lilliput doesn't like the cold

**bramlet** · 12-08-2010, 03:19 PM

Hello, I live in North Carolina, It has been a little chilly and my double din lilliput 701 is having trouble in the cold weather.

The screen flashes white when power goes on and then blank. I have to wait for the car to warm a bit then power cycle. When its working correctly there is no white screen displayed.

Has anybody else experienced this? Remedies?

Yep.

Move to Florida. (But then you may start to experience heat issues)

Maybe be like a bird a fly south for the winter

Colder where I am, no issues, but I don't have the exact same model. In either case nothing feasible can be done save waiting.

I had a similar issue with the original xenarc 701tsv some 7-8 years ago which was backlit ccfl. It would glow white and or pink until the cabin temperature warmed up. I ended up switching to an led xenarc and never had an issue since.

Same here. We had a 18 degree morning a few weeks ago (which was an all time cold record btw) and my Lilliput started up fine. I used to have problems with my 3.5 drive but I went with the 2.5" Seagate hybrid and that boots up in the cold no problem.
