Display audio problem

Once?

One day lasy week, I turned on the car, but the centre console did not turn on. I turned the ignition off and turned it on again to find all then normal. Has not repeated.

I will watch for comments with interest.

 

Im sure people will say check this check that... But the easy answer is take it back to the dealer as thats what the warranty is for.

 

This happens all the time to me. Unfortunately, you will find that the dealers will pretend it never happened and therefore tell you the car is operating normally.

I have to pull over, turn the car off, open a door and restart. Not kidding - if I don't open the door before restarting the car it doesn't seem to reset it.

 

The famous Tech II.

"The Tech II isn't showing any errors, sir"

"Your car is operating normally".

 

there is a software update for your (IRC)intergrated radio chassis. go into a dealership olr service centre and ask for it to be reflashed and your problem will go away
theres actually a techline out about the radios having your symptoms so if they say no it doesnt need it then get them to check their techlines....

 

your is the same deal with the radio and needs to ahve the climate control module updated aswell....if your not happy with the service at a dealership you can always go elsewhere for a second opinion.

most workshops will hav open arms to your problems cos they are an easy fix and you dont have to chase problems around the car.

 

I have already had a new HVAC module fitted.

Can you provide a techline number so I can ask the dealer about this specific issue?

Yes, isn't choice wonderful?. In fact, I'm onto my 4th dealership and 17th visit.

 

and how many times have they actually looked at it? if your not satisfied then get onto a holden warranty rep at the plant.
they can take your car and strip it down to nothing and restart allover again. suprised they ahvent by now cos we had a very early VE calais come back in 5 times for one fault that kept changing its symptoms and they took the car from us and stripped it back at the plant, went over everything and found a wire shorting in the b pillar causing the bcm to short out.

dont know why yours hasnt been fixed but i would be making a formal complaint to the head office if i were you cos by the sounds of it your not getting anywhere at a service centre

 

HahahahaHahahahaHahahahaHahahahaHahahaha

Sorry. I'll post again in a little while. I just need to compose myself.

 

What was the fix? My display has died now. I can live without the display in the meantime but it's really frustrating.

 

Hi Everyone,

Mine played up once or twice with not turning on at all. I had it serviced yesterday (45K) at a Holden dealer and told them about the problem, when I picked it up yesterday they told me that they had ordered a new one and they would fit it when it arrived. No questions asked, no hassle. Happy that they didn't poke around, they just decided to get a new one.

 

Mine was doing the same thing a couple of years ago , upon taking it to the dealer they did the same and didn't mess around to much just ordered and fitted a new one. Never had the problem occur again since change out.

 

I fixed my SV6 center display. Pulled the fuse 7 and found it was dirty. Cleaned it and replaced the fuse, all good now.

 

lol more than likey you reset the system by removing the fuse, not that a dirty fuse was the issue.

 

Either way it works now with no issues, so I am happy.
