Interior Spectrum Lighting

tybuch2003 · 04-17-2016, 08:40 PM

Has anyone else experienced any issues with the interior spectrum lighting? It will only work for me when it goes through the show mode when the car is parked. It will cycle through the different colors. When you are driving the interior lighting is not visible, or is off even when you change the modes of driving. Also when you get into the lighting system on the radio it does not display any of the icons to change modes or lighting pattern. It is a blank screen when you enter the lighting setting. I turned the car off multiple times to see if it would reset. I also did the factory reset on the radio and it did not change anything. Today was the first time I drove the car.

You have it set to show mode, so it only shows when parked. You need to click on the 'link to drive mode' or select a color

Can't you set it to one specific color for any mode/while driving/parked/etc?

No, nothing is showing inside the lighting option. It's a blank screen when you click the lighting icon. The show mode will come on automatically when the car is in park. None of the interior ambient lighting works when the car is in drive. It is like the lighting feature is turned off.

Maybe that's what happens when you set it to "show" mode and start driving. I haven't tried this on mine yet, but thats my hunch.

Mine did this same thing last night. The 4 lighting options (turn lighting off, show mode, led strips and driving mode) were not available, and just the bottom menu item to select colors was available but gave an error when selected. I stopped to fuel up and when I restarted it, everything was back.

Sounds like the disappearing Driving Mode menu issue. Did you notice it starting after a remote start? My Driving Mode menu disappeared today after a remote start.

I didn't use the remote start, but it does appear there are some software bugs in the MyLink system GM will have to work out.

Mine after a few starts starting working fine again. I'm going to chalk this up to just a software glitch. It has not happened again for me since.

This has happened to me several times within the first week of owning this car. Not cool for how much this car costs...

Anyone know of a fix yet?

Nated421 · 02-25-2017, 12:41 PM

Mine does the same thing when I use remote start feature. Click on lighting menu and nothing pops up. Can't change color or put into show mode or anything. If I shut off car for 15 mins and start up using push start it works. Sometimes I'll have to turn on/ off 2-3 times. Hopefully yours starts working again, and hopefully GM will fix these software issues!!##

If they ever do fix, will it be a downloadable update? Or do we bring it in to a dealer?

Nated421 · 02-25-2017, 06:28 PM

It'll have to be brought to dealer I would assume. My boss had to bring his in because apparently at 13-15k these a bug that causes the software to have to be reinstalled. The dealer said this something that will have to be done to all 2017"s and that Chevy was aware of problem. Wether this is true or not or they were just telling him some bs I don't know. We shall see

anyone have the best way to replicate this issue, service center is asking me to show them what's going on.
