MCP values very dim

[Thunderbird8 1]

Anyone know how to turn up the brightness in the MCP windows?

Small switch above the ND. Has 3 settings. Bright, Dim and test. Its for the cockpit lights test

In front of the yoke where the light controls are there is one that says "Main Panel" it controls the brightness of the numbers in the MCP as well as back lighting for other things.

I could be wrong but I thought that was only to light it up at night, it doesnt actually increase the display window brightnesses on the MCP?

Yeah but thats the only way you can adjust brightness of it, only effects at night, the switch on the forward panel doesn't effect the MCP brightness.

Bingo - that's it, worked, thanks.
