INTEGRATED DISPLAY SYSTEMPFP:28090
System DescriptionNKS003IZ
For system operation information, refer to Owner's Manual.
INTEGRATED DISPLAY SYSTEM

Each control unit that comprises the system is connected with a communication circuit. It transmits/
receives data signals including request signals and response signals, and controls the system.

The display control unit transmits/receives data signals to/from each control unit with CAN communica-
tion. It performs an arithmetical operation on fuel information values by using data obtained from the con-
trol units, and then displays the calculated values on the screen.

The display control unit receives door switch signals from the BCM with CAN communication, and dis-
plays a warning on the screen when driving over the set speed with a door half-shut.

The display control unit receives vehicle speed signals that are transmitted from the unified meter and A/
C amp., performs an arithmetical operation on drive information values, and then displays the calculated
values on the screen.

The images displayed on the monitor screen contain display control unit-generated RGB images.

The display control unit controls image switching and image quality adjustments by communications with
the display.

Angle
Adjustment This mode is used to correct difference between actual turning angle of a
vehicle and turning angle of the vehicle mark on the display.
Speed
Calibration Under ordinary conditions, the navigation system distance measuring
function will automatically compensate for minute decreases in wheel and
tire diameter caused by tire wear or low-pressure. Speed Calibration can
immediately restore system accuracy in cases such as when distance cal-
ibration is needed because of the use of tire chains.
Error History Malfunctions that occurred in the past are displayed, along with the num-
ber of times each has occurred. Time and location when/where the errors
occurred are also displayed.

VOICE GUIDANCE
An indirect route is suggested. If there are restrictions (such as one-way
streets) on roads close to the starting point or
destination, the system may suggest an indirect
route. Adjust the location of the starting point or desti-
nation.
The system may suggest an indirect route
because route calculation does not take into
consideration some areas such as narrow
streets (grey roads). Reset the destination to a main or ordinary
road, and recalculate the route.
The landmark information does
not correspond to the actual infor-
mation. This may be caused by insufficient or incorrect
data on the DVD-ROM. Updated information will be included in the
next version of the DVD-ROM.
The suggested route does not
exactly connect with the starting
point, waypoints, or destination. There is no data for route calculation closer to
these locations. Set the starting point, waypoints and destina-
tion on a main road, and perform route calcula-
tion.
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Voice guidance is not available. Voice guidance is only available at certain inter-
sections marked with . In some cases, voice
guidance is not available even when the vehicle
should make a turn. This is not malfunction.
The vehicle has deviated from the suggested
route. Go back to the suggested route or request
route calculation again.
Voice guidance is set to off. Turn on the voice guidance.
Route guidance is set to off. Turn on the route guidance.
The guidance content does not
correspond to the actual condition. The content of voice guidance may vary,
depending on the types of intersections where
turns are made. Follow all traffic rules and regulations.

BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE)PFP:284B2
System DescriptionNKS0033Z
BCM (Body Control Module) controls the operation of various electrical units installed on the vehicle.
BCM FUNCTION
BCM has combination switch reading function for reading the operation of combination switches (light, wiper,
washer and turn signal) in addition to a function for controlling the operation of various electrical components.
Also it has an interface function allowing it to receive signals from the unified meter and A/C amp., and send
signals to ECM using CAN communication.
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Description

BCM reads combination switch (lighting switch, wiper switch) status, and controls various electrical com-
ponent according to the result.

BCM reads information of a maximum of 20 switches by combining five output terminals (OUTPUT 1-5)
and five input terminals (INPUT 1-5).
Operation Description

BCM activates transistors of output terminals (OUTPUT 1-5) periodically, and allows current to flow in
turn.

If any (1 or more) switches are turned ON, circuit of output terminals (OUTPUT 1-5) and input terminals
(INPUT 1-5) becomes active.

At this time, transistors of output terminals (OUTPUT 1-5) are activated to allow current to flow. When volt-
age of input terminals (INPUT 1-5) corresponding to that switch changes, interface in BCM detects volt-
age change, and BCM determines that switch is ON.

CUSTOMER INTERVIEW
Interview the customer if possible, to determine the conditions that exist when the noise occurs. Use the Diag-
nostic Worksheet during the interview to document the facts and conditions when the noise occurs and any
customer's comments; refer to BL-11, "
Diagnostic Worksheet" . This information is necessary to duplicate the
conditions that exist when the noise occurs.

The customer may not be able to provide a detailed description or the location of the noise. Attempt to
obtain all the facts and conditions that exist when the noise occurs (or does not occur).

If there is more than one noise in the vehicle, be sure to diagnose and repair the noise that the customer
is concerned about. This can be accomplished by test driving the vehicle with the customer.

After identifying the type of noise, isolate the noise in terms of its characteristics. The noise characteristics
are provided so the customer, service adviser and technician are all speaking the same language when
defining the noise.

Squeak —(Like tennis shoes on a clean floor)
Squeak characteristics include the light contact/fast movement/brought on by road conditions/hard sur-
faces=higher pitch noise/softer surfaces=lower pitch noises/edge to surface=chirping

Creak—(Like walking on an old wooden floor)
Creak characteristics include firm contact/slow movement/twisting with a rotational movement/pitch
dependent on materials/often brought on by activity.

Rattle—(Like shaking a baby rattle)
Rattle characteristics include the fast repeated contact/vibration or similar movement/loose parts/missing
clip or fastener/incorrect clearance.

Knock —(Like a knock on a door)
Knock characteristics include hollow sounding/sometimes repeating/often brought on by driver action.

Tick—(Like a clock second hand)
Tick characteristics include gentle contacting of light materials/loose components/can be caused by driver
action or road conditions.

Thump—(Heavy, muffled knock noise)
Thump characteristics include softer knock/dead sound often brought on by activity.

Buzz—(Like a bumble bee)
Buzz characteristics include high frequency rattle/firm contact.

Often the degree of acceptable noise level will vary depending upon the person. A noise that you may
judge as acceptable may be very irritating to the customer.

Weather conditions, especially humidity and temperature, may have a great effect on noise level.
