      and reboot

      to stop my frequent black screens.

      then I added this module to record more info

          @sdetweil did what you said pie ran over night. Went to work and it was blank again. I think it’s something do to with one of my modules Google maps. I saw the command prompt and saw a error I believe.

                @tbs86 are you using pm2?

                if so, look in the ~/.pm2/logs folder MagicMirror.error.log

                also the heavy way.

                edit the config and add
                disabled: true,

                to the module you think it is, and then restart

                  Sorry still new to this. Disable the module and see if this fixed the issue?

                        If it was the MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic module that you’re seeing errors with, I had to comment out the console.log line noted in this commit, which fixed the black screen issue I was having. https://github.com/vicmora/MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic/pull/24/commits/90f51f6f7a155241a4371106ea3ca899b20a7380
