Interior lighting
I change my interior ambience lighting to blue and full brightness. Next time I get in the car the colour reverts to red half brightness. Anyone else found this?

Did you use the same key? According to the owner's manual, "The selected setting is stored for the driver profile currently used." Mine stay the color selected.

Yes same key, I have tried setting the guest as blue colour so could check that. ‘Mirrors fold when locked’ also seems to decide if the tick box is Ticked or not despite what I do.

Do you have a 2nd driver's profile? Might be worthwhile to switch all profiles including guest to blue. I haven't tried it lately, may have been fixed with a software update. |

Solved?
Too clever for its own good perhaps? I switched the comfort access to ‘open on approach’ back on and now the lights stay blue.
I did lose all my other home screens a few weeks ago too. |

Not on mine. Was running blue switched to red then back to blue finally bronze(?) where it is now. No problems just one question.
Are the light channels on the console deck only on the passenger side?

Question for all owners while i await mine to come in. How many colors does the ambient lighting have? I was unable to find out anywhere how many colors thanks. My 440I only has white and red which is a bummer.

Actually, there are light channels under the main screen and drivers air vent. There is a setting that turns them off for night driving. I turned them off and now get a consistent blue glow.

Older thread but I figured I would ask here to see if anyone knows. It doesn't appear the light strip in my center console is on or doing anything but I can clearly see the light strips on the dash and doors working properly.
Is there a way to control them individually that I haven't found? Or is it possible that my console light strip has been disabled or is non-functioning? |

If its still not working with the colors set the connector may have come loose, it's a little plug that sits over the beginning of the strip in the center console, and its not really held in place at all, so maybe it popped loose or something. it's a pain to reach it so if you still have warranty don't try do do that yourself

I agree, definitely do not use the colors that are combined with white if you want to see a brighter color.
