I've had the unit for a while...worked fine until one night it never switched into nighttime display.....double checked the menu option...that was fine....messed with my headlight switch...nothing....the option is displaying nighttime but its in day display...any ideas.

Check the illumination wire. It might have come disconnected. What kind of car is it in?

Mine never switches between day/night mode at all, I'm probably going to bring it back to the place where I got it installed and have them look at it.

It's in a dodge durango. Self installed. The wires are all properly installed and intact along with the connections. It seems like that end is working fine, seeing as how I can manually change the display menu to nighttime but it only stays in daytime mode visually.Sorry....confusing

What year is the durango? Is the illumination wire from the avic hooked up to the orange or the orange/white wire of the harness?

It is an 01 slt with the infinity system. I have double and triple checked my connections...like I said I checked the menu option where you can manually change the display to night or day but it wont change....I even went into the menu with the brightness contrast etc.... it's sensing the darkness properly just not changing......wtf....its been fine for months

Ok so where is the illumination wire of the z1 hooked up to?

Go to the connections screen and see if the voltage is changing for illumination when you turn on and off your headlights. If it is not, check your wiring. If it is, hold down the WIDE button to go to the screen display settings and check there... If none of those settings fix ya up, try a reset...
