The reasons why the central instrument panel of Volkswagen Tiguan L is not displaying: Line fault: caused by a fault in the instrument panel circuit. Poor contact: poor contact or short circuit. It is best to go to a repair shop for inspection. Instrument panel: The instrument panels of different cars vary. However, the conventional instruments of general cars include speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure gauge, water temperature gauge, fuel gauge, charging gauge, etc. Indicator lights: Various indicator lights or warning lights are made under the mask of the instrument panel, such as coolant level warning light, fuel level indicator, washer fluid level indicator, charging indicator, high/low beam indicator, transmission gear indicator, anti-lock braking system (ABS) indicator, traction control indicator, airbag (SRS) warning light, etc.
Last year when I was driving my Volkswagen Tiguan L, I also encountered the central instrument cluster going black, which really freaked me out. Looking back, it might have been a blown fuse (a common cause), located in the fuse box under the front passenger footwell; or maybe a loose or corroded wiring connector; an instrument module failure isn’t out of the question either. I tried rebooting it myself by disconnecting the power: turning off the engine, removing the negative battery terminal for ten minutes before reconnecting, which occasionally worked, but a long-term fix requires inspection. Volkswagen cars often have minor electrical system issues, so getting it checked at the dealership is the safest bet—they can use diagnostic tools to determine if it’s a gateway control issue. Also, during regular maintenance, cleaning the connectors to prevent corrosion helps avoid safety risks, as not being able to see driving info is quite dangerous.
