Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
HUD - LED Display
The HUD contains red LEDs that warn the driver of a possible collision event when commanded by the CCM.
There are certain situations when the warning LEDs cannot be seen, such as bright sunlight or when wearing sunglasses. The HUD module has a temperature sensor circuit that is integral to the module that senses the temperature of the LEDs internal to the module. When a high passenger compartment temperature such as strong sunlight is sensed by the temperature sensor, the warning LEDs can be temporarily disengaged. If this occurs, only the audible warning chime is used.
Warnings may not appear if there is little distance to the vehicle ahead or abrupt steering wheel and pedal movements are made.
