How to Turn On Lights in Farming Simulator 22 on Xbox: 1 Minute to Mastering In-Game Lighting

In Farming Simulator 22 on Xbox, proper lighting can make a significant difference—whether you’re harvesting late at night or parking your tractor after a long day. To turn on the lights in your vehicle or machinery, you’ll need to use the controller’s mapped buttons. Here’s a quick breakdown:

1. To turn ON the basic lights: Press the RB (Right Bumper) + Y button.
2. For a higher light mode or to cycle through lighting modes: Tap the RB + Y combo multiple times. The game cycles through low beams, high beams, and work lights.
3. To turn all lights OFF: Continue cycling until the lights go off, or leave the vehicle—it auto turns off.

This function helps you keep working through the night or improve visibility on cloudy days. Good use of lighting improves not only your gameplay experience but also the safety and logistics of your virtual farm.

As a designer, I often think about the importance of light—both for mood and function. Just as a well-illuminated living space transforms how you interact with a room, clever use of lighting in FS22 shapes your farming workflow and even your sense of immersion. For those inspired to experiment with spatial arrangements or tractor storage in your farm buildings, exploring advanced visualization tools like a room planner can enhance layout decisions in both virtual and real-world settings.

Tips 1:

If you’re working with multiple vehicles or during longer play sessions, set reminders to cycle between standard and work lights. This not only helps in navigation but also ensures you make the best use of your in-game resources and battery.
