Default Disable ECO light?

Just picked up our new NX yesterday for the wife. Been mostly a positive experience.

One thing we find annoying is the silly ECO light that keeps flickering on and off. It's very bright and sometimes makes us think that we've left the turn signal on or something.

Is there any way to permanently de-activate the light? I've checked most of the settings menus to no avail.. perhaps through the dealer? Would any one know if this is possible or not? I know it's disabled in Sport mode. Wish they left if out of the default Normal driving mode as well.

Hi there,

Has anyone managed to disable that annoying ECO light ?

I would appreciate if somebody would give me some tip.

Thanks.

It's found in the center (Multi Informational) menu, far right side "the little gear" menu. There's a setting in there that says ECO light, just toggle that to off and save.

What year is your car?

I have brand new 2018 and there is a “small gear” in multinformation menu but I can’t find inside any function related to switching off the ECO light.

Strange.

Mine is a 2015. I can't speak to the 2018 model specifically. I have an option that says "ECO". Its a few options down, on that menu, but once i toggled it off that light no longer comes on for me.

Would you be so kind to take a quick photo where this option is lying inside the menu ?

I will compare to my own NX. Thanks in advance

Thank you.

Unfortunately I have no option like this to turn off the stupid ECO light. It might be possible that it has been removed after NX lifting ?

Maybe Techstream can help with this ?

Lexus must have dropped the option sometime after 2017.

Actually I have managed to do that in my NX this afternoon. I found the option to disable ECO light somewhere in “Meter settings” in dash computer.
Thank you all for advice.
