Hi all.

Since it's now starting to get dark earlier I just noticed something for the first time.

The door lock/unlock button on the driver's side is only lit on the lock icon. the unlock icon is not lit.

It's not really that big of a deal but I was just curious if that was the same on everyone else's G. It's plenty easy to tell which way to flip the switch to unlock the doors but I hadn't noticed it before.

I will also have to check the passenger side next time I drive to see if it's the same thing on that side.

Mine's like that too, I think it's normal.

 

Same here. I've noticed it on other cars too (Volvo S40). Not sure why they made it like that, but it looks like the light is out. If anyone has an answer, I would love to hear it.

 

Same thing here too. That's the way it comes. BTW, passenger side is the same too.

 

Thanks guys. That's what I suspected. If you can ID the button and clearly see the direction for lock it's pretty easy to determine how to unlock.

Just wanted to make sure I didn't have a bulb out.

Yes it's normal, and I've wondered about this too. The best answer I can come up with is a safety issue; if you ever need to lock your doors in a hurry, you look down and there's only one lock icon. Hit that, and your doors are locked, no hunting for lock vs. unlock.

 

^that would be my guess as well.

 

also if you notice I believe the Window lock doesnt light up as well right? I havent looked in a while...

 

Funny I just noticed it last night and was wondering the same thing..

 

mine too...i have wondered if it was just mine! ha ha ha
