Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
I took QTips to mine, cleaning the lens which made it more apparent what their function was.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just noticed that I have a small faint amber light that does not go off even after the lights do. Super dull hard to see really but if it's very dark (in my garage night) you can see a very light glow coming from behind the mirror where it attaches to the windshield. There is a push button that you can push and it goes even lower but won't go off. Not sure what that is for? Anyone? The car is a 2001 C4

That�s your ambient lighting, shines down on your shifter and you will notice one each on your interior handle's . They will stay on for 5 to 10 min after the dome light goes off. I took QTips to mine, cleaning the lens which made it more apparent what their function was.
