As stated, my dashlights are not backlit during the daytime with exterior lights off. I find the dash too dark. Bought the truck used, has always been this way. Lights work/dim great with headlight switch on.

Thats how they’re supposed to work I do believe, unlike modern cars/pickups where the dash lights with the key on. Maybe @pushbroom can confirm as Im not familiar with the 567 only the 386 and 389’s.
pushbroom Thanks this. -
Ya thats the way they are supposed to be. You can just turn on the clearance lights and the dash will light up. Should be a dash dimmer switch on the left panel.
Dealer should be able to change cecu settings so gauges are back-lit all the time.Roberts450 Thanks this. -
Thanks guys. I'll talk to dealer and see if they can switch it around
