Title: AK550 "Mode Indicator" light
Post by: edsena on April 24, 2025, 05:02:47 PM
Hi,

I recently bought an 2024 AK550 (older model, not the "Premium" version) and I'm intrigued by the "Mode Indicator" light; I understand that its color represents whenever the bike is in the rainy (ambar) mode or not, but despite the color sometimes the indicator is lighten up, sometimes it's not (the color is still visible, but its luminescence is almost zero).

The user manual does not make any reference to this behavior, does anyone knows what this (light on/off) means?

For those who have the same question in the future:

The light goes on/off according to the luminosity sensor on the dash; The intermittent on/off characteristic that I noticed usually happens on my building's garage when I ride by a light on the ceiling;

BTW -- turning the "auto brightness" settings on the app does not change this behavior.

I noticed this behavior when riding at night. The dash would either dim or brighten depending if I was under or between the street lights. So I solved the issue by turning off auto brightness and keeping it at maximum all the time.
