Dealer Test Mode

NOTE: Some of the displays listed in the table use xxx's to represent a numeric or alpha-numeric value. The value can display the same amount of characters represented by the xxx's, or there can be more/less depending on the type of display. For example: Speedo gauge xxx.x mph may display Speedo gauge 22.5 mph. Note that there were 4 x's in the display description but only 3 digits in the actual display.
NOTE: The table lists the displays as they appear when navigating using the down arrow button.

To enter the IPC self-diagnostic mode, begin with the ignition in the OFF mode. Press and hold the LH steering wheel switch OK button. Place the ignition in the ON mode and hold the button until the display indicates Test or Gauge Sweep, usually within 3-5 seconds. Press the up or down arrow buttons to navigate through each of the display windows. To exit the IPC self-test mode, press and hold the OK button for 3-5 seconds or place the ignition in the OFF mode. Each button press advances the viewing window to the next set of items.
