The other night was the first time I took Black Beauty # 2627 out at night and when I put on the head lights I noticed that the instrument panel lights really dimmed a lot. Is that Normal ?

BullittRocKer,

Yep, it's normal for the odometer and radio control lights to dim when your turn on the headlights.:smile:

Thanks for shedding some light on that subject for me: :grin: :smile:

I believe that the reasoning is that because it's darker out (thus headlights on), you don't need the lights to be as bright on the dash. If they were brighter, it could be a distraction. As far as I have seen, most modern cars do this.

You know, you can adjust the brightness of things by turning the headlight knob. My car came with things pretty set pretty dim.

Thanks, it just seemed at the very moment the head lights are turned on the instrumentation lights got dimmer, more than I've noticed in other cars, but as you said I can turn them up with the dimmer switch.

The dimming is to help your night vision.....It's Magic

It would be nice if the buttons on the crise control lit up!

Ray,

What are you doing using the cruise control. This device is solely for the purpose of controlling speed when in the presence of law enforcement!! Other than that it shouldn't be touched. Plus who wants the added weight of the leds :smile: :smile:

I can't tell you how many time the cruise control saved me from a speeding ticket. "just set it and forget it" :-B
