Touch screen not sensing touch

My 2015 LTZ is not sensing touch on the bottom half of the screen most of the time. The top usually works along with the very bottom row. Anyone know what the fix will probably be? I'm out of warranty.

There is likely a problem with the digitizer, cables, or the touch controller. Usually the screen and digitizer are in one unit, but can sometimes be ordered separately if they're not fused together. They may even have the controller in the same unit. Not sure if they are here or not. Getting a new "screen" (with digitizer) may fix the issue if the screen has all of the items integrated. Otherwise you may replace one thing and find out it's actually something else. I'm not sure if the controller is housed with the screen or is on the HMI. Hopefully in the screen assembly.

 

Looks like you may be able to get a screen assembly for around $350 on eBay if you're out of warranty.

 

You may want to check with the MVI guys, they may know the specifics as to how this system is laid out, and may even have some extras laying around they could sell.

Thanks for the post, I didn't think of MVI. I'll message them to see what they recommend. I may pull it out and at least reseat any connectors that I can find.

Does anyone know if a new screen will requires any programming to work with my HMI?

 

I can't find a breakdown of the difference between different screens. I'm going to look to be sure this weekend but I think my part number is 23383728.

I would guess there's no programming required. That's just a guess though. I'd just make sure to get the right part number.

 

That said, as someone just above mentioned, I would check and see what the dealer says before throwing parts at it. Although, if they charge a hefty "diagnostic" fee, this would probably be the first thing I replaced.

 

Good luck!

Does it work better first thing in morning, when its cold? Does it work better after it has been on for an hour?

It used to work randomly. Now, it is consistent and only works on the top half and along the very bottom.

My touch screen went crazy at about 60K miles, the dealer replaced the touch screen and the HMI and it worked perfectly until recently, now I have the same problem again! The dealer stated that the new screen had a 12 month or 12K mile warranty, of course I'm out of warranty again. The last repair was over $1,000.00.

I have a 2015 silverado LT and my screen does not respond to touch at all. I bought another one off of ebay and still have the same issue. I saw HMI mentioned on here. What is that and does it affect the screen? And who are the MIV guys?

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I had skimmed through that article when you posted the link and honestly I felt rather defeated in a sense and realized that all these years in changing oil that in fact putting in what I was told was a good quality oil was probably not filtered as well as it should be although the filter put on the engine would be what ( as long as it never went into bypass mode ) would be the final filtering of the new oil that the engine components would first see, but then the filtering media itself is not up to par to what is ideal because a full flow filter would be too restrictive to filter fine enough for the engines best outcome in the long run. Only one of our tractors over the years which was a Versatile with a 855 Cummins had a separate bypass filter, some engine manufacturers did spec a partial bypass system within the main oil filter but I don't believe any other trucks or equipment I was servicing used such a filter. No doubt a product like the Amsoil bypass system is of benefit as long as nothing goes sideways with the extra plumbing and filter such as a rupture/leak that could cause the oil to pump out of the engine ( yes that Versatile had a remote canister with hoses routed to it as well ). With the idiot egr system on a diesel and as a result forcing a lot more soot into the oil, that certainly isn't helping the diesel engines cause or as you pointed out the GDI engine issue with creating more soot and aside from having a fancy secondary filtering system, changing the oil more often helping lower the total soot load.     So oil manufacturing and the end product is not something one can control and I wonder if there are specs on what various oil packaging companies produce in particle count or size. As to the filtering, if the OEM is not designing a filter size and spec that is really what it could be, they too are short changing the end user and so what is the answer. Of course as you say the oil side can only do so much if the air side isn't keeping up its end of the picture and air filters are only so efficient and if in a dusty environment such as farm or construction or driving gravel roads there is a lot of dirt to filter out and some of that ends up into the air stream.    Of course the irony in places like where I am where they dump the salt on the highways but also will mix in some calcium or outright pure calcium for problem road area's, or using calcium as dust control on gravel roads, the vehicle that gets used in that environment may rust out before a properly engineered engine and maintenance finally wears out so one has to face that reality in the rust belt.

      Has anyone run these on their 2500?

      Oil Change

      By Erfar · Posted

      have you stuck with dealer oil changes since then? I made the same switch after getting tired of crawling around under the truck, but I’ve found some dealers are way better than others about getting you in quickly. Curious if yours has been good about scheduling or if you’ve had to look elsewhere for quicker turnaround.

      Can anyone decode a VIN to determine if this truck has had emissions issues or a recall?

      By cherryred21duramax · Posted

      Thank you.   I am set on a 3.0 Duramax as my previous truck with a Ford Ecoboost had just as many, if not more, "common" issues.  Cam phasers, timing chain issues, 10-speed valve body and CDF drum, emissions issues, etc.  So I figured, why not get 2x the fuel mileage (these things got 27+mpg on every mixed city/highway test drive I put them through) and better towing capability with resale value to boot?   My minimum, shortest trip will be 50 miles 1-way and I regularly go out of state with a travel trailer.  I'm planning on using this for a marketing/event promotion business also, which would require regular towing of trailers for bands, DJs, sound and lighting gear, along with my personal camera gear for filming events.   Looked at other trucks in the $30k+ price range but the issues seem to be everywhere, plus too many with gaudy mods.  I'm literally sticking with RWD trucks because they tend to be actually used as trucks, vs. the 4x4 models I've seen with unsafe lifts, huge tires, and general mods that would affect reliability (I'm wondering if some of them were tuned, hence the aggressive throttle response and hard shifting).   So my goal is to find a stock, 3.0 with 1 or 2 owners, in good physical condition, and decently well maintained.  Can't seem to find that up here, everything in the $27-30k range has had multiple owners, smoke smell, issues, or body damage.  Or the ridiculously modified trucks with 80k miles for under $27k but lots of problems...

      That’s pretty tough Grumpy. I reread the previous few posts. They all reference oil changes. Much like your last thread. In my humble opinion it keeps things interesting.
