(Individual Diagnostic screens to confirma specific diagnostic screen.)
NOTE: If the vehicle left the factory in the factory
diagnostic mode, or if the navigation unit is replaced
you will see this screen every time you turn on the
ignition.
When a navigation unit is powered up for the first time
at the factory or after replacement with a new or
remanufactured navigation unit, the factory diagnosis
screen (In Line Diag) appears. Normally the factory
does the steps necessary to verify proper operation and
terminate the factory diagnostic.
Until the proper confirmation sequence is done, the
screen appears every time the vehicle is started.
Follow the steps below to prevent the screen from
showingupinthefuture:
 Press and hold the buttons (MENU, MAP/GUIDE, and CANCEL) for about 3 seconds. The Select Diagnosis
items screen appears.
 Press and hold the MAP/GUIDE button for 5 10 seconds. A screen with a Complete button,
appears.
 Press complete, then Return, and then shut the key off for 5 seconds. Do not disconnect the battery
during this period as the unit is saving the setting to
the SRAM memory. The In Line Diag should not
appear again.
 Restart the vehicle, and confirm normal operation by completing the TQI of the Navigation System Service
Bulletin. These section allows you to run a specific diagnostic
and allows additional setting choices for some screens
that are not shown when selecting an icon from the
System Links screen.
When you select the menu item Detail Information &
Setting menu, the main diagnosis menu is displayed.

When replacing the navigation unit, this function allows
the dealer to transfer the client’s personal data to the
new navigation unit. The transferred information
includes their Setup settings, and personal addresses.
The dealer inserts a PC card to the navigation unit, and
then selects the Save Users Memory function. The two
functions in this diagnostic screen are EXPORT and
IMPORT. EXPORT saves the client’s data to the PC card,
andIMPORTmovesthePCcardfilestothenew

Before starting this function, see the PC Card FAQs for
information regarding PC cards, and how to use this
function. 1. Select EXPORT button to move the client’s data
from the original navigation unit to the PC card.
Select YES on the Export User Data Confirmation
screen. The process takes only a couple of seconds.
The system stores two files on the card.
NOTE: If the EXPORT button is grayed out, check
the PC card’s edge connector, and the pins inside
the navigation unit (with a flashlight) for damage.
2. After installing the client’s original DVD in the new navigation unit, allow the system to boot up. Insert
the PC card in the new navigation unit and enter the
Save Users Memory in the navigation system
diagnostic mode.
3. Select IMPORT button to move the two files stored by the Export process from the PC card to the new
navigation unit. Select YES on the Import User Data
Confirmation screen. When the transfer is finished
(a few seconds) the system automatically reboots.
After the system reboots, remove the PC card from
the PC slot.
NOTE: If the IMPORT button is grayed out, check if
the Model and the Program Flash shown on the
Version screen are the same.

This screen is for factory use only, and should always
be set to OFF. Occasionally the DEMO setting is turned
ON when vehicles are being used at Auto Shows or
similar events. Turning this feature on, allows the
navigation system to automatically follow a route to a
destination when the vehicle is stationary. The Speed
changes the speed of the demo mode. This diagnostic allows you to independently test the
microphone and the navigation TALK and BACK
buttons. They are used to activate the voice control
system. The microphone is located near the map light
in the roof console. It is directional, and works only with
the voice coming from the driver’s seat.
 Press the navigation TALK button on the steering wheel, wait unit you hear a beep, and in a normal
voice say ‘‘testing’’. The TALK indicator on the screen
should momentarily turn green, and the text Now
Recording... should appear in yellow. If the talk
indicator shown on the screen does not briefly turn
green, check the wiring from the steering wheel
navigation TALK button to the navigation unit. If there
is no Mic Level movement when you speak, then you
should check the wires running from the microphone
in the roof console to the HandsFreeLink control unit
and the navigation unit. If the wires are OK, the
microphone must be faulty; replace the microphone
located in roof console (see page 23-358).

