Monitor Check: Notes

Overview of navigation display unit

The illumination input from the gauge brightness control provides back lighting for the buttons surrounding the screen and the illumination ON and OFF signal for the display backlighting.
The illumination cancel signal is provided by the gauge via B-CAN to the HVAC unit, then to the navigation unit via the U-ART bus.
The navigation display communicates with the navigation unit over its own GA-Net bus. Information is sent to the navigation unit whenever the user activates the touch screen, or buttons. Information sent by the navigation unit to the navigation display includes commands to control the LCD back light.
The security system protects the navigation display by daisy-chaining the security signal through it, and then passing the signal to the audio unit.
The illumination input from the gauge brightness control provides back lighting for the buttons surrounding the screen.

These screens allow you to troubleshoot the navigation display. Select the item you want to troubleshoot, and follow the diagnostic instructions.
