NOTE:
- Always check the connectors for poor connection or loose terminals.
- Before troubleshooting, get the navigation system anti-theft code.
- After troubleshooting, enter the navigation system anti-theft code.
- Full brightness on the instrument panel brightness control causes the system to stay in the day mode, even when the lights are on.

2. Change the day/night mode under Set-up and recheck.

Does the display change to day and night modes?

YES - The system is OK at this time.

3. Go into the Diagnostic Menu and use the "Car Status" test to check for an ILL signal.

NO - Check the ILL+ circuit between the navigation unit and No. 14 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box.
