During that delay, the instrument cluster may not be as bright as
usual. Make sure the instrument
panel brightness control is in the full
bright position. See
Instrument
Panel Illumination Control 0113.

lamps coming on varies based on
wiper speed. When the wipers are
not operating, these lamps turn off.
