I recently acquired a 2005 TL and am going through some of the little things that need fixing.

The display that shows the climate settings is -barely- readable. Is this how this display normally looks or should I replace it? (I did max all the illumination settings in the car I could find)

Does it sporadically flicker between bright/dim/off?
Or just CONSTANTLY dim?

Constantly dim. Essentially unreadable in any kind of sun...

Thanks @thoiboi
Still going strong all this time later.

Completed this fix and while the display works, doesn't flicker, etc. - it's still very dim. Is there by chance another brightness control for this unit? I have the gauges maxed and the nav illumination maxed - neither seems to affect the info screen...

Negative. No brightness controller for that screen that we can manually adjust.

tomjonesrocks

Fair enough - thanks for the reply. It definitely seem like this display is capable of being brighter than what I'm getting. Maybe I will try another (used) part...

I was thinking he probably has the headlights on and not on Auto.

Not truly at night, but in my garage with the lights off. This really is difficult to read during the day but admittedly looks OK here ...
