Truck DPF light flashing indicates a fault in the truck's exhaust system. Here is some extended information: 1. DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) is a particulate filter, usually installed in the exhaust system of a truck's diesel engine. The diesel particulate filter can effectively reduce the emission of harmful particles in vehicle exhaust, purifying the environment and saving energy. 2. The DPF has three working states: automatic regeneration, manual regeneration, and on-demand regeneration. When the DPF is in automatic regeneration state, its color is green. When the DPF is in manual regeneration state, its color is yellow. On-demand regeneration can be manually activated by pressing the DPF button for 3-5 seconds, which is quite flexible.

What are the self-repair methods for a car display screen showing white screen?

For hardware issues, the only solution is to take it to a 4S shop or a repair shop for servicing. For software issues, check whether the software has been upgraded or if the white screen is caused by the version. Of course, it could also be due to aging power signal cables, which you can try replacing. If the black screen issue is resolved, it indicates that the power signal cables were indeed the problem.
