- Remove the four screws, and the center information display (A).
- Disconnect the 12P connector (B) from the center information display.
- Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
- If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
- If the terminals look OK, go to step 6.
- Reconnect the connector to the center information display, turn the ignition switch ON (II), and make these input tests at the connector.
- If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
- If all input tests prove OK, the center information display must be faulty; replace it.CAVITY AND TEST CONDITION CHART
