How to Restore a Frozen Center Control Screen in the Boyue?
3 Answers
In the event of a frozen center control screen in the Geely Boyue, the issue can be resolved by flashing or upgrading the system. Below is an introduction to the Boyue's center control screen: 1. Functions: Multimedia area, vehicle navigation, audio adjustment, air conditioning control buttons, vehicle dashboard, air vents, engine start button, cigarette lighter, USB interface, and other features. 2. Configuration: Equipped with an AQS air quality sensor to monitor external air quality in real-time, an in-car air purifier, and for automatic transmission models, rear air outlet airflow adjustment.
When I drove the Boyue before, the central control screen also froze. A simple solution is to turn off the engine, wait for about half a minute, and then restart it—often the screen will recover. If that doesn’t work, press and hold the power button on the central control screen for about 10 to 15 seconds to force a system reboot, which usually resolves temporary software glitches. Don’t rush to repair it immediately; first, check the vehicle manual for specific reboot instructions, as different Boyue models may vary slightly. I recommend developing a habit of regularly updating the software via the car’s system, as many freezing issues are caused by system bugs. If the screen freezes while driving, don’t panic—pull over safely before handling it. Safety comes first. Remember, if none of these methods work, it might be due to hardware damage or a blown fuse, requiring professional attention at a 4S shop, as electrical issues can be complex. I also make it a habit to clean dust around the central control area regularly to prevent buildup from affecting heat dissipation.
When the central control screen freezes, the biggest concern is driving safety. I usually pull over immediately, turn off the engine to rest for a while, and then restart to try again. This method is simple and effective because a reboot allows the system to perform self-checks. For the Boyue model, sometimes holding the power button for more than 10 seconds to force a restart can activate the screen. Additionally, check if any fuses in the fuse box are blown—usually located under the driver's seat—but avoid handling unfamiliar circuits yourself. It's recommended to keep the central control software up to date while driving by regularly using official updates to prevent common malfunctions. If the issue persists, it might be due to loose wiring or aging hardware, so it's best to visit an authorized Geely service center for inspection. Minimize the use of high-energy apps like navigation and music running simultaneously to avoid overloading the system. Simple maintenance, such as cleaning dust off the screen, can also help.
