The restart method when the central control screen is not lit is: simply restart the engine to reboot the screen. The central control screen is an LCD display located in the middle of the dashboard, capable of displaying basic information such as time, temperature, date, and audio. It serves as the information display device for the multimedia control system, electronic navigation system, and reverse assist system. Methods to remove scratches from the car's central control screen include: 1. Use a soft pencil eraser to gently rub along the direction of the scratch until it completely disappears; 2. Mix household white vinegar and distilled water in a 1:1 ratio, fold a soft cotton cloth, dip it into the vinegar solution, and gently wipe along the direction of the scratch.
When my central control screen suddenly went black, I started worrying about losing both navigation and music. First, find a safe place to pull over and turn off the engine, then open and close the door to completely power down the infotainment system. Waiting five to ten minutes is crucial—it gives the system time to cool down and reboot. Restart the engine to see if the screen recovers; if not, try holding down the power button or volume knob at the top of the screen for 10 seconds, which works on many modern cars. Remember to check the vehicle manual for reset button combinations—for example, my car requires pressing the HOME button + the FM button. This is usually just a software glitch, not a big deal, but avoid operating it while driving to prevent accidents. Regularly updating the infotainment system software can help avoid such issues.
