Default PCM went totaly dark!

Help I turned left and my PCM went totally dark. blank screen, no lights on the buttons, nothing. no white screen with the PORSCHE logo on start up. It's a 2006 S with 162000 miles. Hoping it's something easy like a fuse but any ideas or advice will help.

Your PCM is DOA, due to heat cycling degradation which leads to software corruption. Do a 1/4/8 hard reset... if that even helps. If nothing - send it to Tom at Becker Autosound LLC.

Well I tried the 1/4/8..... nothing. So who's this Tom fellow and where is Autosound? Or is it time to up grade, Bluetooth would be nice.

Another thing, when my PCM went out my alarm went from making two beeps to sounding like it was dying sort of "blahhh blahh", and I can not unlock my rear hatch. Any ideas?
