A320 MFD panel not working
Since the last update whenever I fire a flight on an A320 neo the MFD panel is always just black even though all the other panels are working and ready to go...

any ideas or another bug?

thanks

Best guess with the info provided is to grab the A32NX mod from github, as I have not seen this bug, and get the downloader as well. Use the downloader periodically to check for updates and it will update the mod in your communities folder for you.

A32NX gives you far more control over the MFD's and adds a heap of functionality. But if you start from cold and dark scenario and if you're not familiar with A32NX then a quick search on youtube should get you feeling more like an A320 pilot lol.

That is a known issue mentioned in notes for Sim Update 3. They mentioned all you need to do is Restart the Flight but it can happen a few times in a row to be wary of.
If you do use the A32NX then the version you want is DEV Version as that works mostly in this Update. All except loading the World Map Flight Plans I read.

Does this happen with other aircraft that have a glass cockpit?

Silly question but there is electrical power applied to the aircraft correct? Also, on the left of the PFD (from the Captains side) there are knobs to adjust the brightness (though you shouldn't need to mess with this when starting from cold and dark). You simply turn on the batteries and you will see the displays fine.

I have started the a320 up with the battery and everything en nothing happend . I also did not touch the knobs for the brightness of the displays . I also tryed with starting up the landing challenge where everything should already be on and still the screens stay blank .

Go into the Content Manager and uninstall (delete) the A320neo then reinstall it. You may get a message about something missing which prevents you from reinstalling it. Simply restart MSFS and then you can reinstall it.
