I did read lots about the touchy voltage and so charged up and installed a brand new battery etc with no luck. (although I haven't done a great job checking the cable connections other than the battery terminals since they are hard to really look at..)
Every time I start the machine the display flickers as it goes through the normal start up routine, then starts out in the lowest daytime brightness setting. I have to brighten the display in the menu every time I start it. Doesn't seem like a very common issue from what I've found so far.
Next is remove the cluster and clean the rear plug connections and make sure the plug is tight.
Pretty big cost for a new display just to save going through the menu each time to brighten the display, but it is annoying.
You aren't starting it inside a garage or other structure.....are you ?
My RT does that and it is perfectly normal.
It "corrects" itself when it actually "sees" the sun for a minute.
Well then the light sensor is:
Broken
Unplugged
Covered up by something.
Wish I knew where it was located but I don't.
Hopefully someone else will.
Wild idea: is there possibly a "day", "night" and an "auto" setting available ?
