So I have the same issue. Had my radio replaced and still no luck. Funny thing, when it goes black or really dark, if you turn the headlight off auto and back on the display comes back most of the time

Tried it and it works like magic, but every month doing it almost 20 times is irritating, have you got it completely fixed? 

Or this is the 'only' solution....

We are having the same issue with our 2019 z71. This has happened probably 5 times already. Sometimes turning the truck off and back on fixes it but now it’s not coming on at all. Completely black screen so no touch screen functions working.

Sounds like this is an issue GM/Chevy has known about for many years Impacting many models.  I have a 2016 Silverado w 21K miles! It’s a third vehicle so I don’t drive it often. Black screen, it’s now a brick. Seems that mileage has nothing to do w it though. I knew I shouldn’t have went back to Chevy.

Welcome to the site.

 

Unfortunately you have a different system than the posters with the new 19 1500 body styles. You have the same as the 14-18 1500's.

The 2020 will have the updated informant system in them.

 

I would take it in under warranty and see what's up, pretty common problem.

My 2019 1500 Custom did this for the first time this morning on the way to work, radio continued to play, screen was just black. Went out at lunch and turned the key and it lit up like normal. This truck has less than 2,500 miles on it. I hope GM is looking into this.

I have the same truck and it has 8,000 miles now (bought at 7,000) it does this to me randomly. Most of the time when it happens it will be right when I turn the car on and the screen will just stay black. No music or anything and no button presses will turn it on. Sometimes it will randomly turn on after a few minutes, other times it will stay off. Turning the car off and on does nothing. The only thing that seems to work is turning the car off, getting out, locking it and waiting 10 or so minutes. It's a huge inconvenience if I don't have time to do so because I'm just driving with a black screen. I've had it stay black for 40+ minute drives. I also occasionally hear random clicking seeming to come from behind the infotainment system.

Just posted about this in another thread. My 2019 Custom has 4700 miles, this just happened to me last week. Shutting off/restarting the truck didn't work, turning Auto headlamps off & on didn't work, the only thing that worked was reseating fuse F41. I have an oil change coming up and I'll ask about software updates, although I don't think there are any available yet.

There’s a software update for the frozen screen. I just had it done to mine. However, my screen is still getting stuck in night mode 90% of the time I start it up.

The solution they have is an update. Didn’t work for me as my screen went black on me again this morning. I’ve had it replaced and every update known to man. No fix

I'm having the same issue with my 2019 Chevy Silverado crew cab custom 4x4 truck. I'll be driving down the road and the radio screen goes black, the back up camera will still work and sometimes either the radio or pandora driving or sitting still ot will happen. I went to the dealer and they said if it's under warranty no problem,  but if not they want $130.00 for an hour to find the problem. That's a no can do for me, it should be no charge my wife and I have a 8 year bumper to bumper warranty plus we just purchased the truck on June 30th.

I have had issues with the blank screens or wrong info on the screen. I have video of My clock going backwards up to 20 min at a time or only move in 2 minute intervals forwards. I’ve taken this to my case manager and told we will look into it.. never hear back.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Thanks - I wasn't quite caffeinated this morning. 2:1 makes sense, turning the crankshaft 360 degrees will turn the cam 180 degrees, and had I done that, the cam's dot would be at 6 and the crank's at 12 again.   I went ahead and took the sprocket off anyway, aligned everything dot-to-dot including the balance shaft just for s&g. I'm glad I did because I discovered no Loctite on the timing sprocket bolts. Maybe it's not required, but at only 20 ft-lb torque spec, those bolts aren't in there very tight. Cleaned and reassembled with some thread locker and torqued.   A general observation: Less is more with RTV. If a little doesn't stop a leak, a LOT probably won't, either. RTV is thinly veiled revenge, in a tube...

      The timing marks are ok, that is #1, you can turn it over until they line up and it won't change anything, the crankshaft turns twice for every camshaft revolution, I have always set up SB Chevs as your pic shows using a straight edge

      Someone's been here before.... There is a receipt for a 3-piece timing set, purchased earlier this year.   Is this picture something, or, nothing?   I have the timing cover off and my crank is perfectly TDC and the keyed gear's locating mark is dead on 12 o'clock.   The cam gear locating mark is also at 12 o'clock. Now, I'm not an expert, but all the install guides say the two locating marks should meet and be perfectly aligned when installing a timing set. The mark on the crank should be dead on 12:00 and the cam gear's mark should be dead on 6:00, and both marks should be perfectly vertically aligned.   I believe the timing gear is keyed or has a dowel that ensures it can only be installed on the cam in one position, so I have to believe the cam is out of phase somehow. At the very least, with a triangular bolt pattern, it can only be installed in one of 3 different positions.   Before I pulled the front cover, the truck was running alright, no service engine soon lights except an occasional P0172 / rich condition. Timing -16 timing at idle (should be +16), and total -35% fuel trim, two conditions I haven't been able to figure out.   In related news, my injector tested pretty well, wasn't leaking, but I had it rebuilt anyway, and it's on it's way back to me.         Along with this discovery, the good and bad:   Good: The oil pan seal appears undamaged.   Bad: -The timing cover has been reused, and the positioning dowels have been broken. That could explain some of the leaking. -Some kind of white paste or grease was used to try to seal the oil pan seal and timing cover (since wiped off..). -Then, someone globbed silicone all over the front of the cover and also buried the ckp sensor in it. But, they didn't put any inside the cover or use RTV to try to seal the oil pan seal with the timing cover (good).

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.

      It also depends on what criteria someone is using for “best” when talking filters.  Are we going off best efficiency?   Best quality/QC?  Etc. because the two may not mutually exclusive.