This diagnostic checks the yaw rate sensor in the
navigation unit. This device detects when the vehicle
turns, and repositions the vehicle position icon on the
map screen. For more detailed information, see the yaw
rate sensor theory of operation under System
Description (see page 23-283).
 Sensor indicates the voltage output from the yaw rate sensor. It should indicate about 2.500 V when the
vehicle is stopped.
 Offset is the reference voltage or standard within the yaw rate sensor. It also should indicate about 2.500 V
when the vehicle is stopped.
 A sensor output voltage LOWER than the Offset voltage indicates that the vehicle is turning to the
right.
A sensor output voltage HIGHER than the Offset
voltage indicates that the vehicle is turning to the left.
 The yaw rate offset, and sensor should both indicate about 2.500 V when the vehicle is stopped. If either
reads zero, or 5.000 V, replace the navigation unit.
 The yaw rate offset and sensor should be within / 0.01 V of each other when the vehicle is stopped.
The sensor value should change relative to the offset
as the vehicle turns while driving. If not, replace the
navigation unit.

tuning function. At initialization, this value starts at 6
and increases to 10 as the internal correction values
become more accurate.
 The settings CCW Cal Factor, CW Cal Factor, and Set are for factory use only. THIS SHOULD NEVER BE
ADJUSTED.

This diagnostic allows you to graphically display
problems with the yaw rate sensor.
 The ANG-Disp value accumulates any differences between the offset and sensor voltages (see Yaw
Rate diagnostic). When the sensor functions properly,
the random changes in these two voltages generally
cancels out, so the value is 0. However if one voltage
is consistently higher than the other, then the ANG-
Disp value accumulates the constant change.
 The Reset button temporarily clears the angular accumulation (ANG-Disp), and clears the display dots.
 Do not touch the CCW, CW, or Set buttons. These are used for factory setup only.
Two tests are explained below. For large problems with
the sensor values, the stationary test usually confirms
whether the sensor is defective. For yaw rate issues
related to driving, do the road test described below. 1. Stationary test: If the VP icon spins in place and the ANG-Disp value slowly increases or decreases in
value, the yaw rate sensor is defective. Replace the
navigation unit.
2. Road test: Drive the vehicle on a very straight road. Enter the diagnostic mode, select Yaw rate, and
touch the Tuning button. While driving down a
straight road, the white dots should trace a straight
line across the screen. However, if you are driving
on a straight road, and you notice the dots
constantly dropping down or heading up as you
drive, the navigation unit’s yaw sensor is defective.
You can touch Reset to clear ANG-Disp, and dotted
lines.
If either test above fails, please enter Yaw rate
sensor defective for the problem description, on
the Navigation core return form.
NOTE: The CCW, CW and Set buttons are disabled,
and cannot be activated. Use this screen to confirm that the navigation unit is
properly receiving input signals. Signals equal to (0) are
OFF, and signals equal to (1) are ON. If the value on the
display does not match the actual vehicle status, then
check the wire carrying the signal.
 VSP-Vehicle Speed Pulse from ECM/PCM (Connector A (24P) terminal No. 15)
a) OFF (0) when vehicle is not moving
b) ON (1) when vehicle is moving
The VSP comes from the ECM/PCM as a dedicated
signal. Internally, the navigation unit compares the
actual VP on the map against street data to adjust the
pulse to speed scaling factor. As this scaling factor
becomes more accurate, the Level gradually increases
from 0 to 10 (see the Tire Calibrate diagnostic screen).  BACK-Reverse indication from taillight relay (Connector C (8P) terminal No. 7)
a) OFF (0) when the shift lever is in any position other
than reverse
b) ON (1) when the shift lever is in reverse
The Back signal is used by the navigation unit to allow
the map screen to show the VP moving backwards
when in reverse. This signal is needed because the
Speed Pulse has no direction indication.

