Meter/Gauges Operation and Odo/Trip MeterEKS00EH7
SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
Odo/trip meter segment operation can be checked in self-diagnosis mode.
Meters/gauges can be checked in self-diagnosis mode.
HOW TO ALTERNATE DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn the ignition switch ON, and switch the odo/trip meter to “trip A” or “trip B”.
NOTE:
If the diagnosis function is activated with the trip meter A displayed, the mileage on the trip meter A will
indicate 0.0 miles, but the actual trip mileage will be retained. (Trip B operates the same way.)
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. While pushing the odo/trip meter switch, turn ignition switch ON again.
4. Make sure that the trip meter displays “0.0”.
5. Push the odo/trip meter switch at least 3 times. (Within 7 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON.)
6. All the segments on the odo/trip meter illuminate, and simultaneously the low-fuel warning lamp indicator
illuminates. At this time, the unified meter control unit is turned to diagnosis mode.
NOTE:
If any of the segments is not displayed, replace the combination
meter.

7. Push the odo/trip meter switch. Each meter/gauge should indi-
cate as shown in the figure while pushing odo/trip meter switch.
(At this time, the low-fuel warning lamp goes off.)
How to Proceed With Trouble DiagnosisEKS00EH8
1. Confirm the symptom or customer complaint.
2. Perform diagnosis according to diagnosis flow. Refer to DI-20, "
Diagnosis Flow" .
3. According to the trouble diagnosis chart, repair or replace the cause of the symptom. Refer to DI-22,
"Trouble Diagnosis Chart for Symptom" .
4. Does the meter operate normally? If so, go to 5. If not, go to 2.
5. INSPECTION END
Diagnosis FlowEKS00EH9
1. CHECK WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATION
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Make sure that warning lamp (such as MIL and oil pressure warning lamp) illuminate.
Does warning lamp illuminate?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Check ignition power supply circuit of combination meter. Refer to DI-21, "
Power Supply and
Ground Circuit Inspection" .
2. CHECK SELF-DIAGNOSIS OPERATION
Perform combination meter self-diagnosis. Refer to DI-19, "
SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION" .
Does self-diagnosis function operate?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Check battery power supply of combination meter and ground system. Refer to PG-75, "
FUSE
BLOCK - JUNCTION BOX (J/B)" .
3. CHECK ODO/TRIP METER OPERATION
Check segment display status of odo/trip meter.
Is the display normal?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Replace combination meter.
