Main Instrument Panel Black Screen of Death

[gusone]

Bah! Fired up Satan's Chariot of Death this morning only for the main instrument panel not to. Car drives but without a Speedo it isn't very safe. So called the Porsche breakdown. Disconnected the 12v battery but that did nothing. So drove slowly to Porsche. Remains to be seen if it requires a new instrument panel or is software. But, the reset didn't work.

Bad news. Needs a new instrument panel from Porsche who cannot give a delivery date. Bracing myself for the worst in terms of delay.

You tried the two-finger reset and it didn’t work?

I think that's just for the PCM screen

Fixed! Just collected. Apparently a new instrumentation panel costs £5,500+ VAT. Mental amount for that little glass dashboard. So, don't own a Taycan past the warranty!!!

... So, don't own an EV Taycan past the warranty!!!

Fixed.

New instrumentation cluster. With a clear rubbery sticker that appears to have a perfect circle print. An engineer short cut like the 2 finger salute for the pcm?

That's just a little tab to help you lift the plastic transport protection layer
