Here are some methods for breaking in a new car: 1. Tip one: The first thing to pay attention to is driving too "aggressively", which refers to slamming the accelerator. Many new car owners nowadays are young people who drive more casually and often floor the accelerator to experience the so-called "sense of acceleration". However, such actions are very harmful to a new car. 2. Tip two: Try not to let the new car run long distances. Long-distance driving can cause the engine to overheat, accelerating the degradation of the oil's performance. Prolonged operation can also cause wear on the engine and transmission gears. 3. Tip three: When breaking in the braking system, it's best to keep the vehicle at a low speed and then gently press the brake pedal to allow the brake pads and brake discs to fully contact and rub against each other, removing surface impurities, rust, etc.

Restart the screen by turning the ignition on and off. At this point, simply reconnect any loose connections properly. You can try replacing it with a new one. If the black screen issue is resolved, it indicates that there is indeed a problem with the power signal cable. It could also be due to a defect in the circuit design, requiring inspection, repair, or direct replacement at a repair shop.
