Hello all
Straight away I should apologise for raising this matter once more but from the several posts around 2015 there seemed to be no solution to this problem so I'm wondering and hoping that SEAT, Cupra or anybody else has found one.
All the cars I have owned over the last 50 years plus have had a rheostat fitted that allowed the user to independently adjust the intensity of the dashboard backlights - until now! I've had my car for less than a week and the dimming of the dashboard lights at night to the point where I cannot read the speedometer, map directions or the speed limit read-out is driving me nuts. Not only that, it's downright dangerous - how are you supposed to adhere to the speed limit when you don't know how fast you are going???
This is a crazy situation and one that leads me to think that there might be a setting within the bowels of the complex computer system, one that I've missed, that will enable the dashboard light to stay on and visible at night. I have the lights on 'auto' setting, but that should be irrelevant.
I can imagine a huge Lawsuit in the States were an accident to arise as a direct result of this failure - the VW/Audi etc conglomerate should take due note of this and more immediately, the complaints made by their customers without whom they would be out of business.
So, bottom line - has a solution been found so that we can see our dashboards at night?
