I'm guessing its a broken LCD unit.
Perhaps our resident audio expert can help?

If the display on your radio is square in shape then it is faulty and needs to be replaced. Not a very expensive repair.

Could you suggest somewhere that might fix it. I rang the garage where I bought it he said my best bet would be to buy a hole new one from parts.ie and get it fited which seems way too much hassle for a small screen with broken pixels

What part of the country are you in ? It can be done a lot cheaper than that.

Have a similar issue with black screen on LCD but radio/cd audio is working fine. It's an 07 avensis.
Would anyone know where I could get a replacement LCD screen? I had a look online but can't seem to find anything.
In Galway if anyone knows someone who might fix it there.
Thanks

There’s definitely someone who can help so. PM the poster above you.

Your radio is possibly model W58830...written on front face. Display is a regular to go faulty in this model. I have replacement Lcd for this one ...
pm me if you want .

At the time it worked out cheaper for me buying a radio from halfords and the adaptor to house it on ebay rather then fixing it.

You miss out on steering controls, AVLS - plus an aftermarket looks out of place IMO but of course if budget is a factor then fair enough. On the flip side You probably gained aux in or USB

Steering controls adapter the likes of 20 quid off ebay.

colm_mcm

Provided the headunit you buy is able to take it.

Can be easily checked prior to purchase. :cool:
