Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Blank Next To Dimmer / ESC Buttons
Apr 19, 2013
In the 2009-2010, there is a blank all the way to the right panel next to the Dimmer/ESC buttons. My question is for those of you to have removed their dash, is it just a blank plate or does it have anything behind it?
I am going to mount my fog light switch there since i don't plan on removing them from the car and I do not plan on installing the oem multifunction switch. I have a really nice switch with blue light to match the interior cluster blue and it would be a nice use of a blank plate along with a functional location.

I got all my recalls done a couple of months ago. The dealership should have fixed a recall regarding a bad gear shift. It was fixed for free. However, I seem to be getting a bad gear once in a while. The gear on the dash goes blank. The problem is difficult to reproduce with a test drive. Now I wonder if the dealership will charge me this time, since it was already fixed once.

This morning, while backing out of my driveway, I lost reverse for about one second. It disengaged, just revved, then engaged on its own. I looked down and the "R" on the indicator next to the shifter was not shaded red. Put it into drive to go up the street and "D" was not shaded blue. I then looked up at the dash and the gear indicator up there was blank. Turned the car off and back on and everything has been fine since. 2011 GLS, 43000 miles.

2012 GLS ... For a few weeks after buying my car, the cruise control electronics were perfectly responsive.
I find that after a few thousands miles, I am able to turn ON the cruise control easily, but often now pressing the 'Set' button doesn't do anything until I press the On/Off button and turn it back on, hit Cancel a bunch of times, and THEN it might let me 'Set' the CC.
It kind of scares me to think that the CC could malfunction and not let me turn it off AT ALL one day, which is far worse than simply not being able to set the CC.
Would the dealer be able to simply "reset" the electronics pertaining to these controls?

How to remove the switch panel. My car didn't come with any fog lights and I'd like to remove blank filler without scratching my dash?

Am I the only one experiencing radio display blackout? I have a 2006 Explorer Sport Trak. the radio display goes blank and stays blank. Do I have to replace the whole unit or is there a fix?

I have a 2012 GLS and on the way to work this evening I noticed that the volume/channel buttons on the steering wheel for the radio will not work. The mode button still works properly, so I attempted to change the radio station on the radio itself to no avail. No buttons other than the volume work on the radio as well.

For the past few days, every time i turn the car ON (with the headlights ON), the nav screen, clock and surrounding buttons illuminate as they should, but after ~3 seconds, the illumination for the surrounding buttons and clock shut off.
Also, the touch-screen functioning and surrounding buttons do not work at any time. The nav screen remains illuminated, however the touch-screen buttons and surrounding buttons do not work. If i turn the car off and restart, same thing; all lights illuminate for about 3 seconds then stop.
During the day with no lights on, the clock will illuminate for ~3 seconds, then shut off just like above. None of the surrounding buttons (climate, map, infom audio, display, etc) work at all.
What would cause this unusual condition? I feel like if a fuse were blown, it wouldn't work, period. But, the lights illuminate for a few seconds before shutting off.
The emergency flasher button works and illuminates always, and the passenger airbag lights do, likewise. I pulled the nav unit from the car and checked all cables, and they all appear in place.
I can communicate with the car via the voice commands, but that's it.
what might be causing these strange symptoms?

I have an issue with my 06 GS430.
This all started this morning when I first started the car. The clock does not display, all of the buttons to the left, right, and bottom DO NOT work (this is NOT good because I cannot control the climate, turn on a/c, heater, NOTHING) navigation touchscreen works (but again navigation push buttons to the right of the screen do not work).
So, the only thing that works is the Radio and the Navigation touch screen! Also, all of the push buttons surrounding the navi screen do not illuminate at night when lights are on.
Things I have done:
-Checked fuses (IG)10A ECU-IG RH, (ACC) 7.5A ACC, (BAT) 7.5A TV, RAD 1,2,3
-Hard Reset - Disconnected Neg. Battery Cable for 20 min.
Is there anything else that I can check for or is my entire Navi Console Unit shot?

I had my car in storage for the winter, pulled it out today.
The one headlamp was dimmer than the other. The other was operating fine.
The dim one went out after a few min. I restarted the car and it came back on dim.
Is this a sign that the bulb is burning out? or something else? What is the usually lifespan on these bulbs?

It's too bright for nighttime driving: The reflexion onto the dash makes it look like I have a constant ghostly green bridge overhead at all times through the windscreen.

OK. I just had a major repair on my 2001.5 Passat where they had to remove the dashboard. Now some of the little lights are out. You know the ones that are around the vents. The light on the vent on the far left that blows on the drivers left hand side. And the lights on the 2 middle vents are out. Will they now have to remove the whole dashboard to repair these lgihts? Also the light on the radio display appears a little dimmer now.

Did a search but no results. Starting to get our first dose of cold weather here in PA. Temps were around 30 and car was garaged all night. Went out yesterday morning and noticed slower than normal starting like the battery was low. The rest of the day the car started fine. Went out this morning and the car was dead. Had dash lights but they were dim. Clicking but no crank. After returning from work, dash lights were even dimmer than before like something was draining the battery. Called VW assistance and had someone jump the car to get it started. Drove it to the dealership.

One of my front headlight bulbs is dimmer than the other one - they are only 2 years old. Where can I find a cheaper OEM one?

I just picked up my 2013 Passat and was out driving this evening and tried to dim the interior lights. The dimmer toggle to the left of the cluster doesn't work.

I have aftermarket headlights and when they were put in and to today the passenger side lights are dimmer than the drivers side light. the mechanic supposedly changed the outlet and socket and said it was just something to deal with.

So, if you've ever replaced bulbs in your Prius you'll notice that the rear taillight assembly has a light source on the very top that you just can't replace.
It appears to have a similar release collar than the lower bulbs but this fails to release.
So, I've been told by my Toyota dealer that they will have to replace the ENTIRE right rear tail-light housing since those bulbs are LEDs and as such are non replaceable.
What if the left side does the same thing not long after? Where the very top portion of the taillights are dimming to invisibility? Any better method for replacing this?

All interior lights (window switches, gauges, etc.) are all out. Headlights work, map lights work. He told me the dimmer switch is very warm all the time, but everything attached is out. Would it be a faulty dimmer switch? I had him check all the fuses, relays, but they're all good. I was wondering if he would need a new dimmer switch all together.
