I noticed the gauges on my XKR are always illuminated, even in the daytime without the headlights being on. I assume this is by design but is there a way to turn off the illumination entirely?

Thanks,

dimmer switch on the steering cowl????
(damn seismoligists always making me think when trying to relaxe with a couple..few..or more beers)

 

I don't believe the dimmer switch on the steering column functions unless the headlights are on.

I think the gauge illumination is fixed when the lights are off.

 

If by fixed you mean always on at an unadjustable level then that is what I am asking about. It seems silly to have the gauges illuminated in the daytime, especially if the bulbs that provide the illumination are difficult to replace.

On at a preset level.

 

easy to replace

 

If they are easy to replace then in the words of Gilda Radner: never mind.
