Brightness of led gear, temperature indicators
Is there a way to control the brightness of the white led gear indicator on the instrument cluster and also the temperature levels on the lower central unit. Mine are extremely bright and glaring in the dark. I can’t find any of the brightness controls that change them.

Did you try this with the ignition and lights on whilst parked in darkness, as the ambient light sensor will affect this? The centre console lights, including the temperature numbers, certainly adjust up and down in brightness on my MY17 Turbo. The effect appears greater on the switch lighting, less so on the brighter temperature numbers, but they do dim up and down nevertheless.

Hi, I’ve recently acquired an early (2014) Macan S (Diesel) and have exactly the same issue, very bright and glaring indicators for the internal cabin temperature. I’ve tried the dim control next to the speedo and gone through all of the options on the menus and the internal lights on the roof, all to no avail. I don't really want to have to take the central tunnel apart unless there’s a good reason to do it. There are no code faults reports on the diagnostic computer either, so it’s a bit of an odd one. Anyone else have this problem or any suggestions? I’m going to cover these with headlight tint film if I can’t find an answer as these indicators are driving me crazy during night driving….all of the other instrument lights dim as you’d expect. Perhaps its a software issue but I can’t get an answer from Porsche UK about it, so any thoughts would be welcomed…
