Didn't realize that was "a thing," even in a '22.

More of a distraction than anything.


Only thing I can think of is that maybe it's a fuse that's blown. How are the other accessories near that area working, cell phone connection, wireless charging pad (if you have that behind the armrest)?

Dredging up an old thread but can anyone confirm the cup holder lite is ALWAYS included in the Oem ambient liting kit along with the side door panels strip and over radio strip. My my2022 had the Oem kit installed at dealer and see there’s no lite strip in cup holder. Dealer said it didn’t come with kit??

As a side note, after getting my bcm software updated last week, only the door liting strips function, not the radio strip. I read install of ambient lighting requires bcm update. Back to dealer next week…….

The 3LT, 2SS and ZL1 get the full specturm lighting feature from the factory, except for the footwell lights that is available as a separate kit.

Spectrum lighting can be retrofitted into lower trims using this "ambient lighting" kit, but that doesn't include the radio and the cupholder, only door cards and the footwell. There is no official way to achieve complete ambient lighting functionality on these lower trims.

No idea why GM had to complicate this so much.
