On board computer not displaying
This is true of default and mod trucks. I can try different modes dx9, dx11, opengl, same issue.
Screenshot: https://ibb.co/17zb3cz There are a few times the OBC works, but then stop on the next loading screen. I have tested with a modded profile and vanilla profile. I also re-verified my files. Any ideas on what is going on and how to fix it?

You have mod or mods in conflict. Try to remove all of the mods. Start game. If the display works then I would add mods one at time until you find the one that is causing the display to not work.

Thank you for that info for those who don't know how to find a trouble mod. That is what I meant by a vanilla profile. As I said that it will sometimes work, but most of the time it is blank. Depending on the truck I can use SISL to give an alternate OBC, but does not resolve the current issue. I believe that this is some render issue since on a vanilla profile is still affected.

This is not necessarily mod related; SCS is working on it as there have been reports that some users have seen this on vanilla profiles as far back as the beta. I only experienced it about 3 or 4 releases before final but others still have the issue now.

The only workaround I am aware of is a quick restart of the game; I only ever experienced it when I swapped trucks, if I started and ended the game in the same truck I never had a problem.

That makes a great deal of sense. Last update I played was before trailers were released and everything was fine then. hopefully SCS can find the cause and truly fix this. Thank you.

Most cases it could be mods but not always. I looked at my mods and thought the same then as I was turning off mods it was still the same. Restart of the game seems to be a good work around. Glad I'm not the only one having this issue, was thinking my game was broken.

Another thing, I forgot. Sometimes after removing mods...mods still linger. Try buying a new truck or replace the your current truck at the dealership and see if the works. This had worked for me if I can not get the current truck to work after i have done everything. I hope this helps.
