Touch Screen Failure 2012 Verso

[Chuckie358]

Hi Folks

The touch screen on my 2012 Verso has stopped working. Outer buttons seem to work intermitently! 

I've googled all weekend without much success. I can't find a way to do a reboot which sometimes seems to be an option to cure the problem. I took the fuse out overnight, which appeared to do a reboot, but the fault continues.

I've seen some scary prices from Toyota for a replacement, the head unit is a 59026 model. 

Does anyone have any experience of a fix for this? Can they be repaired or do I need a replacement? Been looking at off the shelf head units online. I would like to keep all the original functionality and use of the steering wheel buttons if possible. Does anyone have a recommendation of a good replacement unit and/or a Midlands based company that can install?

Lots of questions from a newbie and a first post. Appreciate any help or feedback.

5 years, 80,000 miles and this is the first issue with the car.
