2. The diagnosis tests the following:

• Most of the wires connecting the external navigation components shown in the block diagram.
• The results from the various components shown in the block diagram.
• The audio-navigation unit checks the microphone by listening to the bong sound produced by the audio-navigation unit from the speakers when the diagnosis is started. This requires that the audio system be operating normally.

NOTE: By selecting the Help icon, you can see a description for each color.

*: The F-CAN icon and the B-CAN icon turns red when the vehicle is in ACCESSORY mode. Check the System Links with the engine running, and if the F-CAN icon and the B-CAN icon turns green, the system is OK at this time. If they remain red, check for and troubleshoot and DTCs before continuing.

In some cases, you may have to restart the engine for the indication to change. After you repair the affected component or harness, repeat this diagnosis.

If the vehicle left the factory in the factory diagnostic mode, you will see this screen every time you turn the vehicle to the ON mode. Sometimes this screen also appears after you replace the audio-navigation unit with a new or remanufactured unit.
