Default Black screen & fuse box

Hello,

I have a 2015 C7 Z06,
My infotainment screen is going black sometimes,
I'd like to play with the fuse and see if it can fix the issue, before going to my (expensive) dealer.

Do you know which fuse handle the infotainment screen ?
Is it in the engine or passenger fuse box ?
I can't find a fuse map on internet like for my old C6

Thanks !
Olivier

Fuses just don't work sometimes.

Mine was doing this and I found that the connectors to the module in the drivers side kick panels were loose, seems that I sometimes bumped them with my toe when it is resting on the metal floor pad. I plugged them in tightly and zip tied them and watch where I place my foot.

Glad I found this post! My 2017 Grand Sport M7 screen went black, and sure enough, wiggled wires/plugs behind OBD2 connecter, and VOILA! Fixed!

Same thing happened to me, details here: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...post1600905519 I was about two clicks away from ordering a replacement HMI unit and found out it was nothing more then a loose wire

For future reference this is the location of the unit -

Check the bundles of wires labeled #4 in the diagram - as noted they are close to the dead pedal.
