HOW TO CHANGE THE DISPLAY FOR ODO/TRIP METER

The vehicle speed signal and the memory signals from the meter memory circuit are processed by the
combination meter and the mileage is displayed.

Switch modes with following procedure.

When trip transfer switch is pressed, trip meter display changes.

If trip reset switch is pressed for 1 second or more while trip A is
displayed, only trip A is reset. (Same with trip B.)

If the battery is disconnected, odometer mileage will be retained
but the trip meter is reset to 0.0.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION

Odo/trip meter segment, A/T indicator segment and ICC system display 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 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 0000.0, but the actual trip mileage will be retained. (Trip B operates the same way.)
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.

UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMPPFP:27760
System DescriptionAKS005N8

For the unified meter and A/C amp., the signal required for controlling the combination meter are inte-
grated in the A/C auto amp.

Unified meter and A/C amp. controls each operation for A/C auto amp. For information regarding A/C con-
trol, refer to AT C - 3 0 , "
AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL" in ATC section.

Unified meter and A/C amp. inputs necessary information for combination meter from each unit by CAN
communication and so on.

And unified meter and A/C amp. outputs these signals using communication line (TX, RX) between unified
meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.

The signals required for the distance to empty (DTE) display are centralized in the unified meter and A/C
amp., converted into data, and sent to the display unit (without NAVI) display control unit (with NAVI) using
CAN communication.

Other input signals are also sent to the ECM, TCM, AWD control unit, BCM, display unit (without NAVI)
and display control unit (with NAVI) using CAN communication.

The unified meter and A/C amp. have a CONSULT-II function (self-diagnostic results, CAN diagnostic
support monitor, data monitor).

Solution When Communication Error Between the Unified Meter & A/C Amp. and the Combi-
nation Meter
CAN Communication System DescriptionAKS007Z1
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.

Refer to LAN-6, "CAN Communication Unit" in “LAN SYSTEM”.
