In Line Diag (multi-information display unit) 

NOTE:  If the vehicle left the factory in the factory diagnostic mode, you will see this screen every time you turn the vehicle to the ON mode. You may also see this screen if you recently replaced the multi-information display unit.

When the multi-information display unit is powered up for the first time at the factory or sometimes when a remanufactured multi-information display unit is installed, the factory diagnostic screen (In Line Diag) appears. Normally the factory does the steps necessary to verify proper operation and terminate the factory diagnosis. Until the proper confirmation sequence is done, the screen appears every time the vehicle is started.

Also, the In Line Diag function can be performed from the Service Diag menu.

Select the In Line Diag in the Service Diag menu, then select the Diagnostic Result.

The In Line Diag function runs automatically. When the diagnosis finishes, the icons turn different colors based on their test status (OK or NG).

NOTE:  The Result (A) indicates NG until the audio remote switch buttons (the DISPLAY button or the MENU button and the SOURCE button or the directional pad) are pressed.
