CAR STEREO SCREEN FLICKERING CAUSES AND FIXES

2023-05-03

If you're a person who is fascinated by pure audio and gets motivated by good sound quality then, a car stereo system is probably one of the most vital parts of your vehicle. 
Sometimes you may encounter issues like your car stereo screen flickering, which can be equally frustrating and dangerous while driving. The display screen occasionally starts flashing on and off on the car stereo system. This happens if the connectors need to be cleaned or if something like power fluctuation has affected the memory of the car stereo system. Thus a head unit can make or break your listening experience.
At CarPlanet, we offer a range of car audio upgrading services, including head unit repair  and replacement, to help you get the most out of your car stereo system. Whether your car stereo system runs on an Alpine head unit, Pioneer head unit, or any premium brand, we’ve covered it all.
In this blog, we'll explore the causes of car stereo screen flickering and suggest a few solutions to fix the issue.

Causes of Car Stereo Screen Flickering:

Power Issues: In most cases, power issues are the root cause of screen flickering. If the head unit is not receiving sufficient power, it can lead to screen flickering. In some cases, the power cable may have a loose connection or the battery may be weak.
Incompatible Head Unit: If you have recently upgraded to a new head unit, which may not be compatible with your car's wiring system, it may lead to screen flickering.
Android Auto Upgrade: If you've recently upgraded your head unit with an Android Auto upgrade, you may experience screen flickering, often due to compatibility issues.
Software or Firmware Issues: The software or firmware of the head unit may need to be updated occasionally to fix screen flickering.
Overheating: Excessive heat can cause electronic components including your Android headrest monitor,  to malfunction,  which can lead to screen flickering.

Fixes for Car Stereo Screen Flickering:

Check Power Connection: If you suspect the issue is due to a power connection, checking the wiring and making sure everything is connected properly will help. If the issue persists, try checking the battery voltage with a multimeter. But remember to consult and get help from professionals like CarPlanet Dubai to complete the task efficiently.

Upgrade Head Unit: If the issue is caused by an incompatible head unit, upgrading to a head unit that is compatible with your car's wiring system can solve the issue.
Update Software or Firmware: If the issue is caused by software or firmware, updating the head unit's software or firmware can solve the issue.
Install Android Headrest Monitor: If the flickering issue persists after upgrading to an Android Auto system, installing an Android headrest monitor can provide a separate display for the Android Auto system, which can reduce the load on the head unit's display and solve the issue.
Head Unit Repairing: If the above solutions do not solve the issue, repairing the head unit may be necessary. A professional car audio upgrading service provider, like CarPlanet, can diagnose the issue and provide a solution.
In conclusion, car stereo screen flickering can be caused by a variety of issues, ranging from power problems to software or firmware issues. Fortunately, there are multiple solutions to fix this issue, including upgrading the head unit, checking the power connection, updating software or firmware, installing an Android headrest monitor, or seeking professional head unit repair services.
