mine does that only first thing i the morning. ISTR that it's to try to protect the screen in the case of very cold weather etc. But it shouldn't do it on a run.

Hav eyou had any other electrical issues or had the iginition on for a long time during the day (to run the battery down perhaps) Bodsys Brake Bible

Yes I've seen it do that. If you get a torch and shine it on the light sensor in the bottom of the rev counter, you will see the sat nav illumination change. It will do it in stages, and when you see it flickering bright and dark, its just between two levels.

Nothing to worry about.
