Anyways, I let my wife drive my GS a couple of nights ago. Yesterday, I turn on my car and the Navigation screen had a black background when it normally has a white back ground. I was like cool. Then earlier today, I start my car and the Navigation screen had the white background again.
Now, I go out to my car and start it up and the Nav has a black background again. Does that have something to do whether is day or night outside? Is there a way to permantely keep the background black?
Yes it changes depending on available light. When I drive through a long tunnel in daytime it changes to the black mode. Not sure if you can over ride this or not. I don't want to, so I never checked on it.
Yes, the light sensors switch your NAV to "NIGHT MODE" when driving in dim or dark lighthing. You can override this feature by going into your display settings and selecting the daytime mode when the night mode appears.
