Touchscreen stopped working!!
« on: 15 January 2014, 08:38 »
Hi
is there a way to reset my standard head unit on my golf GTD, I got in it this morning and the touchscreen isn't working. It seems stuck on the proximity sensor :(

Either way, the proximity sensor screen should automatically go away once you've got up to around 15-20 km/h?

Did an ignition cycle help?

Hi When I hade a lock up on my Mk6 I held the on/off down until the head unit did a reboot. It seemed to work for me.
