I know it's been more than a year and 16,000 miles but I've got a noob question.

Does the green light on the Start button stay on once the car is started or have I just noticed the darkness?

I have donned my asbestos underwear awaiting your reply.

Thanks.

As I recall, it goes out once started.

After realizing that others weren't seeing the 'ring', I looked at mine a bit more carefully, and see that it only comes on under very specific circumstances... such as when the car is in the garage, and the chrome bezel reflects the light from the brake lamps.

LOL hehehehe ok. You're forgiven.

I was about to reply that it stays on continuously once the car is started....hmmm, guess I'll have to just look next time I drive. [/b]

IIRC, that is that way it used to be before the ECM software upgrade re-flash.

Sure, you got off easy... but I'll have to live with the fact that I thought my chrome bezel was glowing.

I might start a new thread complaining about my orange glowing bezel not glowing orange!
