Where to Repair Car Display Screen?

[MacCayden]

If the car display screen is damaged, it needs to be repaired at a repair shop or a 4S shop. More information about car display screens is as follows: Overview: The car display screen is installed in the car and is a special display for cars. Usually, the car display is installed on the headrest of the seat, so it is called a headrest display. Others: The car display screen is an important part of the car audio-visual system. Its function is equivalent to the color TV in a home theater. It can receive car audio-visual signals and play them back on the display. At the same time, it is a display that can be used on similar moving vehicles, making it convenient for use while the car is in motion.

Last month, my car's screen suddenly started flickering with snowflakes, which was a real headache. I went straight to a repair shop recommended by a friend. The mechanic plugged in a diagnostic computer and after a long check, said the main unit module was faulty. Ended up replacing it with a used part for just 800 yuan, more than half cheaper than the dealership's quote. Actually, with such electronic issues, don't rush to replace the whole assembly—it might just be a blown fuse or a loose cable. If the touchscreen stops responding, try buying a tempered glass screen protector from Taobao for fifty yuan; it might just fix the problem. But if the screen goes completely black with no response, it's likely a motherboard issue, and you'll need to find a specialized auto electronics repair shop. Remember to back up your navigation data—last time I reinstalled the system, all my saved locations were gone.

A malfunctioning car screen is indeed frustrating, and we seasoned drivers have all been there. Last year, my center console touchscreen failed, and the 4S dealership quoted 4,000 yuan for a full unit replacement. Later, I found an experienced auto electronics specialist at an auto parts market who discovered it was just oxidized touchscreen ribbon cables—fixed for 200 yuan. Most repair shops can handle such issues now, but check if they have specialized diagnostic tools. If still under warranty, head straight to the 4S store; if not, compare quotes from multiple shops. Android-based infotainment systems can also be flashed to resolve lag, but avoid tinkering with OEM screens—they’re prone to bricking. Before repairs, snap photos of the original interface to prevent post-repair function mismatches.

Fixing a car's infotainment screen depends on the symptoms. My car had a black screen with backlight still on, and the mechanic diagnosed it as a blown capacitor on the motherboard. The repair shop charged 400 yuan to solder the components, and it worked again. For display abnormalities, try a factory reset first—many freeze issues can be resolved this way. For aftermarket screens, start by checking the protocol box; my friend's retrofit screen had flickering due to poor contact in the protocol box. For OEM screens, it's best to visit brand-authorized repair shops with original diagnostic tools. While roadside shops may be cheaper, they might worsen the issue, especially for models with surround-view cameras—improper calibration can compromise parking safety. In emergencies, using a phone for navigation is the most reliable solution.
