Wheel Alignment
The suspension can be adjusted for front camber, front
toe, and rear toe. However, each of these adjustments
are related to each other. For example, when you adjust
camber, the toe will change. Therefore, you must adjust
the front wheel alignment whenever you adjust camber
or toe.
For proper inspection and adjustment of the wheel
alignment, do these checks: 1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement.
2. Make sure the suspension is not modified.
3. Make sure the fuel tank is full, and that the spare tire, the jack, and the tools are in place on the
vehicle.
4. Check the tire size and tire pressure.
5. Check the runout of the wheels and tires (see page 18-9). 6. Check the suspension ball joints (Hold a tire with
your hands, and move it up and down and right and
left to check for movement).
7. Before doing alignment inspections, be sure to remove all extra weight from the vehicle, and no
one should be inside the vehicle (driver or
passengers).
8. Bounce the vehicle up and down several times to stabilize the suspension.
9. Check that the steering column is set at the center tilt and telescopic position.
Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions. 1. Check the caster angle.
If the measurement is within specifications,measure the camber angle.
If the measurement is not within specifications, check for bent or damaged suspension
components.

Symptom DiagnosisSelf-Inertial Navigation Limitations
23-90Navigation System
General Troubleshooting Information
Refer to the Navigation System manual for the
navigation system operating procedures.
The navigation system has a coded theft protection
circuit. Be sure you have the client’s anti-theft security
code before;
Disconnecting the battery
Disconnecting the navigation unit A (17P) and C (12P) connector
Removing the No. 23 (10 A) fuse from the under-hood fuse/relay box
After service, reconnect power to the navigation unit,
and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Enter the 4-digit
anti-theft security codes, then select Done.
If the code cannot be found, use the interactive Network
(iN) to look it up. You can view the serial number in one
of the Navi ECU diagnostic screen (see page 23-139).
Alternatively, you can find the serial number from the
navigation unit in the dash.
When replacing the navigation unit, be sure to give the
client the new anti-theft security code.
Certain circumstances and system limitations can result
in occasional vehicle positioning errors. Some clients
may think this indicates a problem with the navigation
system when, in fact, the system is normal. Keep the
following items in mind when interviewing clients
about symptoms of the navigation system. The limitations of the self-inertial portion of the
navigation system (the yaw rate sensor and the vehicle
speed signal) can cause some discrepancies between
the vehicle’s actual position and the indicated vehicle
position (GPS vehicle position).
The following circumstances may cause vehicle
positioning errors:
Moving the vehicle with the engine stopped and the vehicle stopped, such as by ferry or tow truck, or if
the vehicle is spun on a turn table.
Tire slippage, changes in tire rolling diameters, and some driving situations may cause discrepancies in
travel distances. Examples of this include:
– Continuous tire slippage on a slippery surface.
– Driving with snow chains mounted.
– Abnormal tire pressure.
– Incorrect tire size.
– Frequent lane changes across a wide highway.
– Continuous driving on a straight or gently curving highway.
Tolerances in the system and map inaccuracies will sometimes limit how precisely the vehicle position is
indicated. Examples of this include:
– Driving on roads not shown on the map (map matching is not possible).
– Driving on a road that winds in one direction, such as a loop bridge, an interchange, or a spiral parking
garage.
– Driving on a road with a series of sharp hair-pin turns.
– Driving near a gradual highway exit or transition.
– Driving on one of two close parallel roads.
– Making many 90 degree turns.
– The direction to destination icon or the destination icon shown or the map may be up to several
hundred feet away from the actual location.

General Troubleshooting Information
Refer to the navigation system manual for the

The navigation system and audio unit have a coded

Disconnecting the battery.
Disconnecting the navigation unit connector A (24P) and C (8P).
Removing the No. 23 (10 A) fuse from the under-hood fuse/relay box.
After service, reconnect power to the navigation unit,
and turn the ignition switch to ON (II). Enter the 4-digit
anti-theft security code, then select Done.
If the code cannot be found, use the interactive Network
(iN) to look it up. You can view the serial number in one
of the ECU Info diagnostic screens (see page 23-305).
Alternatively, you can find the serial number on the
underside label which is located on the navigation unit
in the trunk.
When replacing the navigation unit, be sure to give the
customer the new anti-theft security code.

– Driving on one of two close parallel roads
– Making many 90 degree turns
The GPS cannot detect the vehicle’s position or
elevation during the following instances: For the first 5 to 10 minutes after reconnecting the battery (this process can take as long as 45 minutes).
When the satellite signals are blocked by tall buildings, mountains, tunnels, large trees, inside
parking structures or large trucks.
When the GPS antenna is blocked by metallic window tinting or by an object placed above it in the
vehicle. The GPS antenna requires a clear
unobstructed view of the sky.
When there is no satellite signal output (signal output is sometimes stopped for sate llite servicing).
When the satellite signals are blocked by the operation of some electronic aftermarket accessories
including, but not limited to non-OEM in-dash
entertainment units (radio, CD players/changers,
radar detectors and theft recovery systems) and cell
phones placed near the navigation system.
