Shift lights

[Audio Addict]

Is there a way of switching off the shift lights when driving at night or is it just a case of covering them up with something? 

I find them very distracting when It’s dark and find myself covering them with my hand which isn’t ideal

Add a dash mounted toggle switch in the live feed to the shift lights?

If they’re the Aces type they have 6 brightness settings and off. 

Don't ask me how you adjust them........

Hi JP   you will find the Aces user manuals here  under technical support

Thanks for the replies, shame you don’t get a notification when it happens.

Hello Mark, cheers for the link that’s very handy

If you haven't seen it in the manual, the default mode of the up arrow on the control box is to increase brightness, the down arrow to decrease it.

My Aces lights are setup so they're basically off during normal to normal-ish driving.

• Idle light <1750 rpm
• First amber rev light >5000 rpm (my redline is 8100 rpm)

So, when driving home from the pub meet circa 23:00 hours, I don't have any distracting lights in my face (provided I'm above 1750 rpm and under 5000 rpm - which I am, excluding being sat at traffic lights!).

Unless I'm driving in such a style that will be taking me near the redline, I find I don't need the shift lights, so as long as you don't do that at night, you could consider my setup instead of changing brightness continually.
