Blank MCU, indicating eMMC failure but EVERYTHING works?!

[Eddyme]

Hi,

Yesterday my car turned on as usual but the MCU display never came on, after a few reboots I figured the infamous eMMC issue had finally found its way to my car. After reading a bit on this forum I found some normal symptoms that indicates a eMMC failure, for instance the mph instead of km/h or failure to connect to phone app etc. The weird thing is that in my case everything works, I can supercharge, I can listen to music through voice command (though the MCU reboots every 5 min or so) and I can even use the touch function as long as I remember where the buttons are placed. Has anyone experienced the same thing? Can it really be a eMMC failure with just the display going dark, or might this be something totally different? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Yup. It’s an eMCC failure.
You should do the Infotainment Ugrade Package to fix it and it’s awesome.

Thanks for the reply. Has there been any confirmed vases of eMCC failure without any other symptoms? Its just the blank screen, even the touch function works..

If you shine a bright light on the screen can you see the image? (Maybe just the backlight, or backlight control, failed.)

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortanately it didn't work. The passenger airbarg is on message has moved permanently to the other display and it seems to me that the car knows the MCU is not displaying and are moving all essential (mandatory) indicators to the other display and tries to reboot every 5 minutes or so...
