Very few vehicles have a 'lights on' indicator.On my version I get a green lit indicator to show lights are on.
Which means people will forget & think lights are on when it gets dark.Fiat did mention that, as by law all new vehicles have to have daylight running lights, one quick fix would be to connect the dash to that circuit. If any one wants to have a go at FIAT contact Carole at: customercare.uk@fiat.com.
see aboveIn this months MMM Fiat have acknowledged there is a problem and are working on a fix which involves illuminating the dash when the ignition is turned on. They say it will not be ready until the end of March. If you want to take advantage of the free upgrade then you need to contact Fiats free number which is 0080034281111 or visit the web site fiatcamper.com. Chasper.
+Which means people will forget & think lights are on when it gets dark.This afternoon, Friday 15th Jan 2016, The fix is a wiring change that will turn the instrument lighting on with the ignition. I pointed out that I have been able to achieve the same by switching the lights on during the day and that it does not fully solve the issue; the illumination is just not adequate. It is still not possible to see the instruments clearly in some lights. The lovely Carole promised to pass my comments on to the FIAT designers but was adamant their fix would work. I think we are being fobbed off by a cheap less than satisfactory response to their design failure.
