Do you mean the light that comes on when you actually go into VTEC?

The "i-VTEC" logo to the right of the speedo is on all the time unless you turn the VTEC indicator off in the menus.

When you go above 5,400 rpm a little red LED lights up underneath it to show you're "in VTEC."

Thank you for this thread. Driving home last night i thought my instrument dash looked different, then i realised the vetec light wasn’t coming on, Then i convinced myself it didn’t have a light, and i kept going back and forth between, im sure it has one, to no it doesn’t. So I’d boot it, then im not sure if i felt the vtec kick in or not, am i imagining things etc. So i topped it up with oil this morning just to be sure, still not sure what’s what on the way to work.
Then found this thread, And just went outside to play with the settings, and sure enough it was turned off. Don’t know how it happened but it's all good again now.

Wow. You guys just made my EP3 feel antiquated and long in the tooth.

It's going to go have a mid-life crisis now....
