Symptom DiagnosisSelf-Inertial Navigation Limitations
23-90Navigation System
General Troubleshooting Information
Refer to the Navigation System manual for the
navigation system operating procedures.
The navigation system has a coded theft protection
circuit. Be sure you have the client’s anti-theft security
code before;
 Disconnecting the battery
 Disconnecting the navigation unit A (17P) and C (12P) connector
 Removing the No. 23 (10 A) fuse from the under-hood fuse/relay box
After service, reconnect power to the navigation unit,
and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Enter the 4-digit
anti-theft security codes, then select Done.
If the code cannot be found, use the interactive Network
(iN) to look it up. You can view the serial number in one
of the Navi ECU diagnostic screen (see page 23-139).
Alternatively, you can find the serial number from the
navigation unit in the dash.
When replacing the navigation unit, be sure to give the
client the new anti-theft security code.
Certain circumstances and system limitations can result
in occasional vehicle positioning errors. Some clients
may think this indicates a problem with the navigation
system when, in fact, the system is normal. Keep the
following items in mind when interviewing clients
about symptoms of the navigation system. The limitations of the self-inertial portion of the
navigation system (the yaw rate sensor and the vehicle
speed signal) can cause some discrepancies between
the vehicle’s actual position and the indicated vehicle
position (GPS vehicle position).
The following circumstances may cause vehicle
positioning errors:
 Moving the vehicle with the engine stopped and the vehicle stopped, such as by ferry or tow truck, or if
the vehicle is spun on a turn table.
 Tire slippage, changes in tire rolling diameters, and some driving situations may cause discrepancies in
travel distances. Examples of this include:
– Continuous tire slippage on a slippery surface.
– Driving with snow chains mounted.
– Abnormal tire pressure.
– Incorrect tire size.
– Frequent lane changes across a wide highway.
– Continuous driving on a straight or gently curving highway.
 Tolerances in the system and map inaccuracies will sometimes limit how precisely the vehicle position is
indicated. Examples of this include:
– Driving on roads not shown on the map (map matching is not possible).
– Driving on a road that winds in one direction, such as a loop bridge, an interchange, or a spiral parking
garage.
– Driving on a road with a series of sharp hair-pin turns.
– Driving near a gradual highway exit or transition.
– Driving on one of two close parallel roads.
– Making many 90 degree turns.
– The direction to destination icon or the destination icon shown or the map may be up to several
hundred feet away from the actual location.

DVD Handling and CleaningEarliest DVD Version Application for Each
Model
23-95
To avoid damaging or leaving fingerprints on the DVD,
always handle it by the edges and place it in a jewel
case whenever it is outside the navigation unit. Deep
scratches or fingerprints on the back of the DVD can
cause intermittent rebooting or other system errors.
Smudges and fingerprints can be carefully removed
using a mild cleaner and tissues designed to clean
eyeglasses. To clean a DVD, use a clean soft cloth. Very
gently wipe across the DVD from the center to the
outside edge, never in a circular motion.
Do not place stabilizer rings or labels on the DVD. Each navigation system DVD contains a map/POI (point
of interest) database and the navigation system
software for each model that it supports. Inserting an
older DVD can cause problems since it lacks the
software to provide the specific features needed for that
model. Unfortunately, the navigation software does not
detect or warn you that the version is outdated, and it
may even appear to operate.
NOTE: Replacing a DVD just because the version
number is higher is not always warranted. A higher
software version does not necessarily mean it contains
newer software for your model. The DVD contains
software for all models that use the same color DVD,
and a revised number may or may not have software
fixes or upgrades for the model in question.
Typical warning symptoms that an outdated DVD is
being used include:
 The Acura model navigation screen displayd a Honda logo while booting up.
 A newly introduced model future or accessory may not display properly, and Extension displays instead.
NOTE: Extension may be displayed when using
Music Link, but should never be displayed when XM
is selected.
 The current street (the street being driven on) does not appear properly at the bottom of the map screen
display when the vehicle is driven on a main road.
NOTE: If necessary, compare the operation to the
navigation system of the same model and year
vehicle that has a current DVD.

