How to Check Error History (Navigation DTCs)

NOTE: The navigation DTCs cannot be retrieved with the HDS.

The Error History feature is to record intermittent navigation issues that occur while using the system by setting navigation DTCs. Sometimes the customer complaint cannot be duplicated. The error history may record the information needed to diagnose the problem. To check the error history:

  1. Start the engine.
  2. Press and hold the MAP/GUIDE, MENU, and CANCEL buttons for 3 seconds.
  3. When the Select Diagnosis Items menu is displayed, select Self-Diagnosis Mode.

  4. When the audio-navigation unit has hard error codes, the Error History icon appears yellow when the Self-Diagnosis mode (System links) screen is displayed. When no hard errors are stored, the icon appears gray. To view the errors with their navigation DTC codes, select the error history icon.
