1 Blind Spot Detection problem

Failure Date: 06/05/2023

I am having issues with my touch screen. My screen will go black every other week, for about a day and the the snyc will update. This time, it’s been over a week, and the screen is still black. I have tried changing fuses to no avail. Also, the rear camera does not work. Along with the blind spot warning or the rear cross traffic warning. How should I proceed? I believe it may be a faulty chip in the computer board.