How to Identify Navigation DVD Versions,
and How to Inspect A DVD for Damage
23-96Navigation System
General Troubleshooting Information (cont’d)
To determine the navigation version on a particular
model, start the engine, then locate the navigation unit.
Open the DVD door, and push the eject button to eject
the DVD. Hold the DVD by the edges, and check for
these items:
 The DVD label color.
 Read the DVD version on the label, and note it on the repair order. The version number is near the bottom
of the label text (for example, ver: 4.23A). You will
need this version number:
– To verify that the DVD version is appropriate for the vehicle. Check any official Honda service website
for more service information.
– Any time you call Tech Line regarding a navigation system issue.
– To answer client inquires concerning update or coverage issue.
NOTE: Clients may obtain DVDs from sources
outside the normal ordering process. If you
determine this is the case, recommend that your
client purchase the appropriate DVD from the
Honda Disc Fulf illment Center (see ORDERING A
DVD).
– Check the underside of the DVD for signs of mishandling. Deep scratches, or random scratches,
light swirl marks, or fingerprints can cause random
lock-ups, reboots, erratic voice response, erratic
positioning errors, and DVD read or format errors.
NOTE: A damaged DVD is not covered under
warranty unless the disc is damaged by the
navigation unit. Damage by the navigation unit
typically appears as circular scratches caused by
something rubbing against the DVD as it spins. The
damage may appear as arcs or complete circles on
the DVD reading surface.
– Verify that the underside of the DVD is silver, and not a copy with a blue color. Copies will not work
properly and can cause other symptoms that mimic
hardware problems.  Incorrectly colored DVDs being put into navigation
vehicles. This causes the system to either display
error messages, or causes system malfunctions that
mimic a hardware problem. This results in the client
leaving with a malfunctioning navigation system.
 The DVD version provided to the client is out-of date or incompatible with a particular model. This
inconveniences your client by delaying the repair, or
by causing additional (and unnecessary) returns to
your dealership.
 The client experiences bugs or other issues that have already been resolved in later versions currently
available at the fulfillment desk.
If the DVD is defective, or has any of the issues
mentioned above, return the vehicle to your client and
recommend that they order the proper DVD from the
Honda Disc Fulf illment Center (see ORDERING A DVD).
NOTE: Navigation DVDs do not come with replacement
navigation units. If you are replacing a navigation unit
because it is defective (following appropriate service
manual troubleshooting), and the DVD does not eject,
order a DVD. See Obtaining a navigation DVD.

Symptom Troubleshooting (cont’d)
NOTE:
 Check the vehicle battery condition first.
 Make sure that the correct DVD color and version are installed.
 Check any official Honda service website for more service information about the navigation system.
 Check for aftermarket accessories.
1. Check the GPS icon on the navigation picture.
Do the troubleshooting for GPS icon is white
or not shown (see page 23-122).
Go to step 2.
2. Go into the Diagnostic Menu, and use the Yaw Rate test (see page 23-144) to check the yaw rate sensor.
3. Go into the Diagnostic Menu and use the Car Status test (see page 23-141) to check the vehicle speed
pulse.
The problem may be a normal characteristic.
Check to see if the problem occurs in the same
place. If it does, the problem could be in the
database. Compare to a known-good vehicle under
the same conditions. If you can duplicate the
problem, report it. Refer to the client Assistance
section of the Navigation User’s Guide, ‘‘Reporting
Errors’’.
If the problem is the yaw rate sensor, replace
the navigation unit (see page 23-155). If the
problem is the vehicle speed pulse, troubleshoot
the vehicle speed signal circuit. NOTE:
 Check the vehicle battery condition first.
 This symptom is usually caused by a defective yaw rate sensor. Perform this diagnostic when the vehicle
is cold and warm.
 Also refer to symptom troubleshooting for GPS icon is white or not shown (see page 23-122).
1. Go into the Diagnostic Menu, and use the Yaw Rate test (see page 23-144).
The system is OK.
Replace the navigation unit (see page 23-155).

System Diagnostic Mode (cont’d)










Why wont the Export or Import
functions work or are grayed out?
What do I check as part of
troubleshooting?
The card may not be fully inserted into the slot. Eject the PC card, and
inspect for warping or damage to the edge connector. Never use
excessive force to insert a PC card. This can result in damage to the
pins in the rear of the slot.
The PC card may not contain files that are recognized by the new
navigation unit. Navigation data can only be transferred between
navigation units with the same Model code, and with the same navi
Program flash version.
The flash memory chip type may not be accepted by the system. Only
Compact Flash and ATA cards have been tested.
The card’s PCMCIA adaptor may prevent a known-
good card from
being recognized Avoid multi-slot type PCMCIA adaptors that accept
several different flash memory types.
The card may be full and as a result the files are stored, but without
any data. Export and import appear to function, but move nothing.
Delete unused files from the PC card.
There may not be any files on the PC card. If the PC card has a write
protection switch, make sure it is turned off before using the Export
function.
Although flash memory chips are reliable, occasionally they develop
bad sectors or other formatting errors that prevents them from
accepting files. The PC card should be reformatted using the FAT
format.
The PC card may have been formatted using the format NTFS. Only the
FAT format is accepted by the system.
Hard Disc Drive (HDD) cards may not work properly in the system and
can overheat or quit functioning, particularly in a hot vehicle. They are
not recommended.
Before performing the Import function, ensure that the original
navigation DVD is loaded into the new navigation unit and working
properly.
