    HINT:

    • If the system cannot enter the diagnosis mode, inspect each AVC-LAN communication signal and repair or replace problem parts.
    • Even if the malfunction symptom is not confirmed, check for diagnostic trouble codes. This is because the system stores past diagnostic trouble codes.
    • Refer to the detailed description on the diagnostic screen, as necessary (see DIAGNOSIS DISPLAY DETAILED DESCRIPTION  ).
    • Check the diagnostic trouble code and inspect the area the code indicates.

      HINT:

    THERE IS AN APPLICABLE SYMPTOM CODE IN THE TABLE (GO TO STEP   10 ) 

    THERE IS NO APPLICABLE SYMPTOM CODE IN THE TABLE (GO TO STEP 9) 

  9. CHECK THE ECU TERMINAL ARRANGEMENT BASED ON THE MALFUNCTION SYMPTOM 
  10. CHECK THE CIRCUIT
