Good afternoon all,
Was just washing the zed to get the crud off after heavy rain and noticed that ive got a little bit of condesation in the near side head light so after drying the car i started it to turn it round so that the sun can warm it up to see whether that'll sort it.
Car started idrive screen popped up and went completely red then black, then nothing.
Ive left it 10 minutes and it's done the same - has this happened to anyone else?

Its a video feed problem, cable - screen (you dont want that they are £2650 - just had mine changed) or the video source itself.. My first step would be to simply check everything is tight, especially cables.
If it did it after washing your car check your carpets under the dash for damp spots, you may have a drip that has wet the video feed cable connections.

After being lefy pointing into the sun for a while i took it out and it seemed OK, the navigation took longer than normal to get a fix but ive driven it round a few times and it hasnt reoccurred.
I went through a crazy amount of standing water this week (ive changed my job so do a lot of country lane driving now ).
The carpets seem a little moist, but that could be where i was tramping around in the wet and left a coat in the footwell.
