coastline taxis Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 2 buttons on the instument cluster one resets trip to zero other one brightens and dims the dash lights. just keep it pushed in with the lights on and youl see it brighten. probaly be better to do it in the dark Quote

Randombloke Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 still cant get the auto lights to work From memory put key in ignition. Turn to accessories position. Press and hold button on the end of LHS stalk for 5 seconds or until you hear a ding sound. Auto lights on. Same to turn them off. If this does not work let me know and I will consult Manuel. Quote
