MIB STD2 – Volkswagen Touch Screen Not Working
Is your Volkswagen suffering from a touch screen that is not working properly? If the answer is yes, then it is likely that the MIB STD2 navigation and entertainment control unit is failing. Unfortunately, this is a common problem that impacts a variety of VW vehicles produced from 2014-2021, this fault also affects the Skoda Yeti and Superb (2015-2019), and the Seat Alhambra and Leon (2014-2018).
Malfunctioning MIB STD2 units will display a range of faults in Volkswagen, Skoda, or Seat vehicles, with the most common being the touch screen not working or poorly responding to screen touches. Other indicators of failure include ghost touch symptoms, such as the MIB STD2 selecting and working by itself, the radio buttons not working, and dead spots being prevalent on the touch display, preventing use. Lastly, and in particular for Volkswagen owners, you may also experience the display screen being stuck on the ‘Welcome to Volkswagen’ start screen.
If you are looking for a solution to the unresponsive touch screen in the Volkswagen, you may think approaching the manufacturer will help solve the problem. However, you will be told to buy a completely new unit, which is an expensive and time-consuming route to take, as there will also be a higher chance that new MIB STD2 fails from the original fault.
