How to Check the Audio System Condition
The audio system has a self-diagnostic function to help find problems with the audio system. To run the self-diagnostic function, do the following:
NOTE:
- Check the vehicle battery condition first (see BATTERY TEST ).
- Not all self-diagnostic functions appear on all models.
- There may be other self-diagnostic functions that are for factory use only.
- The self-diagnostic function does not find every problem with the audio system.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Make sure the audio system is turned off.
- Press and hold the preset No. 1 and No. 6 buttons.
- While holding the buttons, push the VOLUME/POWER knob.
- Release the buttons, and the self-diagnosis begins.
