MBUX Navigation Symbol

I just got the MBUX update that changed the Home Screen to the navigation map. While driving home from the dealership, the icon showing my location on the map was a little car instead of the red arrow. I turned the car on this morning and the little car has changed back to the red arrow. Does anyone know how to change the red direction arrow back to a car? The owners manual has a photo of the navigation screen showing the car, noting that it can be a car or an arrow…but it doesn’t say how to select the car icon.

I believe when the screen zooms out it goes to a red arrow, and when zoomed in it shows a car. Not sure if that can be changed.

On another note I had the MBUX update via the recall, and now my traffic light view doesn’t come on when i am first in line at a red light. Will go back to dealer but not now as I do not feel like dealing with them.

Did you check your assistance settings for the traffic light camera?

Thanks, Phillyfinest, that is probably how it works. I too had the traffic light view go off after the update and I turned it back on in settings as js-cls suggested.

yup. It’s on and set to automatic vs on request. Still nothing.

What do you like about the traffic light view? To me it’s annoying

Nothing more than just knowing that a feature the vehicle is equipped with does not work. Hardly see it when it did work.

Gotya. I’m the same way. Paid good money for features to actually work
