Instrument cluster and center media console lighting....

[Woody6977]

Last night I was driving home in heavy rain. For no reason at all my dash and media console lighting kept going from medium lighting to 100% lighting as if using the dimming switch and moved it back and forth. During this time the dimmer switch was not working at all. I am thinking bad dimmer switch or could it be the dash light sensor?

A new issue after the alternator? I have noticed my instrument cluster does the same thing when I go from sunshine to darker areas and then back. It has done it since new. I figured it was part of the sensing system. Example: Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnels.

In the end I turned the dimmer all the way to 100% and changed the media center to dark mode... No issues since.... I am thinking regardless of miles, 10 years old is the limit for Hyundai Genesis models.

I hope not, I plan on keeping mine.
