Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes

How to Troubleshoot the Audio System

The audio system has a self-diagnostic function.

NOTE:

- 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. Check any official Honda service website for more information about the audio system.

How to Use the Audio System Self-diagnostic Function

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

2. Make sure the audio system is turned off.

3. Push and hold the preset No. 1 and No. 6 buttons.

4. While holding the buttons, push the power button (A) on.

5. Release the buttons and the self-diagnostic mode begins.






6. When you are in the self-diagnostic mode, pressing a preset starts the diagnostic mode that is assigned to that preset switch.










7. If the diagnosis result is not matching the desired result, do the affected system troubleshooting.

8. The self-diagnostic mode ends when you turn off the audio unit or turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
