Do the dash lights on your MINI change intensity when you...

press the button that is suppose to make it change? Or does nothing happen? I guess mines broke....and I was just at the dealer, (250 miles away), last Wednesday. Is there a trick to making this work?

I can't remember which way it goes, but by tapping the button the panel lights get Brighter? with each tap. And pressing and holding the button, the panels lights dim.

almost - the other way 'round.

Hold the button and they'll go bright, tap quickly and they'll dim in small steps.

One other good thing to know.......your headlights have to be on in order for you to be able to dim/brighten the dash lights. I also thought mine was broken until I accidentally found out what I was doing wrong!!
