The Kia Telluride is a popular model that has been in production for a few years now. It has had its share of problems since its inception, but many of these have been addressed in newer models that are on the market today. Still, having a car screen malfunction is not a good thing, especially if you need to be able to see the road clearly. Fortunately, you can fix this problem easily.
Common Problems in Kia Telluride Screen Not Working
Faulty connector wirings
Car radio displays on some cars do not work because of faulty connector wires. You will find some small connectors that are very important for the system to function properly. If some of these wires are not working properly because of a bad connector or a broken wire, your car will not work properly.
If one of the wires carrying signals from one component to another is broken, your car’s head unit will not work and will not show you any information. Therefore, it is important to check all the wires in your car.
Overheating amp
If you turn the volume on the recorder too high, or if there is a lot of resistance or airflow, the amplifier will overheat, and will automatically turn off. Hence, you should not activate the protection mode on the amplifier. The amplifier will then shut down to protect the amp or other components in the infotainment system. If the amplifier gets too hot, it may cause the valves to burst and cause the fuse to blow up. It is important to wait until the amplifier is fully cooled before using it.
Malfunctioning power source
If the car has a radio or other in-car infotainment system, it requires power to operate. If there is a failure in the power source of the car, the car’s infotainment system may also fail. Some common reasons why the infotainment system won’t start because the power source is not working are a blown fuse in the car, wiring problems, blown valves or lack of power to operate the system.

If power to the vehicle fails, turn off the power supply. Check the fuse for damage with a multimeter by placing a probe on the fuse and reading the voltage it produces. If the multimeter shows that the fuse is ok, the fuse has not exploded. If the multimeter does not show a reading, the fuse has exploded. This means that the radio ground connection is damaged, such as a faulty connection or a wire that is corroded or is no longer connected properly.
Damaged antenna
If the antenna on your radio is broken or damaged, it won’t be able to receive the signals that the radio is sending or that station won’t be able to transmit the signal at all. Simply remove the antenna by loosening the bolt. If an antenna’s mast is damaged, remove it, and reinstall the antenna. If you can’t fix the problem by tapping the antenna, a new antenna must be installed.
