How to Check Error History

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda Fit, 2010 Honda Fit, and 2009 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Error History feature is to record intermittent navigation issues that occur while using the system. Sometimes the customer complaint cannot be duplicated. The error history may record the information needed to diagnose the problem. To check the error history:

  1. Start the engine.
  2. When the map screen is displayed, press and hold the MAP/GUIDE+MENU+CANCEL buttons for 3 seconds.
  3. When the Select Diagnosis Items menu is displayed, select Detail Information & Setting.

  4. When the audio-navigation unit has hard codes, the Error History icon appears yellow when the Self Diagnosis mode (System links) screen is displayed. When no hard errors are stored, the icon appears gray. To view the errors with their DTC codes, select the error history icon.
