Default Turn signal and windshield wiper controls not lit up at night??



Got this beauty with 120k miles on it recently and I noticed something unusual at night...

The sunroof and all the other controls located on the ceiling do not light up at night.. is that normal?

The turn signal and windshield wiper levers also do not light up at night. I can't see any of the windshield wiper settings! Doesn't seem like Lexus would do this to it's customers lol. Every other button and switch and light works in the car??

This is my first Lexus! Love it! Drives good.. shifts smooth (even got the tcm updated and tranny fluid changed). I'm having zero issues with this car. Everything works! Except these lights I think are out??

I hear ya, that was my complaint aswell. That said, I leave my lights in auto and don't really need them to be illuminated for using indicators.

Congratulations on your purchase, the car looks very clean. You may want to polish the headlight lens and coat it with some paint or headlight sealant. The yellowish contrast against the clean white paint is noticeable and spoils the look.
