Navigation System
Symptom Troubleshooting (cont’d)
NOTE:
 Check the vehicle battery condition first.
 The system will not operate without the 4-digit security (anti-theft) code. Follow the this procedure.
(After 10 consecutive tries, you must cycle the key to
continue trying)
 The Navigation System Diagnosis and Core Return Form is available online, under Job aids, and can be
printed out for recording this information. This
information will help the reman facility determine
what caused the failure.
 Check the connectors for poor connections or loose terminals.
 Before troubleshooting, make sure you have the anti- theft codes for the navigation system.
 Verity that the correct navigation unit is installed for this model. Go into the Diagnostic mode, and use
Version (see page 23-149).
 Make sure that the correct navigation DVD color and version are installed.
 Check any official Honda service website for more service information about the navigation system.
1. Go into the System diagnosis menu (see page 23-135), select Unit check, and then Navi ECU. A
brief diagnostic runs for 20 seconds, and the serial
number is displayed.
Go to step 4.
Go to step 2.
2. Remove the navigation unit (see page 23-155).
3. Check the serial number on the label on the underside of the navigation unit.
Go to step 4.
Replace the navigation unit (see page 23-155). 4. Using the serial number, look up the navigation
security code in the Interactive Network. (click:
Service, Vehicle Information, Anti-Theft code
Inquiry, and then select Navigation from the
Product drop down box). Enter the serial number.
Go to step 5.
Call the Warranty Department to obtain the
code (the telephone number is in the PDI service
bulletin).Thengotostep5.
5. Check that the obtained code works to bypass the code screen in the navigation system.
The system is OK at this time. Return the
vehicle to the client, and give them the anti-theft
code.
Go to step 6.
6. Try entering four zeros (0000) in place for the code.
Replace the navigation unit (see page 23-155),
and enter Security code is 0000 in the problem
description field of the core return form.
Replace the navigation unit (see page 23-155),
and enter in Won’t take security code (as proof,
enclose the sticker that contains the Serial number
and the Code) in the problem description field of
the core return form.

 This diagnostic step tests the cables connecting the
navigation components. Ensure that the ignition
switch is in the ON (II) position. When the diagnosis
begins, you hear a bong sound. The system is in a
Detecting mode, and is waiting for all the items in
white to be tested. This includes the voice control
switch (navigation TALK/BACK buttons), and the
microphone. Press the navigation TALK button on the
steering wheel, and in a normal voice, say ‘‘testing’’.
The Talk indicator on the screen should turn green,
and the voice level indicator should move to at least
the 6th bar to pass. Next, press the navigation BACK
button. The Cancel indicator should turn green.
 If all of the communication lines connecting the system components, and the navigation TALK/BACK
buttons/microphone check out OK (all block diagram
items green), then the OK indicator turns green.
 If there is a problem with the system, the faulty system component item turns red, and the screen
shows NG in red. Use the troubleshooting index, and
other diagnostic screens to help locate the problem.
 The indicator on the screen may not change until you cycle the ignition switch. After repairing the affected
cable or system, repeat this diagnostic.
NOTE: Green boxes and green OK indicate that the
communications lines (cables) are intact. This
diagnostic does not necessarily imply that the
individual components are functioning properly. For
instance, the GPS antenna wire may be crushed, but
still show as green. A road test, or other diagnostic
maybenecessarytofindtheproblem.  Select Return to return to the Diagnostic Menu, or the
Exit Diag button to exit.
NOTE: The Mic Level indicator must reach the 6th bar
or greater to pass the test.

This screen is for factory use only. It allows adjustment
of the GPS time. This display updates in real time.
 GPS Time is the time as received from the GPS satellites. It is in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
 Date, Hour, Minute, and Set should not be used.
This screen allows the navigation system to drive a
route, when the vehicle is stationary. Typical
applications include auto shows, and other events.
This feature allows a visitor to enter a destination, and
see the system drive to the destination. No speed signal
is needed.  To initiate the mode, select ON.
 Changing the speed rate in ms (millisec onds) is
optional, and represents the time between updates of
the VP (vehicle position) movement.
– When you increase the rate, the VP slows down because it is updated (moved) at a slower rate.
– When you decrease the rate, VP is faster because it is updated (moved) more frequently.
– 1500 ms is VP at its slowest in demo mode.
– 150 ms is VP at its fastest in demo mode (Default).
 At key off, the setting automatically returns to the default of Off. This diagnostic screen 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 ceiling. It is directional, and works best if the
voice is coming from the drivers 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 on the screen does not briefly turn green,
then check the wiring from the navigation TALK
button to the navigation unit.
 If there is no Mic Level movement when you speak, then you should check the wire running from the
microphone to the navigation unit.
 If the mic level bar is full or almost full wit hout you
speaking or other back ground noise, replace the
microphone and recheck.
 PressthenavigationBACKbuttononthesteering wheel. The Cancel indicator on the screen should
momentarily turn green. If it does not briefly turn
green, then check the wiring from the steering wheel
navigation BACK button to the navigation unit.
NOTE: The mic level should reach the 6th bar.
