Mine too. I get on it from time to time and never noticed any arrows light up before shifting.

Manuals don't use it either. It's either something they wanted to implement and changed their minds or something for another application/out of US market.

I've driven numerous manual trans Dodges and it's never been used.

Do either of you have a V6? I think only V6's may have it activated. Just exploring possibilities.

You know it might only be activated for the Rumble Bee and/or SRT-10?

Just my thought on it....

also, it seems to be activated for 2nd Gens...?

Where is the "Dodge Cares" team when you need them?
I bet they can get to the bottom of it.

Take a picture of it... I'm curious.

His arrow points up. Not likely his gas filler is on the roof. Guess I'll need to squint at mine next time I drive it. I've never noticed an arrow next to the "1".

relocated for more horsepower!!!

it's to the far right....it may not be directly beside the 1, but it's the last icon on the display.
