Default DIC turns off when lights turned on.

The DIC and other radio display lights etc function perfectly until I turn on the headlights. Then the all of the above disappear. They appear immediately the lights are turned back off so functioning perfectly. Any suggestions please

Naylin,
Make sure the intensity is turned up. I have a HUD and keep mine very low anyway, but if I turn it down to far everything disappears.

later,

I'll bet you have your dash lights dimmed all the way. Just turn the **** and everything should reappear. :yesnod:

I think they ship them with the interior intensity turned all the way down for some reason. The first time my lights popped on and the entire dash went dark I freaked. :eek:

Twist the **** (the one on the dash :D ) and you should be fine!

Enjoy your ride...

Dave
