V Class V250d & V220d
Ambient lighting problem (fix required please)

Hello

First of all I am new to the forum so please keep me on a straight line when it comes to posting :-D

I have just bought a 2017 V220d to compliment my 2018 V250d. I have a couple of issues I hope you can help me with!

The Ambient lighting controller isn't controlling the brightness. It's either on (level 1) or off (level 0). Changing it to levels 2-5 has no effect on the brightness of the LEDs. It does control the low level lights in the rear. There is also no footwell lighting in the front which my V250d does have, is it standard equipment?.

The van is out of warranty so I can see the money signs in my local dealers eyes if this isn't an easy fix. Definitely non-essential.

Thanks in advance!
