Not always.
Many No Signal issues originate from the HU_ENTRY head unit rather than the display itself.
Do I need a replacement head unit?
Not necessarily.
Many HU_ENTRY failures can be repaired without replacing the module.
Will I lose my coding?
Because the original unit is typically repaired, original vehicle configuration is generally retained.
Do I need to send the screen?
In most situations only the HU_ENTRY module is required.
