I am trying to find a way to have my gauge cluster always fully illuminated without having to have my headlights on. Currently the gauge cluster will illuminate more the brighter the environment is. This feels backwards to me as I will often be in a parking garage during the day which has enough light to easily see other vehicles but the gauge cluster is completely dark and not visable. I would like to have the lights just always be on. I looked through the adaptations and coding through VCDS and did not see anything that looks to do what I want but wanted to check if there is some way to do this. Thanks in advance for the help!

Here is the code. I hope this is what you were looking for as the video that waslinked said I should be able to just start the autoscan through the Can Gateway but that said it was not supported so I tried using the 7th and 8th digits of my vin and that produced this. Thanks again for the help!
