Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem before. My screen stays on daytime setting when in automatic mode. For nighttime I have to switch it manually. Can't seem to figure out why it won't automatically switch in the auto mode.

I thought it was adjusted based on the dash brightness?

It took me a while to figure this out too. I thought if the dash dimmer was rotated to the right, beyond the click, then that meant I was in automatic dimming. Nothing I did through the touchscreen to adjust it worked. It stayed bright as hell unless I manually rotated the dimmer to the left at night. If you rotate the dimmer all the way to the right and it clicks, simply rotate it back to the left just enough to get on the other side of the click. Then you’ll be in automatic mode and can adjust it according to your preferences through the touchscreen. Hope this works for you!!
