Is the little LED in between the map lights supposed to be on when lights are off?

Just noticed this today.

Is that little LED in the middle that shines down on the console supposed to be on even when the lights are off?

They turn the map lights on/off when the doors are closed.

Edit: Now you changed the topic of the thread to cover it up. don't feel bad haha.

I know it's ambient lighting for the shifter, but I haven't noticed it on during the day. Will have to check mine too.

No actually, the switches were actually unclipped from when I hardwired my radar. I just now noticed...hence the edit.

But you apparently didn’t read it anyway. As I know what they do, mine weren’t working... :-)

I did read it, you asked if the map light buttons did anything. Then 3 minutes after I explained how they work you changed the subject of the thread.

I was fully aware of what they were supposed to do...guess you missed the sarcasm. No biggie.

I have no light on. Is this just in automatics? I never noticed any ambient shifter light.

My car is a manual. You have no little LED in your overhead console between your map lights? You definitely should...you kinda have to bend your head to look under and notice it, but you should have one.

It's hard to see in the day. hold your hand up to it and you'll see it
