A/C and AV Switch Self-Diagnosis FunctionNKS003AT
It can check ON/OFF operation of each switch in the A/C and AV switch and diagnose the input signals to the
audio steering wheel switch.
STARTING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch from OFF to ACC.
2. Within 10 seconds press and hold the switches “1” and “6” simultaneously for 3 seconds.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The following are checked:
All the indicators (LED) in the A/C and AV switch.
Continuity of the switches by sounding the buzzer when the A/C and AV switch and audio steering switch
is pressed.
Continuity of harness between A/C and AV switch and audio steering switch.
NOTE:
Rear window defogger switch operation is not checked. (No beep sound even under normal status)
EXITING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
Turn ignition switch OFF.

Trouble DiagnosisNKS003LC
The majority of the audio malfunctions are the result of outside causes (bad CD, electromagnetic interfer-
ence, etc.). Check the symptoms below to diagnose the malfunction.
The vehicle itself can be a source of noise if noise prevention parts or electrical equipment is malfunction-
ing. Check if noise is caused and/or changed by engine speed, ignition switch turned to each position, and
operation of each piece of electrical equipment, and then determine the cause.
Make sure that other operation except audio system can be performed with A/C and AV switch. If these
operations are inoperative with A/C and AV switch, refer to AV- 8 4 , "
Unable to Operate System with A/C
and AV Switch" (Without navigation system), or AV- 1 3 9 , "Unable to Operate System with A/C and AV
Switch" (With navigation system).
Refer to "SERVICE BULLETIN ITB04-055" for the diagnosis of satellite radio.
NOTE:
Noise resulting from variations in field strength, such as fading noise and multi-path noise, or external noise
from trains and other sources. It is not a malfunction.
Fading noise: This noise occurs because of variations in the field strength in a narrow range due to moun-
tains or buildings blocking the signal.
Multi-path noise: This noise results from a time difference between the broadcast waves directly from the
station arriving at the antenna and the waves reflected by mountains or buildings.

Locking CD Auto-Changer MechanismNKS003B1
CAUTION:
Prior to removing a malfunctioning CD auto-changer unit that will be shipped for repair, the
changer mechanism MUST BE LOCKED to prevent the mechanism from being damaged during
shipping.
If a CD is jammed or unable to be removed from the unit, do NOT lock the changer mechanism. If
the unit is to be shipped for repair, carefully package the unit to prevent vibration and shock.
DAMPER LOCK PROCEDURE
1. Eject and remove any CDs from the audio unit.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF. Wait until audio unit display is off and mechanism stops moving (mechanism sound stops).
3. Press any one of the disc selection buttons once. When a display shows on the audio unit, press the same disc selection button again within 5 seconds.
The changer mechanism will lock itself within 10 seconds.
4. After mechanism stops moving (mechanism sound stops), open the driver and passenger window, and then disconnect negative battery cable.
NOTE:
After installing a new or remanufactured audio unit, switching the audio unit ON will automatically unlock the
mechanism. A special unlocking procedure is not required.
