Just received my 2015 Summit. The drivers instrumentation is so dim can barely read it on a bright day . Forget opening the sun roof. Is there any way to brighten it. Tried the roller knob but it only works while the headlights are on. Any ideas?

Display Mode
When in this display you may select the Auto or Manual
display settings. To change Mode status, touch and
release the “Auto” or “Manual” soft-key. Then touch the
back arrow soft-key.
Display Brightness With Headlights ON
When in this display, you may select the overall screen
brightness with the headlights on. Adjust the brightness
with the + and – setting soft-keys or by selecting any
point on the scale between the “+” and “–” soft-keys.
Then touch the back arrow soft-key.

Forgot to note that if you do run the thumbwheel up to the detent for full brightness, the UConnect settings are overridden, and if memory serves the menu item disappears.

Set the UConnect daytime as bright as it can go, and adjust the night for typical driving.

I still find the thumbwheel much easier to use, particularly when changing from under a Colorado thunderstorm back to light, or unpopulated mountain road to city streets/lights.

Is your headlight switch set to on or auto? If the headlights are on auto then the gauges will dim anytime the headlights kick on. If you are manually turning your headlights on then I assume they would be dimmed all the time.

So you folks that talk of 15's are actually talking about MY15. Your car's are not actually 15's, there 14's. The same as my MY14 SRT is actually a 13. When it comes time to sell it's the build date that makes the difference.

BS marketing tricks from all brands these days. Anyway, carry on :)

LOL... yet everywhere you mention your SRT you call it a 14. :D

Around here, to the best of my knowledge, when it comes time to sell they go by MY not BD.

Was at the dealer a few days ago... they have three 15's sitting on the lot.
