INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note


  • When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal while performing repairs, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Click here.

  • w/ Navigation System (for HDD):

    After the ignition switch is turned off, the HDD navigation system requires approximately a minute to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the ignition switch off, wait a minute or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

Tech Tips

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
