What is this amber indicator light? 24 Heritage

Got it in my 24' Perf too.

I could be wrong but I think it's supposed to be your glovebox light. At least that is where mine is basically pointed. So you have a little light in the cab without having to turn on the bright lights.

I have been on roads out of town with no street-lights and it gives a decent amount of glow to the passenger side of the car.

I’ve never noticed this on the JDM / Australian version… let me check it out.

My G37 had this, but white.

It seems to be just a dim amber cabin light to help you grab your phone or whatever from the center console. I like it.

It is always on. Is there a menu item or ability to turn it off? Please don't suggest a 1x1 piece of black electrically tape over it.

Ambient cabin light. All models/markets have it.

Its orange because the whole lighting cluster is carried over from the 370z and it had an orange led

Would've been nice to change this to blue
Seems really off in the Z

It's easy to change the LED color.

However, blue is the worst possible choice for nighttime illumination.

Several Nissan and Infiniti vehicles have the same light, I've used red or dimmed warm white LED.

Heh, heh, heh… same here. I’ll try to remember to look for it next time I’m in the Z.

Wow. Cool story

It is an internal ambiance light before everyone went to LED trim lights throughout the car. My 2012 G37, 2013 Pathfinder, 2019 Titan, 2024 QX60, and 2024 Performance all had it. The only one in Amber is the Z.

Yep. It illuminates your console during darkness.

I've had half a mind to get in there and change it. Simply not bright enough to be usable imo. The new screens overpower it.
