Try jolting the nozzle toward the screen that insists upon your attention. You may find that LCD TFT panels are not as strong as steel.

Can one accidentally disable the annoying shilling screen whilst jostling the nozzle toward the intended vehicular orifice?

Point said nozzle towards offending ad dispensing machine, squeeze trigger for a few moments, light a match, tell yourself that it was all worth it while recovering in a jail hospital.

Press and hold two buttons in each corner. If those don’t work, try the other two. Keep iterating through pressing and holding one button on either side of the screen. Eventually, you will open a diagnostic menu. You can’t do anything here without a passcode, but it will stop the ad.
I’ve only come across a few pumps where I could not figure out the combo before I finished pumping.

With the few stations near me that have them, the mute button is the 2nd down from the top on the right side of the screen.
