mine definitely changes at night when the lights are on. I havent tinkered too much with mine but in the setting see if there is a brightness setting and make sure the auto is selected and not the daylight all the time. Thats the only thing i can think of but i will check in the morning.

Luca is right. There is a menu setting somewhere (I assume display but I'm not in my truck) that you can set to daylight/night/auto. Auto is what you want. Also, the slider dial (not the technical name) that dims your interior dash lights plays a part. If it's all the way bright but not clicked on to where the interior dome lights come on, then the nav display will always be in daylight mode. Things to check :)

^^ only way I been able to dim mine is by dimming the inside lights. Under the headlights dial, dim the lights and NAV screen will turn black and it won't be as bright hope that makes sense lol

I had the same problem and stumbled across the dial for the interior lights. Set the setting on nav for auto and click the dial one click from the right. You should be good to go
