• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

my infotainment panel has gone blank twice now. it comes back on after it sits for a while then turned back on but it's completely dead...no radio, back up camera, clock or anything!
took it to the dealer and of course it was working when i dropped it off and after an hour they came back with no reason for it. it's now an open case with KIA.

has anyone else had this problem of the monitor going blank?

Just push your reset button with a pin or pen tip if it ever happens again and you should be good.

happened to me a couple of times before the unit went completely dead. Dealership had to order a new unit and replaced it

This just happened to me. Is this a common issue? My car is less than 1 year old and I'm not happy with this. Do I need to reset everytime this happens?
 
You’re the 5th reply to this thread; so I’m gonna say this isn’t a common issue.
 
Mine just happened about an hour ago and wont come back on

Even when you press the reset button?

This just happened to my KIA as well. Where is the reset button?

Fortunately, a picture showing exactly where it is located was posted earlier in this thread.
