Volkswagen dashboard data loss requires adjusting the buttons on the right side of the multifunction steering wheel or the right combination switch. How to Restore Lost Volkswagen Dashboard Data: Some models require long-pressing the reset button on the dashboard to retrieve and switch back the car's dashboard data. After long-pressing, the dashboard display will change. Introduction to the Car Dashboard: The car dashboard can reflect the working conditions of various systems in the car. It typically includes indicators such as the fuel light, door light, front and rear fog light indicators, etc. Cars are equipped with a speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure gauge, fuel gauge, etc. The speedometer consists of a speed meter and an odometer. Traditional speedometers are mechanical and are widely used in various car models.
Last time my Volkswagen Tiguan's dashboard suddenly went black, even the mileage disappeared. I've figured this out: Step one, don't rush to replace parts. First, disconnect the negative battery cable for ten minutes and then reconnect it, which is equivalent to rebooting the car's system. If you're lucky, the data will come back—that's how I fixed it that time. If that doesn't work, you need to check three things: see if the battery terminals are corroded or loose, feel if the fuse corresponding to the dashboard in the fuse box is overheating, and if that still doesn't help, you'll need to connect a diagnostic tool to check the fault codes. A special reminder: never cut power while driving, otherwise the ABS might fail. To be safe, it's better to drive to a repair shop and use professional equipment for inspection.
