Default Illuminated Dashboard Controls???

Hi all,

Was wondering, does the Power Window control and Dashboard Intensity rotary ****, which is located on the left side of the steering wheel, illuminate when the park lights are turned on?

I was driving and had to adjust my mirrors, however it was pretty dark, and decided to fumble in the dark for the controls, because those weren't illuminated. I know I could just as easily turn the interior lights on, but had some filks soundly sleeping

Wondering if it's just my vehicle or all RXs.


Thanks, ya'll.


Sheldon.

There's no illumination on the intensity control ****. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I've noticed that on my '02, the driver's window control buttons are on when the car is running. I've noticed them go off either when I turn the car off (the headlights are still on) or when I open the driver's door. I can't remember which.

My window control buttons are lighted a faint green. They stay on when the vehicle is turned off as long as the vehicle has accessory power. That's about 30 seconds I think, or until you open the door.

Hi there, thanks for your responses....

You mean the side power "mirror" controls? If so, no it does not light up. Neither does the memory button right next to it for the power seat.
