Touch Screen Frozen (Touch screen kong)

[Malcolm]

Hi all..

Has anyone experienced this?

According to other forums is quite a common problem especially in our hot weather.

It has happened to me though.

Anyone with experience how how they fixed theirs, kindly share.

Thanks!

Touch screen kong. Models? My screen kong I just go eBay and bought the cheap one.

How did yours kong ?

No Picture at all or touch screen doesnt respond but got picture ?

Mine kong once too..touch screen not working but picture and graphic as usual.... its the ribbon ( 4 lines ) at the lcd screen that broke its connection, so no touch screen input.

What i did was :

Dismantle the ML head unit
Dismantle the LCD Panel from Head Unit
Remove the Ribbon Insulation
Apply " Circuit Writter" to reconnect the broken connection. (apply at all 4 to be safe)
Assemble back and back to normal.

Or

You can get from a Recon Unit from Ebay which cost around USD 400-500 and replace it one to one.

I screwed up trying to fix it up myself.

I spoil the dashboard trying to take the unit out....it was pretty nicely stuck especially the air cond vents...don't believe how easy it looks on youtube...

Then I accidentally yanked out 4 wires from its loom when removing the unit and fried the board trying to figure the sequence.

In the end I sent it to Tom's in Bangsar to mend my wrongs.

Cost me rm2k plus to fix everything up...it could have been a 'mere' rm600+ to replace the touch screen...
