Volvo :: Message Center On Dashboard Won't Display Anything
Feb 20, 2007
I have had an S60 since 2001, 2.0 petrol first and then a 2003 D5.
I am having problems with my message center and my indicator. The message center won't display anything. It just a mass of jumbled letter moving about. The indicator lights and sound won't work on the dashboard although they are working fine outside.
The dealer say that a new dashboard is needed, which is very expensive. Any fix to this? a reboot maybe?

I am a new Volvo XC90 owner/fan. The issue is my lovely 2006 XC90 2.5T started to show the bizarre 'No Oil Pressure. Stop Engine.' dash board message red color.
First things I checked right after seeing that message.
Engine oil level - FINE (actually full).
Engine oil - CLEAN and recently replaced.
I drove 100 miles and the weather was peaceful 40f degrees (5c). The sign would come and off intermittently and stayed there for some time. We were luckily at the destination so we stopped the car and did our biz.
After a couple of hours we started the engine, drove a car, came back home driving 100 miles back without an issue.
But after a day, actually today, I saw the same message again. It was intermittently again and then would stay. If I restart the engine the message would go away but then would come back after sometime of driving.
So I called a couple of normal non-Volvo repair shops and they didn't know what the issue is and didn't even know why I would check the engine pressure. So OK pass.
I called Volvo dealer and he said if it is a 'low engine oil' message you can just top it up but if it is a 'engine pressure' message then the issue can be huge so he advised to tow the car in.

My center display (between tach and speedometer) all of sudden went dim. Can barely read any info. Does this have a fuse or do I need to take it in for a check up...

My 04 Message Center is out to get me.
The message center has been acting up. It went out - blank.
When I get in to take it to the dealership, it comes on.
When I get back home, it's dead.
I called the dealership and told them what's going on and they say to bring it in and they will look at it. Gee, if it's working they will say there is no problem. Been there done that on some other issues.

I just bought a Prius v. When I am driving the Prius v on highway, the dashboard display disappear without speed and all the dashboard indicators. It was pretty scary. Brought it to Toyota dealer and they said they cannot replicate the problem. The dashboard display come on and off. Sometimes when I drove through a tunnel, it seems to trigger it. It also happen on bright daylight driving too.

I was poking around the center console and noticed that there seems to be a pretty big gap difference where the console meets the dashboard than I would expect on a Lexus:
So how does it look on yours? Are yours even on both sides?

I'm sure that it comes to no one's surprise here that my clock on my 2001 Accent is not working properly. This seems to be a chronic problem with ALL Hyundais in the 2001-2004 era.
I have acquired a new clock, but I'm looking for some instructions on how to remove the centre dashboard on a 2001 Accent without breaking anything or accidentally disconnecting anything while removing it.
I see there are two screws in the pop out cup holder...once they are out what is the next best and safest procedure to work the dash off all the way to the top so I can replace the clock...and then get it all back together again?

My wife has a 2009 Prius and the center display does not work. At first it was intermittent but now it is off and does not come on at all. We can still control radio & AC through the controls on the steering wheel. I checked the 2 fuses the manual associates with the display(s) and they are both still good.

I am looking to install a new Message Center in my 2003 Excursion XLT. I have checked the vehicle for wiring and everything seems to be in the right places. I have ordered the Ambient Temp Sensor and that will just plug into the harness that is on my vehicle with a factory cap in place at the moment. However when I tried to order the message center, the dealer said it would be best to get the part number off one that is currently in a vehicle.

Every time I hit a bump, even a small one, I get a high-pitched rattle from the center of my dashboard that sounds just like a cricket chirp. I'll bring it up when I visit the dealer for a courtesy check-up, but Was it diagnosed and repaired?

When I turn the cruise control on, a green "cruise" lights up in the center display. When I "set" the cruise so it actually holds my speed; no additional lights come on to indicate the cruise is set. I was wondering if this is normal or should there be one light to indicate the cruise system is on and another when the cruise is set. My Phaeton has the standard cruise and does not adjust for distance.

Near the speedometer and gauge cluster, I've flipped through the menus using the steering wheel controls and one option I see is speed.
I was under the impression I could see my actual speed digitally displayed. But it seems to show in small print my average speed. Is there a way to make it digitally show my speed?

just had the car in to be tinted...drove home, parked...and now the center trip computer display will not turn off. cars off, doors locked...it just stays on.
The guy who did my tint has a VW tatoo and loved the ride...he knew it had a euro switch (not installed by me), and said he had to disconnect the battery while doing the job because the headlights wouldn't go off unless the key was out of the ignition and he needed to roll the windows up and down (obvi).

What does this mean? For the past few months my transmission has been really clunky and just un-smooth and now this. Is it broken?

Our 2008 Prius' center display stopped working last night during our drive home. We are in the middle of a move from Oahu to now Big Island and are in a fairly remote location...
What might have caused this and how to fix it? We can still run AC via steering wheel, however, it's output volume (low or high) can no longer be adjusted. The radio is non functioning now as well.

I have a 2004 Prius and in 2007 my center display ceased to work. I had my local Toyota dealership replace it. Well low and behold it is shot again. There is a picture display but the touch buttons do not work. I called Toyota again to see if the price has come down. Apparently in 2007 when my display was replaced it was replaced with a refurbished one and mine was sent to a company who refurbishes these units. I was told this process no longer exits and I would have to purchase a new unit from Toyota. I haven't done it. I am using the controls on the steering wheel. How to resolve this?

I had the oil change message up for a few days. Each time I started it I'd just hit reset to make the message disappear. Today I got around to changing the oil and now my "Oil Change Required" will not go away.
I've tried holding the buttons (info, reset and setup) for a while, nothing. I tried disconnecting the battery for a few minutes, still there.
The cruise control buttons still work. If I open a door, it tells me it's open then returns to oil message. Just can't clear the message.
I should add, it's a 2012 F150 XLT with a 5.0. No sync system.

I am a new owner of a 2007 LS. Recently got the oil changed. 2 weeks later I get the message on my dashboard that the oil needs to be changed. I looked at the maintenance reminders on the screen and deleted anything about oil changes. But the message will not go away - stays on all the time. What is causing this and how do I get rid of it?

I just recently purchased a used 2011 Camry and I am seeing a maintenance reminder message on my dash. After I complete all of the recommended maintenance items, how do I reset the message?
