DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
- Diagnosis start-up
For shifting diagnosis mode, turn ignition switch ON and push the "DISC" switch 3 times while pressing "ch1" and "ch6" switches.
HINT:
To exist from the diagnosis mode, push the "DISC" switch for 1.7 sec. or turn ignition switch to ACC or OFF.
- Service check mode
- After the diagnosis start-up, the system enters service check mode.
- Error codes over tuner and connected equipment are displayed on the screen of tuner. Results for each check are displayed as follows:
- good:
No DTC is detected for both "System Check Confirmation" and "Diagnosis Memory Response".
- nCon:
The Component does not respond to the "Diagnosis On Instruction" command.
Applicable to only the system where connected components are limited to be used.
- ECHn:
Application of new version has been confirmed by the "Diagnosis On Check", and there is one or more DTC which indicates "Replacement" in the "System Check Result Response" or "Diagnosis Memory Response".
- CHEC:
Application of new version has been confirmed by the "Diagnosis On Check", and there is no DTC which indicates "Replacement" in the "System Check Result Response" or "Diagnosis Memory Response", but one or more DTC which indicated "Check" is identified.
- Old:
Application of old version is confirmed by the "Diagnosis On Check", and DTC is identified in the "System Check Result Response" or "Diagnosis Memory Response".
- nrES:
No response is identified to the "System Check Start Instruction" and "Request for System Check Result" commands.
- good:
HINT:
- Check the present and past condition of components by performing the System Check and collecting stored DTC memories.
- Check results shall be displayed as one of six following indications: "good", "ECHn", "CHEC'V'nCon", "Old" or "nrES".

DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
Error codes over tuner and connected equipment are displayed on the screen of tuner.
- Diagnosis start-up
For shifting to diagnosis mode, push "DISC" switch 3 times with pressing "1" and "6" of PRESET switch at the same time while the audio power is OFF and ACC is ON.
To exit from diagnosis mode, press "DISC" switch for 2 seconds or turn the ignition key OFF. (When "1-190" is displayed, the mode is transferred to LAN check mode.)
- LAN check
When starting up the diagnosis mode, the mode turns to LAN check mode, the screen displays the code numbers (physical address) of tuner and connected equipment. Smaller codes are displayed in order, displayed code numbers are switched by operating TUNE "UP" or "DOWN" switch. In LAN check mode, by pressing "5" of PRESET switch for more than 2 secs., diagnosis memory of each equipment can be deleted, when deletion is completed, the mode returns to LAN check mode.
Code No. (physical address) List
CODE NO. (PHYSICAL ADDRESS) LIST IDENTIFICATIONCode No. (physical address) Equipment name 190 Radio receiver assembly (Audio head unit) 240 CD changer (in Luggage room) 360 CD changer (in center console and glove compartment box) 440 Power amplifier - System check
- When pressing "1" of PRESET switch in LAN check mode, the mode turns to the system check mode, the system performs self diagnosis of connected equipment and displays the results ("SYS" (showing the system is under detection) is displayed.)
- Perform the operation shown in Fig 7 , then read the result of the inspection.
HINT:
- It sometimes takes approx. 40 secs, till the system inspection is completed.
- An example of when diagnosis code "21" appears on the physical address (190) equipment. (ROM error occurs on the radio receiver.) is shown in Fig 7
- The smaller code numbers (physical address) are displayed in order (code No., diagnosis code, support code of diagnosis code (object equipment)).
- When no error is detected in the system, "00" is displayed.
- When an error code is detected, up to 6 codes per one system are displayed. Pressing TUNE "UP" or "DOWN" switches the display.
- In the system check mode, when pressing "6" of PRESET switch the mode returns to LAN check mode.
- Diagnosis memory
- In LAN check mode, when pressing "2" of PRESET switch the mode turns to the diagnosis memory mode. ("CODE" is displayed.)
The results of self diagnosis performed over tuner and connected equipment are memorized and displayed.
- Perform the operation shown in Fig 8 , then read the result of the inspection.
HINT:
- The smaller code numbers (physical address) are displayed in order (code No., periodic communication number when error occurs, diagnosis code, and support code of diagnosis code (object equipment)).
- When no error is detected in the system, "00" is displayed. When an error code is detected, up to 6 codes per one system are displayed. Pressing TUNE "UP" or "DOWN" switches the display. Each diagnosis code is same as code in the system check mode.
- When pressing "6" of PRESET switch, the mode returns to LAN check mode.
- An example of when diagnosis code "D1" appears on the code (190) and (240 or 360) equipment. (Communication error occurs between the radio receiver and CD changer.) is shown in Fig 8
- In LAN check mode, when pressing "2" of PRESET switch the mode turns to the diagnosis memory mode. ("CODE" is displayed.)
- Diagnosis memory clear
- After error is fixed, start up the diagnosis mode.
- Continue pressing preset switch "5" for 2 secs. (CLr is displayed.)
- Press the preset switch "2" and transfer to the diagnosis memory mode and check that the normal code (00) is output.
- Diagnosis start-up

DIAGNOSIS CODE LIST
- If there is "O" in the column of system check, an error can be detected when the mode is switched to the system check mode.
- If there is "O" in the column of diagnosis mode, each unit is monitoring whether or not it has failure. In case of detecting failure, it memorizes DTC.
- PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE NOTE: When replacing the internal mechanism (computer part) of the audio system, be careful that no part of your body or clothing comes in contact with the terminals of the leads from the IC, etc. of the replacement part (spare part).
