Gear indicator on the console?

[TXCobra]

Apologies for the dumb question, but do any of you have a light or color change on the P-R-N-D-M indicator to the left of your shifter on the console? I know the dash next to the speedo tells you what actual gear you are in while in drive, but I thought on my '14 the letter would turn orange based on what position the shifter was in (maybe I am rembering that wrong), but nothing changes when I shift on the '17. It's not that I need it, but was just curious if it was something was missing or broken on mine. Thanks!

Now you’ve got me thinking...

I know I’ve ended up in M, instead of D inadvertently. Guess I’ll have to take the Raptor out for lunch to check this out!

You get a chance to grab lunch smurfslayer?

To the side of the shifter, no color changes. Only color change is on the dash infront of you.

 

[TXCobra]

Ok, as I suspected. Thanks for confirming.

had to wait for dinner, but confirmed. The dash transmission selection (Not gear) indicator goes orange but I find it a little easy to miss. Probably because I’m too busy gassing it.

I did a drive comparison between sport and normal mode....

Do yours light up? Just picked up an 18 on Saturday and noticed last night that it doesn’t light up at night.

No only the ones on the dash light up. Not the ones on the console. Congrats on the new truck.

They apparently did away with this during the 18 model year. Early builds appear to have it. There's another thread on this and from what I've read, the plug is still there and you can get the part and install it so the PRNDM lights up, but doesn't show what position the selector is in. The part number is also available in the other thread. One member got his dealer to order the part and they'll install. I'm planning on doing this as well.

Thanks bro. I wonder if I should go and ask the dealer to do it. [emoji848]
