Why Did the Central Control Screen of a Geely Car Suddenly Go Dark?

[LaMason]

The reasons for the sudden blackout of the central control screen in a Geely car are poor line contact and prolonged screen usage. Poor line contact: It is necessary to promptly check whether there is a loose connection in the wiring. If there is, it will naturally cause the central control screen to go black. In this case, simply reconnect the loose part properly. Of course, it could also be due to aging of the power signal line. You can try replacing it with a new one. If the black screen issue is resolved, it confirms that the problem indeed lies with the power signal line. Prolonged screen usage: This can cause the power supply module to malfunction, leading not only to lag but also to the black screen phenomenon observed today.

Oh dear, my Geely's center console suddenly went black, which I think is quite a common issue. Most likely it's a blown fuse—the fuse box in Geely models is located under the steering wheel. Just open it up and check if the fuse corresponding to the center console has blown, then replace it. Another possibility is that the screen has frozen; try turning off the ignition and restarting the car—sometimes the system just needs a reboot to recover. Poor wiring connections could also be the culprit, like a loose plug or corrosion due to moisture, which often happens on bumpy roads. Overall, Geely's center consoles are reliable, but aging electronic modules can increase the failure rate. If none of the buttons respond, you should also check the power system to see if the battery voltage is too low, affecting the display function. When driving, it's best not to ignore minor issues to avoid affecting air conditioning control or navigation usage—it's safer to get a quick check-up at the repair shop first.

I've been driving this Geely car for several years, and the center console light has gone out a few times. The main reasons usually come down to three points: blown fuses are the most common issue. In Geely's design, the fuse location is easy to access, and most of the time, it burns out due to excessive current—promptly check and replace it. Wiring faults, such as short circuits or broken circuits, can also cause power loss, often due to rodents chewing wires or aging—Geely's chassis wiring requires attention to corrosion prevention. Lastly, control unit malfunctions, like module overheating or software crashes, can cause the screen to go black. When driving, be cautious if the center console isn't lighting up—don't force it to keep running, as you might miss important warning signals. Stop as soon as possible and try a reset or warm-up operation. If that doesn’t work, have a technician inspect the electrical system details. Geely service centers usually handle such issues quickly.

The center console of the Geely car is not lighting up, and I suspect it's mostly caused by an electronic malfunction. It could be a screen module failure, which tends to crash in hot weather; or an unstable power supply system, such as abnormal alternator output. A short circuit in the wiring can also cause an instant power outage. The wiring harness of the Geely car's center console is simple but requires attention to waterproofing. Modern cars rely on software, and system bugs leading to display failures are not uncommon. Solution: Restart the car to see if it recovers; if not, seek professional diagnosis.
