Hi all,

This is probably a really stupid question but my interior lights aren't coming on.

I very rarely drive my QQ at night so I'm not sure when this first arose. I had to go out very early this morning, it was still dark, I started my car, the headlights came on as did my instrument panel lights but that was it. I couldn't see any of my switches and knobs, even all the buttons on the steering wheel weren't illuminated.

Now, am I talking out of my butt or are all the buttons supposed to be illuminated, it's been so long since I last drove in the dark I honestly cannot remember. The electric window buttons on the door are illustrated though.

Regards, Chris.

Chris, let me throw the first spanner in the works. You had the Full Gyeon Treatment Done Inside & Out. Worth a check as our Dealer has a habit of switching the Internal Lights OFF when in the Workshop - Battery related - Dave 🤨

Hi Dave,

I've just been outside to check the button/switch lights and everything is working as it should, my steering wheel etc is lit up like a Christmas tree. Not sure what went off there but all is ok again.
