DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
Error codes over tuner and connected equipment are displayed on the screen of tuner.
(a) Diagnosis start-up
For shifting to diagnosis mode, push ºDISCº switch 3 times with pressing º1º and º6º of PRESET switch
at the same time while the audio power is OFF and ACC is ON.
To exit from diagnosis mode, press ºDISCº switch for 2 seconds or turn the ignition key OFF.
(When º1-190º is displayed, the mode is transferred to LAN check mode.)
(b) 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 ºUPº or ºDOWNº switch. In LAN check
mode, by pressing º5º 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)Equipment name
190Radio receiver assembly (Audio head unit)
240CD changer (in Luggage room)
360CD changer (in center console and glove compartment box)

(c) System check
When pressing º1º 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 re-
sults.(ºSYSº (showing the system is under detection) is displayed.)
Perform the operation shown in the following illustration, then read the result of the inspection.

HINT:
It sometimes takes approx. 40 secs. till the system inspection is completed.
The chart below is an example of when diagnosis code º21º appears on the physical address (190)
equipment. (ROM error occurs on the radio receiver.)
The smaller code numbers (physical address) are displayed in order (code No., diagnosis code, sup-
port code of diagnosis code (object equipment)).
When no error is detected in the system, º00º is displayed.
When an error code is detected, up to 6 codes per one system are displayed. Pressing TUNE ºUPº
or ºDOWNº switches the display.
In the system check mode, when pressing º6º of PRESET switch the mode returns to LAN check mode.
(d) Diagnosis memory
(1) In LAN check mode, when pressing º2º of PRESET switch the mode turns to the diagnosis
memory mode. (ºCODEº is displayed.)
The results of self diagnosis performed over tuner and connected equipment are memorized and
displayed.
(2) Perform the operation shown in the following illustration, then read the result of the inspection.
HINT:
The smaller code numbers (physical address) are displayed in order (code No. , periodic communica-
tion number when error occurs, diagnosis code, and support code of diagnosis code (object equip-
ment)).
When no error is detected in the system, º00º is displayed. When an error code is detected, up to 6
codes per one system are displayed. Pressing TUNE ºUPº or ºDOWNº switches the display. Each diag-
nosis code is same as code in the system check mode.
When pressing º6º of PRESET switch, the mode returns to LAN check mode.
The following illustration below is an example of when diagnosis code ºD1º appears on the code (190)
and (240 or 360) equipment. (Communication error occurs between the radio receiver and CD chang-
er.)

(e) Diagnosis memory clear
(1) After error is fixed, start up the diagnosis mode.
(2) Continue pressing preset switch º5º for 2 secs. (CLr is displayed.)
(3) Press the preset switch º2º and transfer to the diagnosis memory mode and check that the normal
code (00) is output.

NOTICE:
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 re-
placement part (spare part).
HINT:
This inspection procedure is a simple troubleshooting which should be carried out on the vehicle during sys-
tem operation and was prepared on the assumption of system component troubles (except for the wires and
connectors, etc.).
Always inspect the trouble taking the following items into consideration.
