How to Check Error History

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda Pilot, 2010 Honda Pilot, and 2009 Honda Pilot. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Error History feature is to record intermittent navigation issues that occur while the customer is using the system. 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+CANCEL buttons for 3 seconds, or connect the SCS service connector to the navigation service connector located under the driver's seat
  3. When the Select Diagnosis Items menu is displayed, select Detail Information & Setting.

  4. When the navigation unit has hard 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 DTC codes, select the error history icon.
