P R N D 2 1 and Odometer on Dash isn't dimming when headlights are on?
The P R N D 2 1 and odometer on the dash isn't dimming when I turn my headlights on, but the display on the left (compass, temp, gas mileage) is dimming. This thing is driving me nuts now that it's dark when I leave for work and when I drive home! It's like someone is shining a flashlight in my face the entire time I'm driving. Any thoughts on finding a fix that doesn't involve putting electrical tape over it?

Have you messed around with (turned it up and down) the dimmer dial on the headlight control stalk? Just a thought before all the expensive stuff is done... Good luck!

I noticed the same thing this week too. I thought the electronic gremlins got into things, but my light was on due to the cold temps causing the tire pressures to drop.
I haven't paid attention to things and have been leaving work early, so I'll have to see if it dims now that the TPMS light is back off.
