Why can't the folding screen of Audi A6 come out?
2 Answers
The failure of the Audi A6 folding screen to emerge is due to damage to the electronic actuator of the central control screen. The reasons for damage to automotive electronic actuators are as follows: Improper car washing causing issues: Due to the working environment of the engine, its surface is easily covered with dirt, leading some car owners to prefer washing the engine with water, which is very risky. Among the engine components, some are highly sensitive to water, and washing with water can easily cause failures in electronic sensors and the vehicle's computer. A similar situation occurs during heavy summer rainstorms when vehicles pass through water. Careless wading can result in the engine or electronic components being soaked, leading to short circuits in the electronic component circuits and causing problems in the automotive electronic system. Lack of maintenance leading to faults: Automotive electronics are structurally divided into four main parts: sensors, control units, actuators, and connecting wires/data cables. The normal operation of these four aspects is closely related to automotive electronic faults. These components in automotive electronics are very precise and have high requirements for the usage environment. Currently, a common issue among car owners is the lack of maintenance and inadequate cleaning of electronic components, which has become a significant cause of faults.
As an experienced Audi driver, the folding screen in my A6 often gets stuck, sometimes due to mechanical jams or dirty, rusty rails. High summer temperatures can increase friction, making the screen's extension and retraction less smooth. I've tried gently pushing it manually, which might help it pop out, but avoid using brute force to prevent damaging the motor. Additionally, system software bugs, especially after updates, can cause it to get stuck, and restarting the car's computer often resolves the issue. If the battery voltage is unstable or a fuse is blown, the control module might not get enough power, naturally preventing the screen from moving. It's recommended to regularly clean dust from the rails and check the car's electrical system. For serious issues, a visit to the 4S shop for repairs should do the trick.
