Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview

Audio System Self-Diagnostic Function

The audio system has a self-diagnostic function.

The audio-navigation unit (with navigation) does not support this 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.
