This is a 2006 Jetta 5 speed. It has the MFD+ display. The car has been parked the last 2 weeks due to snow, today the roads were clear & it got driven to work.
30 minutes into the drive the display flickered a bit, and then just faded away. The two lines at top and bottom remained. Stopped at a light I noticed the "pulsed" a little bit. When I got to work I powered off the car, and then turned it back on. I still had the two lines, but nothing else. Tried it again at lunch thinking maybe as the car thawed on the drive in something got wet, and shorted something out. The display is now totally blank.
Before I take this to the dealer my question is, is this something simple to fix?
I looked in the manual, but saw no mention of fuses for it.
Anyone ever heard of this before?
Any advice would be appreciated. I really love this car. The biggest downside is the nearest dealer is 50 minutes away.
