DIAGNOSIS

When any errors are found in the electronic control system, identify which system has the error and the cause
of the error through the following diagnosis.
DIAGNOSIS USING WARNING LIGHT (INCLUDING DIAG-
NOSIS MEMORY)
Ground the diagnosis switch (dealer mode) to perform diagnosis using warning light. Errors are indicated by
flashes (Morse code). When the diagnosis switch circuit is open (user mode), errors can be roughly indicated
by light ON, light flash, or light OFF.
The diagnosis must be done with engine running.

When any trouble occurs with engine stopped in the user mode, light will flash at the same time that
diagnosis starts.
When return ability is equipped, indication will return to the normal status by itself, and when it is not
equipped, trouble will not return by itself and back-up will function.
