Make sure the START button is pressed (without foot on brake...engine NOT running). Then follow the instruction below where it says to press & hold the VOL button for at least 25 seconds. I'd also pull up the main MENU screen just to be on the safe side. See paragraph that red arrow is pointing to in pic below from the TIS:

can you scan the car with ista? i see your having issues with the cic and i wouldnt be suprised if it is causing other parts to not work as it is the information hub in the car. but based off the power down and restart i would suspect it is either the cic unit itself is failing, or the quadlock connector is loose.

contact bimmer-tech.net for deeper assitance with that. i would say the head unit died imo. the zgw and cgw still appear to be responding. i bet the fiber optic port is dying in the head unit. that is the loss in lock missing. having dealt with fiber optic systems before typically losing lock is data bit stream errors. or loss of reference clock. for the screen to display i would say the power cable is good, the display cable is also probably good, since with no input the screen turns off. its probably easy to say just replace the dead unit but i fear that may be the solution instead of something a little cheaper or easier.

i just took out my CIC..i saw a blue 15 fuse in the back , before replacing the CIC unit i replaced the blue fuse. it works now, but the problem is intermittent. so i will wait 2 days to see how it does before replacing the CIC

potential coincidence, only time will tell right now. did you unplug the quad lock and put it back on? potentially reconnecting could solve your problem, provide better contact on the connector blades. it if the CIC unit is truly failing it will come back up as a failure. just curious how much was a replacement CIC head unit?
