How To Alternate Diagnosis More

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Turn ignition switch ON, and switch the odo/trip meter to "trip A" or "trip B".
    NOTE: If the diagnosis function is activated with the trip meter A displayed, the mileage on the trip meter A will indicate 0000.0 miles, but the actual trip mileage will be retained. (Trip B operates the same way.)
  2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
  3. While pushing the odo/trip meter switch, turn ignition switch ON again.
  4. Make sure the trip meter displays "0000.0".
  5. Push the odo/trip meter switch at least 3 times within 5 seconds.
  6. All the segments on the odo/trip meter and A/T indicator illuminate, and simultaneously the low-fuel warning lamp indicator illuminates. At this time, the unified meter control unit is turned to diagnosis mode.
