Electronics Package Logic Locked

[grtday]

Yesterday, I fired up the Genesis to show off the cool widgets to a buddy.
I was dancing all over the function switches and the system locked up with no sound...no nav...no nothing. Screen was lit but the icons did not populate.
I was in traffic so I stopped the car and turned it off, thinking this would clear the system. Nope. Still nothing.
I drove 25 miles to a call, shut her down, came back to the vehicle and all was well and functioning normally.
Go figure?
Any ideas group?

With most newer cars I have experienced, I have noticed systems don't turn off unless you open and close the door, so i'm sure some of that corrupt juice was still running around until the system had a hard reset.

The electronics in today's cars are getting too fancy and complicated (I love them!). If I have the USB drive plugged in and start the Gen, sometimes it start playing by itself but not always.

I'm with Dimitry. Not sure about the door open/close, but I'm thinking it is the time for the internal capacitors to drain and bring the internal circuits to zero. In some circuit designs this is quick. Maybe. Maybe.
