PCM Center Console Display Brightness

[GaryT]

I have had no problem adjusting the brightness of the different areas of ambient lighting in the Taycan; but, have been unable to find a setting to adjust the brightness of the PCM and Center Console displays at night.

How do I adjust the display brightness which I find a bit too bright and distracting during night driving?

After a week with the car it’s driving me nuts. With all the screens on (pax display included) it must look bizarre to other motorists at night.

Other contributors have the same problem so clearly a common issue ! It’s on my list of questions for the dealer on Monday morning ....

Knowing that Several Porsche staff are active on the forum let’s hope that one of them can offer a solution ? Anyone found a solution / sequence ?

I’ve searched the manual / good to know app etc and there is no help there either !

Settings > Displays allows you to adjust brightness.

Power button (on climate control pad) allows you to turn off displays.

Tried it many different ways

In that mode there’s a slider to move +\- 5 from the Zero datum in all of the displays not nothing happens / there’s no “Save” or “hold” button for example and the screens don’t change at all - just the same fixed brightness .........

Must be missing something or it’s another bug.....

@Triyanya Did you try when it was dark outside? The Brightness -5 to 5 works instantly for me on all screens. It's not a huge difference if it's already bright outside, though, and it doesn't allow you to dim to the point of being hard to see. In the US (probably elsewhere as well) that's a requirement, nothing Porsche can do about it.

You can also turn off either the PCM and/or passenger display and they turn back on instantly when touched.
