Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Corvette / August 2005Amber Light
I have a 2005 Coupe and just found an amber light on the clip that holds the passenger side sun visor. There is the screw hole to mount the clip and to the left of that there is a small amber light that you can't see from the driver or passenger seat. I found it by accident.I asked the Corvette Mechanic at my dealership and he didn't have a clue. does anyone here know what this light is for. Thanks. >I have a 2005 Coupe and just found an amber light on the clip that > holds the passenger side sun visor.

Actually that light was on the C5 also and very few people found it or even ask about its purpose. GM calls it the "interior console flood lamp"... which remains on at all times. In other words it's a night light, it's description is in the manual for the C5 but I don't recall seeing it in the C6 manual.

I should have asked you first, Thanks. That light is one of those little things that drove me crazy and NO ONE at the dealer , or owners I have talked to , had any Idea what is was, most didn't know it was there . Thanks again..... >>>I have a 2005 Coupe and just found an amber light on the clip that >>> holds the passenger side sun visor.

I noticed it right away because of the flailing hands on the right side as I turned it loose in 3rd and 4th the first time. Visually recognizable over the audible screams. :-]] SignatureLife is a sexually transmitted condition that is always fatal. >>>>I have a 2005 Coupe and just found an amber light on the clip that >>>> holds the passenger side sun visor.

For instance, one is in the overhead console, near the sunglasses holder, which gently illuminates the shifter. Our salesman was careful to point these lights out. I wonder why the Corvette salesperson didn't tell you about this feature during the walk through when you picked it up. AJM '93 Ruby coupe, 6 sp The "console light" is on the the bottom right-hand edge of the rear view mirror in my C4, is shown in the owner's manual and isn't on the build list so must have been part of the '89 base package. Have had this light in rental C5s for '98, '99 and '02. On a blackass night, this gizmo lights up the inside of the cockpit without screwing up one's night vision. In human-factors parlance, the color is referred to as, "low color temperature white." OK folks, now for the contest--when did this light first appear??

I think the wiper switch was located around that part of the dash.

I think it may have been to avoid the lights on the climate controls and shifter as that is all that lights my '79. My '68 doesn't have anything like that. > The "console light" is on the the bottom right-hand edge of the rear > view mirror in my C4, is shown in the owner's manual and isn't on the [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > turned it loose in 3rd and 4th the first time.

Had me baffled for a while, too. -- V Black/black/cashmere C6 ragtop F55/6-spd > I have a 2005 Coupe and just found an amber light on the clip that > holds the passenger side sun visor.
