Dimmer on Pioneer head units SUCKS.

[Big White]

I remember this issue from a pioneer unit I installed 15 years ago, and, WTF, they still have not changed?
Turning on the parking lights only dims it a LITTLE bit, and I can see no where that I can adjust it. WT flippin F?
I like it pretty dim at night, and that aint happening. At least you can turn it off, but why not adjustable dimming?

It is a FH-P8000BT unit. Love it otherwise.

Yeah, I can totally adjust the dimming on my Pioneer. Not sure how the models differ, but with mine I think the unit has to be turned off, then I hit the System settings from the Home menu.

This one has just on or off, at least so far as I can find.

go to pioneerusa.com and look for manual if you dont have one

Have the manual. It is either on or off, but no dimming steps. Kinda dumb in this day and age.
