Black Label Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Isn't it found within the infotainment screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Label Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I know this thread is kind of old now, but I think this is the solution. https://owner.lincoln.com/support/how-tos/sync/sync-3/settings/how-to-choose-ambient-light-color-with-sync-3.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpfarrell Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I just bought a 2020 Black Label that was built in November 2019... I'm not seeing any way to change the colors on the ambient lighting (admittedly a First World problem!). Any word if there's a software update available? When I get into the appropriate screen all I see is a slider bar for brightness, no color options are presented. Is the software a dealer update or available via wifi?

Are you in the Ambient Lighting screen within Settings? Edited April 20, 2021 by Black Label 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpfarrell Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Here’s what I’m doing... I hit “vehicle” , then “ambient lighting” and the 3rd screen is what I get... just the brightness slider. “Reset” repositions it to the center, and aside from sliding the slider... nothing changes.

Black Label Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 (edited) Scroll over one more time in the Settings. There is actually an Ambient Light setting that is different from what is in your pic. Edited April 20, 2021 by Black Label Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpfarrell Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 One more swipe in Settings gets me Valet, Personal Profiles, and Seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Label Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 That is odd. I have a 2020 BL Navigator as well. I have a tile labeled Ambient Lighting. Page 115 in the owners manual references it. I am out of town and can't get a picture of mine right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpfarrell Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it. My window sticker says Ambient Lighting as well... I think there’s a glitch in my matrix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Label Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Unfortunately, I am not surprised. As much as I love driving this vehicle, it has software glitches like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Label Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Page 518 in the manual says "Ambient Lighting (If Equipped). Every single Black Label Navigator is equipped with that. It isn't an option on the 2020 BL Nav. Sounds like a trip to the dealer to have whatever module reprogrammed is in order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Label Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 On a Lincoln forum I am on, it appears there were several people with Navigators built around the same time frame as yours. A Sync update fixed this issue for them. What version of Sync are you running? Attached is a pic from that thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
