- Rotate the interface dial to select the icon you want to diagnose. Press the interface dial to see the details of that diagnostic function.
The System Links function runs automatically and displays a flashing message at the bottom of the screen reminding you to have the engine running for the test. The diagnosis tests the following:
- Most of the wires connecting the navigation components that are shown in the block diagram.
- The results from the various components shown in the block diagram.
- The audio-navigation unit tests 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.
When the diagnosis finishes, the icons turn different colors based on their test status. The color definitions are shown below and can also be seen by selecting Help on the System Links screen.
The indication on the screen may not change until you exit and reenter the Self-Diagnosis mode. 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.
Each icon color is explained in the table.
| Icon Colors | Description |
|---|---|
| Green | The system ran a diagnosis and the results are OK. |
| Red | Errors that may require replacement of hardware or harness. Examples are connection error or memory diagnosis errors. Troubleshoot for navigation DTCs. |
| Yellow | Errors that do not require hardware replacement, such as an open display cover, leaving the vehicle in ACC mode, or because of a missing accessory. |
| White | The diagnosis is running. The screen functions are locked out while the diagnosis runs. |
| Gray | The system cannot automatically check this function. You have to select the diagnosis item and manually do additional testing, like checking the navigation buttons in the Hard Key test. When you complete the Hard Key test and return to the System Links menu, the gray icon turns green. |

By selecting the HELP icon, you can see a description for each color.
