Default gear indicator is blank

I have a 2007 Roadster with an auto shift trans the problem is the gear indicator is blank regardless of gear selection.

Is this something that needs to be or can be activated by the dealer ?

It just seems weird to me that all other displays ie clock, odometer, tripmeter, idiot lights, etc, are working but not the gear indicator especially when it's backlight works so there must be power there.

Any help or info on this would be appreciated because although it doesn't affect the operation of the car now that I know what the blank space is for it's driving me crazy the fact that it isn't working. And yes I did try a search but all that came up was guys with manual shift complaining that theirs didn't work either but as I said mine's a auto.

Have you installed the paddle shift kit?

I have not, just got my 30M check up. Do you think my dealer un-did something?

Yes. Ask them if they hooked up the Stardack tool!. Then, when they say yes, tell them they deprogrammed the gear indicator.

They generally just put it on a hoist and see where they could charge you for new brakes etc.

In the worst cases they often do nothing except move it from A to B and give you a bill. LOL

Maybe they replaced your tach with one from a MT6?
