DISPLAY DIAGNOSIS

When RGB signal error occurred in the RGB system, tone of the color bar will change as follows.

When the color of the screen looks unusual, refer to AV-137, "Color of RGB Image is Not Proper (All
Screen Looks Bluish)" , AV- 1 3 8 , "Color of RGB Image is Not Proper (All Screen Looks Reddish)" and AV-
139, "Color of RGB Image is Not Proper (All Screen Looks Yellowish)" .
VEHICLE SIGNALS

A comparison check can be made of each actual vehicle signal
and the signals recognized by the system.
CAUTION:
In case of confirming light signal, set D/N mode to ON/OFF
of lighting switch (normal setting).

OFF: D (Day mode)

ON: N (Night mode)
Unless above setting, light signal (ON/OFF) may not be
accurately displayed.

is turned to ON until “Self-diagnosis” is completed.

Revision: October 20052005 QX56
If an error occurred before the ignition switch was turned to ON and does not occur again until the “Self-diag-
nosis” is completed, the diagnosis result will be judged normal. Therefore, those errors in the past which can-
not be found by the “Self-diagnosis” must be found by diagnosing the “History of Errors”.
The History of Errors displays the time and place of the most recent occurrence of that error. However, take
note of the following points.

Correct time of the error occurrence may not be displayed when the GPS antenna substrate within the
NAVI control unit has malfunctioned.

Place of the error occurrence is represented by the position of the current-location mark at the time when
the error occurred. If the current-location mark has deviated from the correct position, then the place of
the error occurrence may be located correctly.

The maximum number of occurrences which can be stored is 50. For the 51st and later occurrences, the
displayed number remains 50.
When a reproducible malfunction occurred but its cause cannot be identified because several errors are
present, record the item, number and place (longitude/latitude) of error occurrence (or delete the History of
Errors), then turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON to reproduce the malfunction. Check the History of Errors
to find the items which show an increased number of occurrences, and diagnose the item.
