Diagnostic Test: Self-Diagnosis Mode

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Acura MDX, 2012 Acura MDX, 2011 Acura MDX, and 2010 Acura MDX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • Check the vehicle battery condition first (see BATTERY TEST ).
  • Check if * button has been pressed, and turned off the display (see Owner's manual for more information).
  • Check the connectors for poor connections or loose terminals.
  • Check for and resolve all CAN DTCs before troubleshooting the navigation system.
  • Before troubleshooting, make sure you have the anti-theft codes for the audio-navigation unit.
  • After troubleshooting, enter the anti-theft codes for the audio-navigation unit.
  • Check any official Honda service website for more service information about the navigation system.
  1. Check the No. 5 (10 A) fuse, the No. 7 (10 A) fuse, and the No. 32 (10 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box, and reinstall the fuses if they are OK.

    Are the fuses OK? 

    YES  -Go to step 2.

    NO  -Replace the fuse, and recheck.

  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  3. Do the forced starting of the audio-navigation unit (see FORCED STARTING OF THE AUDIO-NAVIGATION UNIT  ).

    Is the diagnosis menu of the picture diagnosis displayed? 

    YES  -Go to step  5.

    NO  -Go to step 4.

  4. Shield the display unit from the sun with your hand, and check that the display is back lit (only the back light is ON.)

    Can you see the backlight? 

    YES  -Substitute a known-good audio-navigation unit (including the HDD) (see AUDIO-NAVIGATION UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  ), and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away, replace the original audio-navigation unit (see AUDIO-NAVIGATION UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  ). If the symptom is still present, replace the navigation display unit (see NAVIGATION DISPLAY UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  ).

    NO  -Go to step  7.

  5. Measure the voltage between body ground and audio-navigation unit connector A (24P) terminals No. 14 and No. 24 individually.

    Is there battery voltage? 

    YES  -Go to step 6.

    NO  --If the +B wire does not have voltage, repair an open in the wire between the under-dash fuse/relay box and the audio-navigation unit. If the ACC wire does not have voltage, repair an open in the wire between the under-dash fuse/relay box and the audio-navigation unit.

  6. Measure the voltage between audio-navigation unit connector A (24P) terminal No. 12 and body ground.

    Is there less than 0.2 V? 

    YES  -Go to step 7.

    NO  -Repair an open or high resistance in the wire between audio-navigation unit connector A (24P) terminal No. 12 and body ground (G504) (see CONNECTOR TO FUSE/RELAY BOX INDEX ).

  7. Measure the voltage between body ground and navigation display unit 28P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2 individually.

    Is there battery voltage? 

    YES  -Go to step 8.

    NO  -If the +B wire does not have voltage, repair an open in the wire between the under-dash fuse/relay box and the navigation display unit 28P connector. If the ACC wire does not have voltage, repair an open in the wire between the under-dash fuse/relay box and the navigation display unit 28P connector.

  8. Measure the voltage between navigation display unit 28P connector terminal No. 15 and body ground.

    Is there less than 0.2 V? 

    YES  -Substitute a known-good navigation display unit (see NAVIGATION DISPLAY UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  ), and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away, replace the original navigation display unit (see NAVIGATION DISPLAY UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  ). If the symptom is still present, replace the audio-navigation unit (see AUDIO-NAVIGATION UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION  ).

    NO  -Repair an open or high resistance between navigation display unit 28P connector terminal No. 15 and body ground (G506) (see CONNECTOR TO FUSE/RELAY BOX INDEX ).
