Re: Ambilight
I'll need your VIN to check the system you have and options, but generally the ambient lighting on this model has 2 functions:igracanac wrote: ↑18 Oct 2019, 09:37 First sorry for my bad english.

Night Time Driving
Vehicle Location Function (with Fob) - which is part of the welcome function.
So the welcome lighting works when the doors are opened, (as you say) or when loating the vehicle at night using the fob.
When driving at night the ambient lighting level can be controlled or turned off - so you need to check the rheostat switch shown below in the picture. Holding it one way or the other (rocker switch) will turn it up or down, so make sure it has not been turned off completely, as the lighting level is memorised once you let go of the switch!

Re: Ambilight
The point I was trying to make is that the internal ambience lighting only works when driving at night, so we need to determine if there is even a fault first.
But we also still need the VIN to check any changes to the functionality based on model and build date.

Re: Ambilight
It's possible the interior lighting unit has a fault - or there could be a wiring fault.
It' item 9 highlighted below:
Part 6554VK for reference. It's located behind the passenger dash
Some info:
The purpose of the interior lighting electronic control unit (light pack) is to control the lamps dedicated to the night-time ambient lighting and the welcome lighting:
Below the dashboard on the driver’s side and on the passenger’s side

That is part of the ambiance lighting.
According to version, the interior lighting electronic control unit (light pack) permits dual-function lighting (Night-time ambient lighting/welcome lighting) using the following components:
