I've noticed that sometimes my touch screen dims. I have convinced myself that it is not a fault but a feature, i.e. when it gets dark outside it gets dimmer to avoid me being dazzled.

It's doesn't seem to be tied to the lights coming on it seems to have a mind of it's own and yes manual dimming will make it dimmer 9or brighter) whatever state it is in. Geoff |

i'm sure the sat nav dimming is linked to the sensor for the lights and that sensor sometimes gets dirty or gives false light readings hence the occasional glitch. ... - .- -.

It may be that the light sensor is dirty. Perhaps the lights do come on aswell but it's light enough outside for you not to realise they are on..?

Sometimes I have to remind mine to dim by increasing the brightness by one notch and then reducing it - the link between lights on/ light sensor and screen brightness is fairly random for me! |

On the odd occasion my 2006 SC also has a mind of its own. |
