Diagnosis by Error History
 When having a difficulty on the investigation of cause due to multiple errors with a reproducible malfunction,
turn ON the ignition switch from OFF mode after maki ng a memo of the item and number of time (or delete
“Error History”). Check “Error History” again afte r the malfunction was reproduced, and then perform diagno-
sis focusing on the item of which number of time increased.
 DVD-ROM error history may be restored because DV D-ROM cannot be temporarily read. (Driving on rough
road etc.) Then, erase the error history. (This is not a ma lfunction.) Perform service in “Action to take” if error
history are repeatedly indicated again.
Delete Unit Connection Log
Error item Possible cause Action to take
GPS Antenna Error GPS antenna connection malfunction
is detected.1. Start self-diagnosis, and make sure
of the result.
2. If any error is found, GO TO 3. If any
error is not found, delete the error
history and end the diagnosis. (This
is not a malfunction.)
3. Check if GPS antenna feeder line is snapped or pinched.
4. If the results from the above checkup
show no malfunction, replace GPS
antenna, and then restart self-diag-
nosis.
5. If self-diagnosis results still show any malfunction, replace NAVI control
unit.
FLASH-ROM Error Of Control Unit
NAVI control unit malfunction is detect-
ed.1. Start self-diagnosis, and make sure
of the result.
2. If any error is found, replace NAVI control unit. Refer to AV- 1 4 1 , "
Re-
moval and Installation of NAVI Con-
trol Unit". If any error is not found,
delete the error history and end the
diagnosis. (This is not a malfunc-
tion.)
Connection Of Gyro
GPS Communication Error
GPS malfunction is detected.If the symptoms such as the GPS receipt
malfunction occur, intermittent malfunc-
tion caused by strong radio interference
may be detected.
If the malfunction always occurs, replace
NAVI control unit.
GPS ROM Error
GPS RAM Error
GPS RTC Error
DVD-ROM Mechanism not Detected
 Malfunction is detected on DVD-ROM drive pickup lens in NAVI con-
trol unit.
 There is dirt and damage on the DVD-ROM. 1. Check if the inse
rted DVD-ROM is
specified for this navigation system,
and the DVD-ROM is dirty, scratched
or warped.
2. If the results from the above checkup show no malfunction, insert the
same DVD-ROM, and then restart
self-diagnosis.
3. If self-diagnosis results still show any
malfunction, replace NAVI control
unit.