PC Card FAQs
QuestionAnswer
23-317
Wheredowebuytheflashmemoryor
adaptors, and what do we ask for?You need a PCMCIA type II adaptor and a flash memory chip. You can
purchase them at a computer, or office supply store. The card is the
same size and shape as the PC card in the HDS. Adaptors that accept
multiple flash types are not recommended.
What memory flash chips will work
with what adaptors? The flash memory devices that have been tested include Compact Flash
(CF), and ATA style (like the card in the HDS). Other card types and flash
memory chips may work, but have not been tested.
What capacity card do I need for this
function? A memory chip with capacity of 64 MB to 2 GB will work. The two files
moved to the PC card during export are less than a Megabyte in size.
Should the dealer have a dedicated PC
card for the Export and Import
navigation function? Yes, treat the PC card as a dedicated special tool that you can use any
time you need to transfer the navigation personal files to a new
navigation unit or ’09 and later vehicles.
What device can I use to maintain the
PC card, and delete files? Any computer store sells USB style card readers that accept the PC card,
and allow you to do file maintenance on your PC card. Most laptops will
also accept the PC card.
Can we move the client’s data to
different models? No, the files are model specific and will only load into a navigation unit
with the same part number.
Can we move the client’s data to the
same vehicle with a different software
version (like moving from version 4.41
to version 4.51)? The client’s files can only be transferred to a new navigation unit, if the
Model and the Program Flash shown on the Version screen are the same.
Files cannot be transferred to the different model and different versions.
Will other files on the PC card like
images or music files prevent the
Export/Import function from working? No, the system simply adds two small files that are recognized by the
new navigation unit when performing the import function. However, it
the PC card is full, the Export function won’t work correctly.
Do I have to delete the files on the PC
card after each transfer of the
personal data? After the transfer of personal data to the new navigation unit, the files
remain on the PC card. Since this is confidential information, Acura
recommends deleting these files after the transfer use. Please note that
each time you export navigation files of the same model and version, the
files are overwritten. Over time the PC card accumulates two files for
each version of the 8 or so Acura navigation models.
It the memory card needs formatting,
what format should I use? It is unlikely that the PC card will ever need formatting, however, if it
does, use the FAT (file allocation table) file system.
I can’t enter the navigation diagnostic
mode to do the Export/Import function.
How can I transfer the personal data? Some internal navigation unit ECU failures may make it impossible to
use the Export/Import function.

QuestionAnswer

System Diagnostic Mode (cont’d)










Why wont the Export or Import
functions work? What do I check as
part of troubleshooting?
The card may not be fully inserted into the slot. Eject the PC card, and
inspect for warping or damage to the edge connector. Never use
excessive force to insert a PC card. This can damage the pins in the
rear of the slot.
The PC card may not contain files that are recognized by the new
navigation unit. Navigation data can only be transferred between
navigation units with the same Model code, and with the same navi
Program flash version.
The flash memory chip type may not be accepted by the system. Only
Compact Flash and ATA cards have been tested.
The card’s PCMCIA adaptor may prevent a known-
good PC card from
being recognized. Avoid multi-slot type PCMCIA adaptors that accept
several different flash memory types.
The card may be full and as a result the files are stored, but without
any data. Export and import appear to function, but move nothing.
Delete unused files from the PC card.
There may not be any files on the PC card. If the PC card has a write
protection switch, make sure it is turned off before using the Export
function.
Although flash memory chips are reliable, occasionally they develop
bad sectors or other formatting errors that prevents them from
accepting files. The PC card should be reformatted using the FAT
format.
The PC card may have been formatted using the format NTFS. Only the
FAT format is accepted by the system.
Hard Disc Drive (HDD) cards may not work properly in the system and
can overheat or quit functioning, particularly in a hot vehicle. They are
not recommended.
Before performing the Import function, ensure that the original
navigation DVD is loaded into the new navigation unit and working
properly.
