Default A/C Display Dim

I don't know if it is related, but I took my car in to get the windshield replaced this morning and when I picked the car up this afternoon I noticed that the Outside Temp display on the AC was really dim. I thought maybe it was my imagination, but tonight after dark it was really obvious - can barely read it. I tried adjusting the rheostat on the interior lights - no effect. Also I noticed earlier tonight that it was the first time my car ever went over 220-degrees before the fans kicked on.

Could they have unplugged something and not put it completely back in today ?

Looks like this thread explains my problem - and taking it to the shop for repairs was just a coincidence?
