Terminal Number Wire Color Terminal Name Description Voltage (about) Symptom
10 GRY(1) HFL COMM SH (HFL communication shield) Shield for terminal No. 11, 12, 23, 24 - -
11 LT BLU HFL COMM2 (HFL communication 2) Communication signal for HFL - HFL icon in Navi System Link changes between red and green
12 LT GRN HFL COMM4 (HFL communication 4) Communication signal for HFL - Solid red HFL icon in Navi System Link
23 ORN HFL COMM1 (HFL communication 1) Communication signal for HFL - HFL icon in Navi System Link changes between red and green
24 PNK HFL COMM3 (HFL communication 3) Communication signal for HFL - Solid red HFL icon in Navi System Link
(1) The shielded wires have a heat-shrunk tube insulating the outside of the wire. The color of the insulating tube, typically black or dark gray, may not match the color of the wire shown on the circuit diagram.
