Can anyone give some advice on a problem I have. The console screen, (command centre) suddenly went blank yesterday. I would appreciate any comments about this before taking the vehicle into the Ford dealer son Monday. Everything works ok, but I have no visual, to tell me what temperature the air con is set on etc. The vehicle is 10 years old now & has travelled 90'000kms.

Try holding the radio volume knob in for 5 seconds, you may have turned it off?

Thanks jmma. Yes I tried that. No luck. When it happened I had left the key in the accessory mode with the radio playing for a couple of hours, on a very hot day. Not sure if that had anything to do with it. May have to shout myself an expensive Christmas present. Lol

Disconnecting the battery for a while may work, you might lose Radio settings. Hopefully someone else will be along shortly to help you (o:

Betta AutoParts Even the screens are available if it's the problem
This might. It apply to a newer ford. Mid 90'S fairmont had same problem and it had small bulbs in the rear that had gone. I thought it was modern led but it still needed bulbs for me to actually see the led. I'm assuming part are shared with he falcon. Yours is a lot newer but maybe worth a google.

Happened to one I had a while ago, it came on again after it had been turned off and on, but then would happen often, until it died. Managed to get a second hand unit and all was fine, cant rememebr exactly what it cost but was not to bad. They share the same part as the fairmont, plenty of them around.
