Consumer Description

I got into my car two days ago and the computer screen was black. I have tried everything to reset it, holding down both scroll wheels with the brake pressed for up to 2 minutes, unplugging the low voltage battery overnight and plugging it back in, and even doing the hard reset at the disconnect under the rear passenger seats and my computer will not turn on. I can't see any information about my speed or how much charge I have, I can't turn on climate controls and it's the middle of winter and I live in the mountains of Colorado. I can't even open my glove box without the screen. From everything I read, it sounds like an MCU failure, my vehicle has the newer MCU2. Tesla quoted about $800 for a tow and it sounds like the replacement costs could be $2500+
