Restart infotainment system?

[penndavis]

Is there a way to just restart the infotainment system? My cell connection for the vehicle and Wi-Fi went out yesterday. I thought it would just come back and then again today it was still out and I couldn’t figure out how to kind of airplane mode it like a phone and then back on again. So I ended up just going to settings and restarting the vehicle and after the restart everything came back on, but I was just wondering if there’s an easier way.

Press and hole the leftmost and rightmost steering wheel buttons until the display(s) tell you to release them.

My Gen 2 R1S has failed to connect to my home wifi the past two days. Trying to manually reconnect it fails. Only thing that fixes it is an infotainment restart. I put a ticket in this morning.

Thanks for this post...I always wondered what the "F" in "RTFM" stood for

And also, NOT when your truck is sticking out of the garage (assuming your right button also activates the garage door). It happened to me .....I mean, my friend last week.

I believe what you have been advised to do is called a software reset. A tech doing a mobile visit advised that you do software resets when you infotainment system/screen is acting oddly.
