DTC 1201: DVD High Temp

2009 Honda CR-V EX, 2.4 RE3SECTION DTC 1201: DVD High Temp
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda CR-V and 2010 Honda CR-V. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • Check the vehicle battery condition first (see BATTERY TEST ).
  • This code sets when the internal temperature of the audio-navigation unit ECU rises above 158°F (70°C). The audio-navigation unit is designed to shut down to protect the audio-navigation unit ECU. This could be caused by an inoperative audio-navigation unit ECU fan or if the dash temperature exceeds the maximum. Do the troubleshooting when the unit is within the allowable temperature range.
  • Before you troubleshoot, make sure to follow the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION -('10 MODEL) ).
  • Check that the fan screen on the back to the audio-navigation unit is not blocked. Clean it if necessary.
  1. Check that the temperature is below 158°F (70°C) in the dash.
  2. Clear the hard error code (see HOW TO CLEAR ERROR HISTORY ).
  3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0) and then back to ON (II).
  4. Check for the hard error code (see HOW DO I FIND THE LOCAL ADDRESS OF A BUSINESS THAT IS PART OF A NATIONAL CHAIN (FOR EXAMPLE, STARBUCKS)? ).

    Is DTC 1201 indicated? 

    YES  -Replace the audio-navigation unit (see AUDIO-NAVIGATION UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION - ('10 MODEL) ).

    NO  -Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. If the vehicle repeatedly comes back with the DTC, replace the audio-navigation unit (see AUDIO-NAVIGATION UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION - ('10 MODEL) ).
