Does a DP controller dim?
Either I screwed something up or I found a dimming feature that I dont know how to reverse....
I was arming the no start feature, when I decided I wanted to park somewhere else, I tried to unarm the tuner with the truck running, but ended up with a "C" showing I pressed the "-" and it went into stock mode and the light dimmed?
I tried to repeat what I did, but I cant seem to get it bright again?
The truck runs fine, and all the tunes are ok...
Anyone ever come across this?

Yes, you can dim and brighten the LED display. If you have your original paper work it should say how to do it.

The directions refer to this as "Contrast", hence the "C".

The only parerwork I got was my list/order of my tunes.
"The notice" about changing tunes under load,
& "Recommendations" about letting it warm up before using the afterburners

THanks! I didn't get that either, had no idea I could dim the switcher and have always thought it's too bright at night.

Just a heads up, I am not sure if Dp wants the no start info up on an open forum.

It's also posted on two different powerstroke forums that I found. Once it's out it's out. Pretty hard to get the toothpaste back in the tube.
