Self-diagnostic Function

NOTE: This procedure should be used only if HDS is unavailable.

To run the self-diagnostic function, do the following:

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  2. Press and hold the HFL BACK button for more than 5 seconds.
  3. When the HandsFreeLink system enters the self-diagnostic function, the following will occur.
    • If the system has not completed testing for DTCs, the HandsFreeLink system says "The hands free system test is in progress".
    • If there is no DTC, the HandsFreeLink system says "The hands free system is OK".
    • If there is any DTC, the HandsFreeLink system says "The hands free system needs to be serviced".
    • The self-diagnostic function ends when the units returns to idle state.
NOTE: The self-diagnostic function can only be initiated while the HFL is in an idle state.
