Can some one tell me what the Amber LED behind the mirror is ,and what it does ??

I want to know to! There is a little button on the mirror stem as well that makes it brighter, etc.

 

TMK, it is simply a little LED light that illuminates the center console area....many newer cars have these little buggers to highlight switches at night.

 

This one is on day or night no matter if your lights are on or not. Crazy...

 

I think that is true for all cars....

 

It actually points right at the ignition switch. if you ever get in the car in the pitch black (like in the garage when the lights are off) you'll appreciate it.

 

huh...through the steering wheel...I don't think so....

 

LOL I thought the same thing, but didnt go out to look at the angle...

 

I think he's talking about the LED in the door handle that points to the ignition switch.

 

Yes there is one in the door handle...

 

Yup... I guess I should read the thread more carefully. There are two indeed... one that shines on the shifter and center console... and one on the door handle that illuminates the ignition key.

Both are intended to keep you from fumbling around in the dark... something I do regularly since I leave for the office at 4:30am.

 

it's just a simple light. You can dim it by pushing the button raineycd is talking about.

 

Shines right on the drink holder when it is deployed

 

I still don't get it how long does it stay on ???

I think all the led's stay on for 2 or 3 days without activity. As I understand, they draw very minimal current.
