Hard Key

This diagnostic tests the joystick, and the buttons that surround it. For this model, the joystick and buttons utilize the GA-Net bus for communication to the navigation control unit.

To complete the test, touch each button, and move the joystick to each indicated position. As each function is tested, the corresponding button on the display should highlight. To exit, push in and hold the joystick.
