i just found out that when ever the car is ON, the power window and lock buttons are always lit. this means that even when its in the morning and my lights are off, those buttons are lit. Is it just me or it seems to be a pretty useless feature.

 

true with my 96 also. darn it, can any 2k2 owners confirm that the buttons are always lit when the car is ON?

 

it helps u locate buttons when ur in a tunnel..

 

Are the buttons on the steering wheel supposed to light up at night too?

 

lol...yeah, that's wat i thought. i guess nissan is really thinking now

oh yeah, got the prices yet? if not, can u ask about tokicos & H&R combo too? thx~

 

2k1 here & I can confirm only lit when parklight or headlight is turned on......

 

Ford had glow in the dark interior door pulls so you could find them...I never saw them but it prolly looks ghetto..

 

The '02 Altima does the same thing.

 

but if you are running on auto lights, shouldn't the lights come on if you are in a tunnel???(dark tunnel i mean)

 

Mine don't.....

 

No they don't. That is why all the buttons are of different sizes and relative heights to each other...so you can 'feel' for them rather than take your eyes off the road, especially at night.

 

no they don't.

 

 

cool, then i guess i'm not the only one. Where did all the 2k2 max ppl go?

 

doh! been busy lately with school and stuff and by the time i get out it's too late too call...sorry, i'll try to give them a call or go there sometime this week.

 

I found out that the lights have to change in 30sec-1min intervals. I park in the basement, leave auto on. When I start the car, the lights are on. When I pull out, the lights stay on even on a sunny day, but go off after about a minute.

 

 

probably a protection feature preventing headlights from turning on and off constanly when passing shades rapidly.

 

you know, strange thing was my 2k Max took about 30 -60 seconds to switch from on to off in auto.. but the i35 is within a couple of seconds. You'd think the delay would be better for the HID than the halogens in the 2k!

 

mmm...who knows wat nissan is thinking?
