Car computer will not turn itself on/off
« on: 22 March 2010, 13:17:48 »
Hi :)

My cars computer isn't starting the display when I start the car. It's not totally off, but just shows a gleam of light and no text or info. This happened a day ago when I started the car and no info on the display. Then it wouldn't turn off again when I turned the car off either. Had to get the fuse out before it turned off. It's very humid/wet outside here in Norway at the moment. Could that be the reason? :-/

Sounds like a poor connection, but no idea where I`m afraid

Not sure what the problem is, but check the connecters at the back of the MID if ok then I would rip the MID out (10 min job) and give it a good drying out in doors for a couple of days, could be moisture / condensation.

Car will run fine with no MID display installed.  :y
