I have a 2021 Premium that has been experiencing intermittent touchscreen power issues upon startup for a couple months. After paying attention to random things when I start the car, I have it narrowed down to the temperature outside being a factor whether or not the touchscreen works when I hop in the car. Below 50 degrees, ain't gonna work. Between 70-50, about a 50/50 chance, above that (or if the car has been driven and warmed up significantly) the touchscreen usually works like normal.
I took it into the dealer end of November and they promised the software update would fix the issue. It did not. I left it with them for a few days and they say they never saw the problem. We did have nice weather at the time. Problem with swinging by the dealer to show them is that by the time I get to the dealer (15-20 minutes away) the car has warmed up enough for the touchscreen to have come on. In order for the dealer to see/replicate the issue, I would have to leave it with them for a few days so they could do a literal cold start to try and replicate the problem.
Can anyone offer up suggestions on what could be causing this issue? I have already checked the wiring attached to the back of the touchscreen and all seems solid there. I have ruled out the fuses since the problem is intermittent. My gut is telling me it's something within the touchscreen itself.
On a random occasion when it fails to come on, the screen will display 'no signal' for a second, then turn off again.
Thanks for any feedback. I have spent way to much time on google and found nada. If all else fails I will give it back to the dealer for a week and drive the base model Corolla they will no doubt offer me as a loaner.
