SRS components are located in this area. Review the
SRS component locations (see page 23-13) andprecautions and procedures {see page 23-'l4) in the SRS
section before performing repairs or service.
1, Remove the driver's dashboard lower cover {seepage 20-59).
2. Disconnect the 5P connector from the under-dash

Self-diagnostic Procedure
The gauge assembly has a self-diagnosis function.. The Beeper Drive Circuit Check. The Indicator Drive Circuit ChecL. The LCD Segments Check. The Gauges Drive Circuit Check (Speedometer, Tachometer, Fuel gauge, Coolant temperature gauge). The Communication Line Check (the coolanttemperature signal line between the gauge and ECM)
NOTE: Indicators are also controlled via the communication line.
Entering the self-diagnosis f unction:
Before doing the self-diagnosis function, check the No. 9 (10A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box and No. 10 {7.5A)fuse in the under'dash fuse/relay box.
1. Push and hold the trip/reset button.
2. Turn the lighting switch ON.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
4. Within 5 sec., turn the lighting switch OFF, then ON and OFF again.5. Within 5 sec., release the trip/reset button, then push and release the button four times reDeatedlv.
NOTE:. While in the self-diagnosis mode, the dash lights brightness controller operates normally.'Whileintheself-diagnosismode,thetrip/resetbuttonisusedtostartthebeeperdrivecircuitcheckandthegauge

The LCD Segment Check:
When entering the self-diagnosis mode, the odo/trip segment blinks five times.
The Gauge Drive Circuit Check:
When entering the self-diagnosis mode, the speedometer, the tachometer, the fuel gauge, and the coolant
temperature gauge needles sweep from the minimum position to maximum position, then return to the minimum
posrtron.
NOTE: After the beeper stops sounding and the needles return to the minimum position, pushing the trip/reset button
starts the beeper drive circuit check (one beep) and the gauge drive circuit check again.
The check cannot be started untilthe needles return to the minimum position.

The Communication Line Check:
In the self-diagnosis mode, after the odo/trip LCD segments check, the self-diagnosis starts the communication line

lf all segments comes on, the communication line is OK.
lf the word "Error" is indicated, there is a malfunction in the communication line between the gauge assembly. the
multiDlex control unit. and the ECM.

IVehicle Speed Signal Circuit Troubleshooting
Special Tools Required:
Test Harness 07LAJ-PT3020A
Before testing, inspect the No. 4 (10A) and No. 10 (7.5A)
fuses in the under-dash fuse/relay box.
1. Disconnect the 3P connector from the vehicle
speed sensor (VSS) {A).
Connect the test harness only to the engine wire
harness.
Connect the RED test harness clip (B) to the positive
probe of an ohmmeter. Cover the white (C) and
green {D) test harness leads with protective tape (E).
Check for continuity between the RED test harness
clip and body ground,

Daytime Running Lights Control Unit Input Test - Canada
The DRL indicator light in the gauge assembly will come on when you turn the ignition switch to ON (ll) with the
headlight switch off and the parking brake se1. lt should go off when you turn on the headlight switch and release the
parking brake. lf it comes on at any other time, do the control unit input test.
NOTE: When the daytime running lights are on, the high beam indicator will glow at half its normal intensity.
1. Remove the driver's dashboard lower cover (see page 20-60).
2, Disconnectthe l4Pconnector(A) from thedaytime running lightscontrol unit(B).
