So I've recently installed the AVIC-X940BT and hooked up the illumination wire. When I turn the car lights on, the display dims. Great. However, when I turn on the car lights during the day (e.g. rain) the display is too dim.

For clarification, I'm talking about the radio display and not the navigation display. I know how to toggle the map display. I've search and search and can't seem to find a way to toggle the radio display dimming on/off.

Anyone know how to do this?

If you hold the MODE button for a couple of seconds, a secondary menu will come up. The dimmer control is at the bottom, iirc.
