What Causes the Golf Display Screen to Go Black?
2 Answers
Golf display screen blackout may be caused by issues with the vehicle's power supply voltage. Here are detailed explanations and solutions: Vehicle power supply voltage issues: The solution is to first investigate the stability of the vehicle's power supply voltage to rule out the possibility of voltage fluctuations. Car navigation cable problems: The solution is if the voltage is stable, then check the cables on the back of the device for any issues, which can be resolved by replacing the connections. If there are no contact issues, inspect the display cable of the device; if problems are found, replace it with a new one for testing.
I previously encountered a situation where my Golf's display went black. The most common cause is power supply issues, such as a blown fuse or poor wiring contact, leading to unstable power supply in the car that prevents the display from starting up. First, check the fuse box, locate the corresponding position to see if any fuse is blown, and try replacing it with a new one. If that doesn't work, it might be that the display's connector is loose or oxidized. Open up the central control section and gently unplug and replug the interface. Additionally, software malfunctions often occur, especially during system updates or crashes. After parking, turn off the engine, wait a few minutes, and then restart to see if it recovers. If these simple methods don't work, it's likely that the control module is damaged and requires professional diagnostic tools for repair. Remember, don't let the problem drag on, as driving without a display to see speed warnings is very dangerous. It's recommended to regularly check the electronic systems during routine maintenance and avoid unauthorized modifications to prevent short circuits.
