Segment Check
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1985 Nissan Maxima and 1985 Nissan 200SX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
This is used to check for an open circuit in each segment of the display and a short circuit between segments.
- While pushing trip reset switch, turn ignition switch to "ON" position. See Fig 1 . Trip reset switch should remain pushed in until self check operation is started.
- Meter starts to automatically perform self check. Segments for meters and gauges should illuminate one after another. If any particular segment remains off, combination meter itself is faulty.
- A segment check will be cancelled and normal display restarted if vehicle is operated during the segment check, or if a series of segment check items have been completed.
