OK. lf the EPS indicator stays on or blinks. go to
step 12.
NO Go to step 2.
Turn the ignition switch OFF, then ON (ll) again,
and watch the brake system indicator,
Does the brake system indicator come on?
YES-Go to step 3.

Gauges
Self-diagnostic Procedure
The gauge assembly has a self-diagnosis function.. The Beeper Drive Circuit Check. The Indicator Drive Circuit ChecL. The LCD Segments Check. The Gauges Drive Circuit Check (Speedometer, Tachometer, Fuel gauge, Coolant temperature gauge). The Communication Line Check (the coolanttemperature signal line between the gauge and ECM)
NOTE: Indicators are also controlled via the communication line.
Entering the self-diagnosis f unction:
Before doing the self-diagnosis function, check the No. 9 (10A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box and No. 10 {7.5A)fuse in the under'dash fuse/relay box.
1. Push and hold the trip/reset button.
2. Turn the lighting switch ON.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
4. Within 5 sec., turn the lighting switch OFF, then ON and OFF again.5. Within 5 sec., release the trip/reset button, then push and release the button four times reDeatedlv.
NOTE:. While in the self-diagnosis mode, the dash lights brightness controller operates normally.'Whileintheself-diagnosismode,thetrip/resetbuttonisusedtostartthebeeperdrivecircuitcheckandthegauge
drive cicuit check.. lf the vehicle speed exceeds 1.2 mph 12 km/h) orthe ignition switch is tu rned OFF, the self,diag nosis mode ends.
