NOTE:
Check the vehicle battery condition first.
Make sure that the correct DVD color and version are installed.
Check any official Honda service website for more service information about the navigation system.
Check the Navigation System Manual for a list of common DVD screen error messages and the
probable cause.
Go into the Diagnostic Menu, and use the Car Status test (see page 23-141) to check the status of the
display.
1. Check the DVD-ROM reading surface for scratches.
Replace the DVD-ROM.
If the problem occurs occasionally when the
system is cold, this is normal. If the problem occurs
frequently when driving, replace the navigation
unit (see page 23-155). 1. When a navigation unit is powered up for the first
time at the factory, the factory diagnosis screen (In
Line Diag) appears. Normally the factory performs
the steps necessary to verify proper operation and
terminate the factory diagnostic. Until the proper
confirmation sequence is performed, the screen
will appear every time the vehicle is started.
2. Follow the steps to prevent the screen from showingupinthefuture:
Hold down the buttons (Menu, Map/Guide, and Cancel) for about 5 seconds (the Select Diagnosis
Items screen appears).
Hold down the Map/Guide button for 5 10 seconds (A screen with a Complete button
appears).
Touch Complete, and then the Return button (the system may re-boot).
Restart the vehicle, and confirm normal operation by completing the PDI of the
navigation system Service Bulletin.
Are there scratches?

NOTE:
Check the connectors for poor connections or loose terminals.
Before troubleshooting, get the navigation system anti-theft code, then write down the audio presets.
After troubleshooting, re-enter the anti-theft code, and re-initialize the navigation system, then enter the
audio presets.
Check for aftermarket accessories that use the same power circuit. A feedback can cause this problem.
1. Remove the key from the ignition.
Go to step 2.
The system is OK at this time.
2. The vehicle may have been used as a demonstration vehicle at an event like an auto
show. In these events, power is often jumpered to
the navigation system so that the ignition key is not
needed in the vehicle. At the end of the show, the
jumper wire may not have been removed. Check
the navigation unit connector A (17P) for a non-
factory jumper wire in series with the factory cable.
Remove the jumper wire, and re-test. Return
the jumper wire to Tech Line.
Go to step 3.
3. Check if the audio unit works.
Troubleshoot the ACC circuit for a short to
power with another circuit.
Replace the navigation unit (see page 23-155). NOTE:
Check the vehicle battery condition first.
Verify that the correct navigation unit is installed for this model. Go into the Diagnostic mode and use
Version (see page 23-149).
