Blank infotainment screen

Hi all. Apologies if this has been covered previously looking for a little pre purchase advice. Been to see a 54 plate disco 3 today cracking motor but the screen displaying the information above the radio is showing no info at all. It lights up and the radio works just no info on the screen. And idea what may be causing this more importantly any idea on price to put right. All and any advice will be greatly received.

Thanks in advance

It could be a faulty screen or part of the most/infared circuit which carries the info could be damaged if its at a garage get them to sort it or if you know someone with IID tool or similar get them to read the codes which should tell you what is wrong as that could be expensive or hard to find what is wrong

Don't think him getting it sorted would be an option. Best avoided or ask for a hefty discount?

Walk away then unless he will sort it or ask for a grand off and see what he says you never know you can pick up screens for about£200 or so and not to bad to change

it is the green screen that the stereo info is displayed on. It lights up but after that it is just a blank screen. There doesn't seem to be any damage to the screen is no leaked liquid or obvious cracks. That's quite some bill. Guess I'd better get used to them!?

ok now might be a daft question have you pushed the left hand knob in and is there sound coming form the stereo??reason I ask is because even with the radio turned off the green display is lit .

forget that ,just re read the opening post again radio is on .
