Lexus LX 2008+ :: NAV Screen Too Bright At Night
Feb 5, 2016
Too bright for me at night. A friend even told me " Stevie Wonder will see the map clearly". Is there a way to dim the brightness of the Nav screen?

View 4 RepliesMy screen is supposed to be dimmer at night, but now it always stay bright. I don't know how to set it.
View 5 RepliesI'm having an issue with my Nav system. I'm not sure if its going out or if it's due to the cold weather but it doesn't immediately come on when I start the car. At some point while I'm driving I'll notice that it's on and working but it seems to also be intermittently switching between the day and night time screen mode. How to check to determine if it needs to be replaced or if there is a fix?
View 4 RepliesRight now it doesn't chance background shade when at night time, it always stays white.
How to change so that it automatically changes to black when in night time ?
One thing that always annoyed me about my 2013 Prius C was that screen on the climate controls is SO BRIGHT at night, and turning the dimmer down didn't do anything to change it. I like a very dark dash when driving at night.

View 14 RepliesHow do you get the Navi Screen in a 2012 to go into night mode at night? Where is the setting to adjust this so it automatically goes night or day at the right time? Also is there a way to adjust the brightness of the main mph screen (multi information display)?
View 2 RepliesMy v will be 3 years old soon, and it has developed various electronics problem.
1. Night time GPS screen got so dark - now use Day time all the time as I learned that this was the prevailing issue.
2. The dealer swapped the GPS screen trying to fix the GPS screen issue. After the swap, I cannot switch back and forth between the map screen and audio screen. Once I am using the map, it just is a matter of luck to go back to the audio screen.
3. After using the windshield washer, the wipers do not come out automatically.
Now here is my problem - the problem 2 and 3 occur 98% of times - not 100% of times. When I took the car to the dealer, it was one of the 2% time and they could move back and force between the map and audio screen. Despite the fact that I showed them the video, the dealer said that they could not do anything as they could not duplicate the problem.
I am going to bring the car in again and tell them of the new problem 3. It was also videotaped.
Since having the latest entune update at the dealer, my GPS screen now automatically dims too much when the ambient light is lower in the evening. Tried messing around with the contrast and brightness controls and the rotary dimmer control on the left side of the dash.
Could not get the brightness to be like it was before the update. Street names are pretty much illegible at night. If I raise the brightness at night to the point where I can read the street names, the entire screen is super bright on the eyes.
Took the car to the dealer and they surprisingly agreed this is abnormal. Have an appointment next week to have this problem investigated.?
I Just bought my 08 GS 350 and the navigation worked fine except my road didn't show up. Not knowing much about navigation screens I assumed I could figure out how to update it by just going though some screens.....!!! I went through all the gps screens and got to a screen that said update gps or something like that..... but anyway I pushed it like a idiot and now its stuck on insert map dvd!!! I am like what?? Nothing came out though. Now I cant get the navigation to start back! Whats going on..where would a dvd come out at? How did I have navigation if no disc was in??
View 14 RepliesI just bought a 2010 LX and tonight I discovered that I may be able to play a digit copy DVD. So, the kids jumped in the car and inserted one of their movies(not Blu Ray) and we can only hear it. All we see in the video box is a blue screen.
View 5 RepliesI have a 2016 LX570 with 5,000 miles on the odometer. This morning the navigation screen is blank and the radio does not work. Took the truck to the dealer, they said Lexus is aware of the problem but does not have a solution. They will call me back when Lexus figures out what is wrong. No offer to give me a loner with a functional navigation unit.
View 3 RepliesMy headlights aren't that bright on my Lariat so I'm thinking about replacing them with after market.
View 3 RepliesI bought an '08 Elantra in October and I notice whenever I am driving on surface streets at night people are constantly flashing their lights at me as if I have my brights on. I don't. At first I thought it might be a coincidence and maybe they were trying to warn me about cops or something, but it happens way too often. On a 10-15 minute drive I get flashed 4-6 times on average.
I've started paying more attention to my headlights since I've realize they might have an issue and at first I thought they might just be too bright, but I do notice that I can see into the back of peoples' cars much more clearly than I can when I'm in other peoples' cars.
As far as I know they're stock headlights. Were they too bright or did they just need to have their angle adjusted? How hard is it to do that and is it expensive?
I just got my 2008 gen 2 prius and I tried to charge my phone using the cigarette outlet in the center console. it works but the power seems to pulse. the light on the charger goes dim and bright like it is pulsing and my phone keeps saying power disconnected.
View 6 RepliesIs there anyway to make the night mode on these Nav/Sirius radios darker?? In night and auto modes this thing is just too bright.....
View 1 RepliesAfter driving my 2013 GS350 F-Sport for sometime at night. I notice the headlight is not as bright and F-Sport doesn't come with Foglamp.
I have couples questions.....
1. What kinda light build does BMW n Mecerdes use? I noticed the color is much brighter and white/purples. (I like bright light. My wife 2nd Gen GS had 6K HID for both Low/High beam.)
2. Where I can get the foglamp install professionally? OEM parts and all.
2009 Lexus GS350 ... My interior lighting sucks on this car. There is LED lighting currently installed into the car but its not very bright. Also, there is no dome lighting other than what is in the back seat so when it gets dark out at night it gets very tough to see.
View 2 Replieshave problems with LKA while driving at night. While driving at day time, LKA works perfectly. However, if I drive at night (on the same road), LKA seems to work 1 out of 10 times, no more. The radar works fine day and night.
View 8 RepliesAccording to the navigation manual (attached), the navigation screen should go to the home screen within 5 seconds. But my IS never goes to the home screen without pressing the home button, but it always shows the full screen map. I tried many different things including "Auto Screen Change" setting but nothing seems to work.

These interior buttons light(sunroof open, close, up down and spot, on, off, spot)are not lighting up at nite when i turn on the head lights. Are they supposed to be off or something that dealer can customize it to be on/off option such as DRL lights.
