HUD quit working

[nhsjpeterson]

A couple of months ago, my radio fin got destroyed. This took out my HUD display. It took 2 months to get the parts, but once it was installed, the HUD worked -- for about 2 days. Then it quit and hasn't come back on-line. There is no HUD display at all. I went back to the body shop that put in the new fin. They didn't know what could have caused it, and when I took it in to a Kia dealer today (for an oil change), they said they would take a quick look at it, but they didn't find anything. So, it looks like I will have to make an appointment to have it looked at -- unless someone here has some experience with this problem who might point me in the right direction to solving the problem. Any help out there?

Radio fin? Like the external antenna?
How did it get destroyed?

And how is it related to the HUD?
Strange.

Yes, that's the part. Backed out of the garage when the door was not all the way up.

Since I had no HUD display whatsoever during the time the antenna was off, I assumed the two must have something in common. In any case, I just found out that there is a setting in the LCD modes that I apparently inadvertently changed as I was driving a few days ago. All is well now, and I learned something new (mainly, to spend some time with the manuals)
