When the infotainment system of the Volkswagen Golf is not working, it is possible that some components managing its operation are damaged. You should check for any damage to the wiring connected internally to the specific screen.

You should also check for any damage to the fuse that regulates the operation of the device; if all components are intact, it may be necessary to perform a system update. To do this, take the car to the official network or an authorised Volkswagen centre.
