve on the heater water line leaving the head.
Now I dont feel so ghetto. I have a regular plumbing valve under my hood to cut the water off during the warm months.
