How to restart the Skoda central control screen?
2 Answers
You can first turn off the vehicle, wait for a short while, and then restart it. Alternatively, locate the power button on the central control to restart it. You can also check if there are any loose connections in the wiring. If the central control screen remains black, it could also be a power signal failure. Then, inspect the power signal cable, as it is prone to aging. Replacing it usually resolves power signal issues.
I recently noticed that the infotainment screen in my Škoda often freezes, and found that rebooting it works quite well. The operation is very simple: locate the power button next to the screen, press and hold it with your finger for about ten seconds. The screen will gradually turn black and then automatically reboot, just like restarting a phone. If this method doesn't work, try accessing the settings menu—some models have a 'System Reboot' option. If it functions normally after rebooting, then it's fine. But if issues persist, it might be due to outdated software or minor hardware glitches. In such cases, it's advisable to visit a Škoda dealership for a system update or inspection. To prevent freezes, try not to overload the system—for example, clear some apps before driving.
