Default Brighten Clock Display?

I have not been able to find this in the manual. Is there a way to increase the brightness of the clock and climate temperature display between the stereo and the nav? I know how to dim the dash display, etc. but my clock is so dim it is very hard to read. Thanks if anyone can shed some light (bad pun I guess.)

I believe all the dash lighting is controled by the dimmer which is to the left of the steering wheel on the lower dash area, IIRC.

Thanks, the dash is bright but the clock is dim. Going in soon for the 5K check up. Will ask the dealer about it. Could just be an LED out.

Mine isn't dim in my 2014 and it wasn't dim in my 2010. I would show it to the dealer next time you're in for service.

Default Thanks

Thanks, I plan to ask the dealer about it. The temp read outs are OK, only the clock display is dim.

No clue, maybe a bad display. I had that happen with an oven once and had to have the display replaced.
