2002 S-class Comand - blank screen

[jgj]

The screen on my 2002 S-class Comand has gone blank, although the radio etc still works. The screen on/off button has no effect, and nor does turning the ignition off and on. Assuming that the screen is faulty, can it be replaced without changing the entire system? It's the older type with the square-ish screen.

Regards, John

Parts for these are hard to come by. But the whole units appear on eBay from time to time.

Its actually one big unit behind the wood trim - not a separate screen unit.

I've just had the screen and the screen driver board replaced by Braybrooks near Welwyn. They did it while I waited and charged £300. A new Comand unit from the dealer would have been £2500! Very pleased.
