Default i installed the blitzsafe adapter to hook up iPOD and ever since my onboard computer isn't coming up

I'm talking about the screen in front of me between the tach and speedo. when i start the engine the screen says OK, but then goes black, what is the problem? maybe it doesn't have anything to do w/ the blitzsafe and it is just a coincidence. tia

Try pressing the button on the bottom of the right stalk. Can do that.

That can still come on. The top is where the OK shows up. Not the bottom part.
