Any Way to Set Default Dash View?

hshot_rooke · 12-14-2017, 10:25 AM

Hey folks

Does anyone know if you can set the default dash view?

I know you can turn on/off different views if they don't matter to you, but I want to know if for example, you can set the default dash view to the 'temperature' view as the first view. Everytime I get in the car, I have to cycle through my views until I get to the proper one.

I'm pretty sure mine just remembers what ever was showing when i last turned off the car and displays it at next startup. I'll have to double check.

Yep, can confirm i switched to temp display and turned the car off, returned an hour later and was still on temp display at startup.

The LCI cars had the cluster bug that required a re-flash to fix... on my car at least, it was causing the cluster to not remember the last-used setting some of the time. No idea if that would be happening on 2017 cars though.

Mine is also LCI but it remembers the setting. I guess mine doesn't have this bug?

Agreed, I got my LCI updated yesterday during the break in service, and it now seems to be remembering where I left it, even overnight.

Of course, there are a few things that cause it to deviate from that: Navigation messages, and warnings like low fuel.
