04 Nav screen changes color when cold

Now that the colder winter months have set in, I am finding that when the outside temps drop the navigation screen changes color to a aqua green. When the car warms up the screen goes back to the blueish color that it is set to. Has anyone else encountered this?

nope, I have not seen this, and I have an 04 as well. I would guess that it might be a bad screen. I would take it to acura as the screen is 2K alone...

I see this all the time. I guess perhaps the poster from Florida doesn't know what it's like to go out to your car when it's 20 degrees outside.

During the day, all of the colors are off for 5-10 minutes. If the screen is in the night mode, everything is super dim and very hard to see until the screen warms up.

Not an issue - just the electronics needing time to warm up.

Sometimes it does not change back, sometimes it takes 10 minutes, other times it could take a half hour. I can't seem to find any consistence.

I had the TL up north from jan. to about july, so I know what it feels like. Also time to time, in the winter it drops into the low 30s or high 20s. I didn't have any problems with the screen then, but it may take some time to happen.
