The System Links function runs automatically and
displays a flashing message at the bottom of the
screen reminding you to have the engine running
for the test. The diagnostic tests the following:
• The cables connecting the navigation
components shown in the block diagram.
• The results from the various components shown
in the block diagram.
• The microphone is tested by listening to the bong
sound produced by the navigation unit from the
speakers when the diagnostic starts. This
requires that the audio system operates normally.
When the diagnostic finishes, the icons turn
different colors based on their test status. The color
definitions are shown in the table and can also be
seen by selecting Help on the System Links screen.
The indication on the screen may not change until

the indication to change. After you repair the
affected component or harness, repeat this
diagnostic.
