Headlights set to come on with wipers? Maybe dash light dimmer set all the way down?

Yep, normal operation. Since “headlights on” is a common thing to require in the rain, they made it automatic for you.

There is an option in the settings for headlights to turn on with the wipers. When they come on, this sets the dash lighting so it is at the night setting and controlled by the intensity dial. This makes the dash go dim, since very few people have the dash lights turned to maximum brightness at night. Since the DRL's are on all the time, I turned this option off.

It’s both. Just like when your dash lights dim when your headlights turn on, it’s the same thing here because your headlights are turning on.

You can always adjust the dash light brightness, but it will apply to any situation where the headlights turn on.

Dash lights and wipers are playing just how they should be.
