Navi automatic dimming doesn't work
My Navi display always stays in "Day" mode when set to Auto. The owner manual says it should switch to "Night" automatically when I turn on the headlights. Or am I misunderstanding something? The only way I finally got to see what "Night" mode looks like was to go to Setup and manually set it to "Night".
Has anyone else seen this problem?

When I turn on the headlights it doesn't really dim. It seems to switch to a reversed contrast mode. It started out as white on black but then I switched the background to blue. There is another thread about this around a month ago.

Hmm, it's kind of difficult to find old threads, and I don't remember seeing it.
In response to tbaleno - my brightness wasn't set to max.

The current brightness level is shown in the odometer display when you press the +/- buttons. I believe there are separate brightness levels for headlight on/off, so make sure the headlights are turned on when you make this adjustment.
