Ambient Lighting Setting Gone?

[AnthonyMav]

I just had Ford do the Tail light turn signal recall and the Powertrain recall via their mobile service van and it did reset some of the radio settings. I noticed today that the button for the ambient lighting setting is now gone. Is it me or am I missing something/did it move somewhere else?

And regarding the recalls; the turn signal recall does not affect LED LasFit bulbs in any way. I made sure to confirm this. They also performed the powertrain recall, which from what I read only helps a glitch in the air/fuel ratios at max throttle... not sure what else it may do, but I hope it doesn't affect gas milage.

Any insights from you guys?

Wasn't the ambient lighting a Lariat specific feature? - Although it may have been present in the menu, not sure it would do anything in an XL/XLT, did it?

It was present on xlt. I have a 2022 xlt hybrid lux and have it.

It was a main menu item that you could adjust the lighting from OFF to full brightness. It's gone!

RESOLVED: The button is now only there when the headlights come on. Must have been a software update or something I never noticed. Admins, Feel free to delete the thread.

I had the 23E09 power train recall done. Truck seemed to run better. Do not know about max throttle as I don't believe mine has ever been there. I had 23E07 done about a month before if I remember correctly. After 23E09 I noticed on my Power point voltage monitor that my truck spent much more time with readings above 15.1-15.6 volts than before when it was 15.1-15.4 volts. Apparently something is requiring more current on 12v bus. No way to know for sure but it seems that 12v battery might be charging faster (just judging from higher float voltage after a short 5-6 minute drive to gate and back). I have never had deep sleep but have seen no dome light several times). As far as gas milage goes it's also hard to say but I see more tanks with over 43 mpg where as before 23E09 I seldom saw over 41. Leadfoot aka wife, main driver seems to be using Slippery mode more frequently.
Also: just had 23E07 & 23E09 done on my 2022 XLT LUX by the traveling tech in my driveway during which he said while looking at his laptop "They are updating some of the same modules", whatever that's worth. I assume quite a few things were updated by each one.
