Middle interior overhead light won't go off?
 
Just purchased a used 2006 GS300. I noticed last night while I was driving that the small round overhead light in the middle will not go off, is there a switch or setting to turn it off?

If you mean that small LED, its ambient lighting.

So...no... it comes that way so that you can see the center console, drinks, etc., while driving at night.

if you turn the dimmer down to the lowest setting, it goes out.

so as the rest of your interior lighting

it's pretty standard now for all cars, bmw.. honda.. lexus

all have it, suggest you get used to it

Wait till he finds out about the LED light under the driver's sun visor shining on the steering wheel's Lexus logo. That will really freak him out:) :)

I love ambient lighting.

whlkev Sep 2, 2009 01:44 PM

heck yea.. one of the best, might be hard to believe, it's lexus' extensive use of white led that made me consider lexus in the first place..

TWong350 Sep 2, 2009 01:54 PM

Definitely a nice touch to light up the Lexus symbol. I like how the inside door handles light up too. Pretty slick.

It's too bad the LED light under the driver's sun visor shining on the steering wheel doesn't help you see the dimly lit buttons on the wheel better.

TWong350 Sep 3, 2009 10:30 PM

Yeah...I agree. I wish the buttons were brighter. I wonder if there's some sort. If aftermarket bulb we can put in to brighten it up.
