Just have a question for you guys!

Hello, i stumbled upon this website while doing a search, glad to see that more and more people are getting the new 2.4 SS! I just got mine about 3 weeks ago, just have a question. The *** where you controll how dim your dash/steering wheel lights, does yours light up at night? It's the button right next to the fog lights, for some reason mine doesnt light up i was just wondering if that is how everybody elses was, just seems a little strange, if for some reason the bulb is bad or something i hope they dont have to like pull the dash to change a tiny bulb, it seems like once it goes into the dealer for service it's never the same lol. Thanks guys!

Scott

I've noticed, even if you manually turn on your lights, the gauges only turn on if it's remotely dark out. Otherwise they stay off.

Mine doesnt light up either... I asked the dealer about it and they said that it has to do with the way the knob connects to the dimmer itself... Something about there not being enough room for light... I dunno...

Ya' know.... I've never really noticed mine lighting up either. But as it's typically blocked by the steering wheel I can typically find it by feel pretty easily. It's not like you have to adjust the interior lights that often anyways...
