Default Shift indicator light

A friend of mine has a 2014 corvette with a manual trans. One evening he had the car out and noticed his shift indicator light turned from white to amber,and then back to white. Is this trying to tell him something? He called the dealer,but they did not have an answer.

If its the number white means no rev match, amber means rev match.

It's likely he accidentally engaged the rev match feature by tapping or moving one of the paddle shifters. On an M7 the only function for the paddles is to enable/disable rev match.

If only people will read their manuals... or anything about the car at all.
