Had it happen almost same day as a recent software update.

Also once when I swapped screen bracket for one of the swivel type that uses the hdmi (usb c looking) connector but was install error as the cable was not marked for proper direction and once flipped the screen worked.

One other time I was siting in my driveway a long period of time going through various settings and once I opened the door it came back up. (I think I did a scroll wheel reboot as well) but the door was what lit everything up again.

Luckily, the display unit is a separate computer from the drive and other systems. A Tesla can operate without the screen.

That's why there's an alternate PRNDL selector on the mirror/camera unit above your head.

Hopefully it was just a software glitch, but definitely report it!
