Recommended Posts

Posted

1)WHEN I APPLY REVERSE AFTER DESENGAGING PARKING BRAKES THE DIC SHOWS:park assist off ,and rapidly it disappears ,but the park assist system works perfectly. :cheers:

 

2)EVEN IN DAYLIGHT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS ARE ON (only instrument cluster) no windows switchers button's ,etc... :dunno:

 

Is it a bug ???Do I need to update the ECM ,BCM ,TCM,etc???

tks

Park assist turns off when the parking brake is on. When you put it in reverse and then release the brake you will get the momentary warning. Try taking the brake off first, wait a second or two and then put it in reverse. You probably won't get any warning.

 

Cluster lights are always on just like the radio and a/c displays.

 

Both conditions perfectly normal IMHO and are the same on my 2008 LMM...

I have a 2007 and my cluster lights are always off unless my headlights are on.

 

You sure about that? Mine go on and off, but not necssarily with the headlights. I believe they use the same light sensor, but they are activated seperately and most likely have different parameters set.

Yep Jeff,They changed it for '08.

A lot of people were complaining it was hard to see the gages during the daylight,Particularly with sunglasses on.

There's a TSB for '07 owners that complained of having the cluster too dark and wanted them lit up, they replaced it with an '08 cluster.

 

Don't do this if you have an '07 LTZ/SLT and like the looks of your gauges because you will end up with an LT/SLE cluster instead!

 

Yeah, I'm still sore about this and I haven't been able to get it resolved even after a year now. :cheers:

I forgot about the TSB Bill,I remember your "issue" with the different font on the LT/SLE cluster.

 

Man,50k on your truck already :dunno: I remember you got it around the same time I got mine! I just turned 15k on mine last month.

Wait a minute, I have that problem. Sometimes the dash/radio is dimmed when it is still bright outside makeing it difficult to see. It is definitely reacting to a sensor. you mean the setpoint can not be changed? They have to replace the whole dash panel?
