Q: How do I adjust the instrument panel brightness in a 2012 Chevrolet Equinox?
How do I adjust the instrument panel brightness?
YourMechanic
The brightness of the instrument panel can be adjusted to your preference. To do so, locate the instrument panel brightness knob, which is to the left of the steering column, on the instrument panel. Rotate this knob clockwise to brighten the instrument panel, or rotate the knob counterclockwise to dim the instrument panel.
