I have a 2012 Grand Cherokee with OEM installed navigation system. The system will not switch automatically from daylight to nighttime backlighting. I have gone through the menu and found the screen where I can select from “day time”and “night time” and “auto switch”. I have selected the “auto switch” but nothing happens. Does anyone know what else I need to do to make it switch automatically? Thanks.

 

Hi kenr57,

This is from page 54 of the User Guide--are you using the dimmer switch to control the brightness?

"Display Settings
Press the MENU hard-key and touch the Display Settings
soft-key to access the Display Settings menu.
Select the Daytime Colors soft-key to switch to manual
daytime mode and to adjust the brightness of the display
using daytime colors.
Select the Nighttime Colors soft-key to switch to manual
nighttime mode and to adjust the brightness of the
display using nighttime colors.
Select the Auto Color Mode soft-key to switch to automatic
daytime/nighttime mode and to control the brightness
of the display using the dimmer switch of the
vehicle.
Touch the EXIT soft-key to save your settings and to
return to the AM/FM/SAT Menu."
