The solutions for the Geely Boyue center console freezing are: 1. Upgrade the system; 2. Turn off the engine and restart the car. Taking the 2021 Geely Boyue as an example, it belongs to the compact SUV category, with body dimensions of: length 4519mm, width 1831mm, height 1694mm, wheelbase 2670mm, fuel tank capacity 58l, and curb weight 1575kg. The 2021 Geely Boyue features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.8l turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 163ps, maximum power of 120kw, and maximum torque of 250nm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
When driving my Boyue, the infotainment system occasionally freezes, with the screen stuck and music/navigation completely unresponsive. The first solution is a soft reboot: press and hold the power button on the center screen for 10-20 seconds until it turns completely black, then release and wait patiently for it to restart automatically. This process clears temporary glitches and resolves most issues. If that doesn't work, try a hard reboot by opening the engine hood, disconnecting the negative battery terminal for one minute, then reconnecting it (wear gloves to avoid electric shock). Note that the clock will need resetting afterward. Regularly manage memory usage—avoid installing too many apps, especially unofficial plugins, as they can congest the system. Park in shaded areas during high temperatures to prevent overheating-induced lag. If frequent freezing occurs, promptly visit a 4S dealership for software updates or hardware checks to avoid travel disruptions.
