I was dusting my dash and my display went blank. My towel had some static and shocked the display. The display lights up red, but none of the functions light up. Is this tepmerary or did I break something? :Eyecrazy:

an excuse to speed ! brilliant !

Not that display. It's the center one for the audio and ac stuff.

Weird - maybe there is a fuse you could pull, but I left my book at work.

Static electricity can't generate enough current to blow a fuse.....however it does generate thousands of volts, which will easily destroy a microchip.

This is the first time I've heard of this happening and I'm amazed it did......however I think the display is toast, unfortunately.

To the dealer with you for a warranty repair......:)

If your warranty has expired, there just happens to be one on eBay for $5 right now

I am going to take it in today. A warning to the rest of you: Make sure your car is off while dusting the dash with a microfiber towel!!! :cwm27:

My dash has also been F'ed up lately. Sometimes it won't light up for 5 mins after i've been driving. Or when it does light up right away, everything is lit up at once or completely scrambled and randomly blinks. The radio and cd controls still work fine, but the dash just doesn't want to cooperate. It's been a good week since i've seen the temp. reading.

I am bringing it in on Tuesday. I will let you know what they say.

Have you taken your RX in yet? What did they say?

Any update?

They SHOULD be replacing it under warranty...
