Did a couple of ILS approaches into Brussels and the displays went black directly after “fly now”. Restarted 3 times and got blank displays every time. Not until after restarting the sim I got working displays.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
Yes. I switch on batteries 1 and 2 and then external power and either 1) the pfd, FMC and all other screens remain black (yes, I’ve checked the brightness) or 2) they do come on but shortly after (within 5 minutes) go black.

Just start a flight with the A320. It doesn’t happen every time, but at least 70% of the time

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
Yes, and it’s not just the A320. It happens in the 747-8i and the Cessna Citation. I think it happens mostly in the 747 because I’m yet to actually have a successful flight in that plane

It is happening to me also in different planes including helicopters. Sometime the displays remain for two minutes than they disappear suddenly or the won’t show up from the beginning on. Is there any workaround. It happened in different versions of MSFS2020 - even after bigger updates…

PC, XBOX Store version, fresh install, no mods except FBW A320, for me the problem is the A310, start on runway, no avionic screens. Can fly aircraft, though. Other aircraft OK ( CJ4, TBM930, 172, FBW a320) are OK.
