Instrument Cluster and Panel Illumination

Overview

Dimmable Backlighting

Dimmable illumination provides backlighting to switches and control components when the headlamps or parking lamps are on. The level of intensity is adjusted by pressing the instrument panel dimmer switch up to increase intensity or down to decrease intensity.

Non-dimmable Backlighting

Non-dimmable illumination provides backlighting to the window switches (for vehicles without door modules) with the ignition ON or OFF while the ignition relay is energized.
