MingF Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Hi... It has been pretty cold lately in the past couple of weeks in Toronto. I've recently notice that when I turn on my car and turn on the radio....the green LCD light that lights the background of the display for the radio is very dim. It would stay dim but as a drive the green light will eventually get bright and back to normal. Has this happen to you ? Is it just because of the cold weather? The rest of the dashboard lights work normally...it's just the radio's LCD display. I don't know if the bulb is going to burn out... Let me know if this happens to you or if there's a way to fix it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks ← If you start your car in a dark garage the backlighting of the display will dim to adjust for low ambient light. You can override this by touching the 'display' button and following the prompts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 I don't think he has Navigation. Its probably just the cold... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviej Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 happens to me all the time. I don't have Navi, just the premium. I know exactly what Ming describes. It's just the cold. As the cabin warms up the LCD illuminates brighter. I usually see the darkening when it is below 20°F on the outside temp reading. Ming, don't worry about it. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for all your help everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
