Skoda Yeti Diesel Electrical Problems

Hoping someone can offer some insight. I have a Skoda Yeti diesel from . I'm experiencing some weird electrical issues. The navigation system is completely dead, and it seems like car electronics generally is not working. Could this be related to something called transport mode? This is what I suspect, because the engine start itself is still working.

Transport mode can cause those symptoms. Was the car recently transported? Check the car's configuration. Sometimes a software installation is needed to deactivate it.

Thanks for the quick reply. I purchased it used, so I don't know if it was recently transported. How exactly do I check the car's configuration, and is a software installation something I can do myself?

The car's configuration requires specialized diagnostic tools; it's not a DIY task. The software installation also needs specific equipment. Take it to a workshop to confirm if transport mode is indeed active and have them reset the car.

Took it to a shop and they confirmed it was the transport mode. Car configuration was reset with a software installation, and everything is working now. No cost involved.
