Some of you may already know about this feature. I had my center screen mysteriously go blank on me. I reviewed the Mazda User Manual and didn't see anything obvious that could cause it. It started working (again mysteriously) a day or two later. Thought the display might be flakey. Took the the CX-50 to Mazda service today for a different reason and mentioned this to the service advisor. He showed me that if you happen to press down on the volume / mute button for greater than 3 seconds, it turns off the display. Apparently it is for situations where the driver may not want passengers to see info on the display (like an Uber driver). Anyhow just sharing in case this happens to any of you.

FWIW, any bizarre situations we as owners may run across like this, there is a very good chance it has been answered on CX30talk, a somewhat of a sister forum to this one.
There were more than a few owners scratching their heads with this same issue.
Thing is they are similar vehicles and the 30 crowd has been around for a few years, so more experienced.

Having intermittent blank screen on startup. After using android auto for navigation shut the truck down. Upon starting blank screen later that day after being in supermarket started up and surround view came on but when I put it in drive blank screen again. Came home and parked in driveway screen came on with Android auto when I put it in park. What the heck is this.
