Have a question that you'd like the experts to tell you the answer? Post your questions here. You can ask any question ranging from directions to deployment and so on.

Please, we will not accept stupid questions.

Haha, lets phrase it properly, take it as questions without appropriate answers bah...
It was taught in school that there ain't any 'stupid questions', because they come with 'stupid answers'! Some starters really cannot tell a LO3X apart from a VO3X, so we might as well answer those, but when asked 'are there Centroliners in Sg bus fleet' or 'why there aren't any Centroliners in Sg bus fleet', you and me will not be able to find the 'appropriate answer' for the questions, so might as well avoid posting and answering those.
Good, lets start asking and knowing more!

Alright, lets start...
I find that 'Habits' with Voith gearboxes have a switch to test the fire extinguisher circuit. It is somewhere near the hazard light button at the lower part of the dashboard. When depressed, the 'Fire' hazard light at the hazard light panel will light up. According to a BC (whom of course I asked when the bus is not in motion, safety first!), the button is to test the fire extiguisher circuit, and that 'only three geared (Voith) Habits' have the button to test.

My question (guesses are accepted as well, can widen my mind a bit) is does ZF gearbox Habits have the button? It might be located somewhere else but for the BC who drives a Voith Habit he might not have noticed.

The bus on which the circuit testing was 'demonstrated' is the same as my nick (TIB1224Y, Voith gearbox).
