Dealer Test Mode
To enter the IPC dealer test mode, begin with the ignition in OFF. Press and hold the LH steering wheel switch OK button. Place the ignition in ON 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 OFF. Each button press advances the viewing window to the next set of items.
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 below lists the displays as they appear when navigating using the down arrow button.
