    HELP! Instrument Cluster Failure - Driver Information Display

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    While driving home last night the display went black. I tried searching the forums to see if anyone else had experienced but nothing concrete. Tried holding down the reset button etc. to see if I turned it off by mistake (if thats even possible). Is permanently black. Anybody know how to troubleshoot this issue?

    There was a thread about within the last couple of months I believe. I think one person said they had to get it replaced, might not be your case though.

    I see you have a 2010. Why do these things happen when car is out of warranty???!

    Doesn't ring a bell. Do you have any way to check for codes?

    I had this happen but the screen was white. Had it replaced under warranty. If you look in panjo there's someone selling one out of a 2014 for $300. Might want to snatch that up as the dealership will charge beyond that.

    Update for anyone who experiences the same - The screen is now intermittent. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it flickers on and off and sometimes it just flashes a bit.

    Still researching and looking for a repair shop
