Switch Lights of Remote Touch Always Illuminate or cannot be Controlled Using Rheostat [10/2014 - 09/2017]: Procedure

1. Perform the following procedure and check that the illumination controlled by the rheostat switch illuminates properly.
   1. If the vehicle is in a bright area, move it to a dark area.

      HINT: 

      When the vehicle is in a bright area, the switch illumination may not turn on due to the auto dimmer function.

   2. If the light control switch is in the AUTO position, turn the switch to the tail or head position.

      All of the illumination controlled by the rheostat switch illuminates properly.	B

      HINT: 

      The shift lever illumination and panel switch illumination are controlled by the rheostat switch. If either of these has a malfunction such as an open circuit, the switch illumination of the remote touch is affected and cannot be controlled by the rheostat switch.
