You can adjust the night time brightness with the adjustment on the light panel

Did you try coding to separate those two functions?

I presume you have pressed the CODE button after selecting Aktiv?

Has anyone attempted the Alpina cluster display on a 530e? There is no RPM gauge on 530e, it only has the "power" gauge, so i'm curious what would be the case.

Yes i pressed code. Dash went black gas flickered and nothing changed. I did the basic coding before hand and put the m550 logo in the dash, should i put that back to no logo first?

Do you have the full digital dash or the part digital one (where the numbers are still physical
around the dials)

Enabled Alpina dash on mine today using Bimmercode. I never liked the standard/red dials - this is a vast improvement.

I have mine set to be the lovely blue dials all the time, I'm not keen on any of the sport dials, the comfort Alpina setting is perfect for all modes IMO.

Partial digital dash. Just thought of that. Assuming thats why it doesnt work. And theres no way to code alpina into that correct?

Don't think so, I've only seen Alpina pics of the "full" dash - it might be something that changes in the future though (presumably if alpina do a model with the part digi dash)

How then would you disable ALPINA in Bimmercode back to default?
