Factory diagnostic screen In Line Diag: Notes
When an audio-navigation unit is powered up for the first time at the factory, the factory diagnosis screen (In Line Diag) appears. Normally the factory does the steps necessary to verify proper operation and terminate the factory diagnostic.
Until the proper confirmation sequence is done, the screen appears every time the vehicle is started.
Follow the steps below to prevent the screen from showing up in the future:
- Press and hold the MENU, the MAP/GUIDE, and the CANCEL buttons for about 3 seconds. The Select Diagnosis items screen appears.
- Press and hold the MAP/GUIDE button for about 5-10 seconds. A screen with a Complete button, appears.
- Press complete, then Return, and then shut the key off for 5 seconds. Do not disconnect the battery during this period as the unit is saving the setting to the SRAM memory. The In Line Diag should not appear again.
- Restart the vehicle, and confirm normal operation by completing PDI of the Navigation System Service Bulletin.
