Sorry if this has been asked and answered before. It's hard to search for something when you don't know what it's called. There's an intermittent white vertical line on the far right of the DIC just above the compass display. It's only there momentarily so I haven't been able to get a picture of it (plus I was driving). Seems like it might be associated with the cruise control because it think it has popped up shortly after setting the cruise control. I didn't find it in the owner's Manual under DIC display or Cruise Control.

Thanks in advance.

I took a picture of the display today. It appeared after selecting Resume on the cruise control when below the selected cruise speed. It goes away after a few seconds. It's a five-bar graph although I've never seen more than two bars displayed. It looks like it might be telling me how long it will be before I've reached the set cruise speed. I didn't find anything about that in the 2024 manual. Anybody have a better theory?

I think thats the page indicator, similar to the right of your computer screen. If you use the thumb wheel on the right of your steering wheel you can see different pages like trip 2, current drive ect

Yep, that's what it is. Rotate the thumbwheel and you will see the highlighted bar change as the display changes.

That's what the vertical line on the right is? I know that's what the horizontal line on the top is. Why does it disappear after a couple seconds, seems like it should stay there like the horizontal line.

Yep, you guys are right. It's another means for selecting the display page.
