2018 Civic SI Question

[SoCalCivicSI]

Hi all,

Just bought a 2018 Beautiful Aegean Blue CIVIC SI 6 speed manual Coupe.

Trying to adjust the brightness on the dash lights/guages, manual shows turning that black knob/shaft on the instrument panel back and forth to adjust the brightness but that does nothing?

Is the knob defective or do u adjust the brightness on the guages a different way on the SI model?

Thanks!

I had to really turn the knob alot to notice a difference. Keep turning and turning in the same direction.

I don't have an Si, but on my EX-L that knob doesn't do anything during the day. The dash is always at full brightness. It only works at night with the lights on. I think it's working as intended.

Turning the knob on mine alters the cluster lights. Was a while back, so I don’t remember if it was day or night.

Remember if you turn it to the max brightness then android auto or apple CarPlay will never go to dark mode at night

Yep, you are right, just tried the knob at night with the lights on and it works!!

Thanks Guys!

Yeah the adjustment only works when the headlights are on
