Default Blank Info screen

Hi
Drove my 16 Z51 3LT to the local store and was listening to music thru the on board radio. Shut the car off and when I came back out I had no info on my infotainment screen. I am not getting the front or rear camera's either. I know this has been a problem for some and tried to find the thread thru the search section but nothing has come up. Anybody had this issue and found out what the problem was and maybe the cure. I only have 8500 miles on the car and haven't had any issues until this. Thx in advance.

Mine did that once and recovered the next time I started my car. Have you driven it again since it failed? Perhaps disconnected the battery for a couple of minutes and recovered to reboot the electronics?

Happens, off and on, just shut it down, restart, usually pops right back up.... also, make sure you have the brightness turned all the way up on your dash lighting.... that can sometimes cause problems as the ambient light will register to the sensor to dim the dash lighting....

Thx for the info. I did park the car for awhile and when I started it back up the screen came back on. Like I stated before this has been my only issue with the car. All else is great. Thx again
