Diagnostic Procedure without Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)

ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS)

2. WHEN THE SI-DRIVE MODE IS CHANGED, “MODE CHANGE ERROR” APPEARS IN THE 
MULTI INFORMATION DISPLAY APPROXIMATELY 5 SECONDS LATER

3. WHEN THE SI-DRIVE MODE IS CHANGED, “MODE CHANGE ERROR” IS NOT DISPLAYED 
IN MULTI INFORMATION DISPLAY, AND “S#”, “I”, “S” FLASHES

NOTE:
In this case, there may be a problem outside the SI-DRIVE system.

Step

Check

Yes

No

1

CHECK DTC.

Is DTC displayed?

Check the corre-
sponding DTC 
using the “List of 
Diagnostic Trouble 
Code (DTC)” for 
each unit.

Go to step 2.

2

CHECK DISPLAY OF MULTI-INFORMATION 
DISPLAY METER.
Check whether there are other errors displayed 
other than the “Mode Change Error”.
Examples:
• “Err” is displayed in the external temperature 
or fuel consumption displays.
• FUEL gauge, TEMP gauge or ECO gauge 
does not move.

Is there other errors displayed 
other than the “Mode Change 
Error”?

For the diagnostic 
procedure, refer to 
LAN section. <Ref. 
to LAN(diag)-2, 
Basic Diagnostic 
Procedure.>

Go to step 3.

3

CHECK MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY 
METER AND ECM.

Is the multi-information display 
meter and ECM part numbers 
correct?

Replace the multi-
information dis-
play meter. <Ref. 
to IDI-22, Combi-
nation Meter.>

Replace the multi-
information dis-
play meter or ECM 
to that of the cor-
rect part number. 
<Ref. to IDI-22, 
Combination 
Meter.> or <Ref. to 
FU(H4DOTC)-52, 
Engine Control 
Module (ECM).>

Step

Check

Yes

No

1

CHECK MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT.
1) Start the engine.
2) Check whether the malfunction indicator 
light is lit or not.

Does the malfunction indicator 
light illuminate?

Check the appro-
priate DTC using 
the “List of Diag-
nostic Trouble 
Code (DTC)”. 
<Ref. to 
EN(H4DOTC)(diag)
-81, List of Diag-
nostic Trouble 
Code (DTC).>

Go to step 2.

2

CHECK ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE 
GAUGE.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Check the engine coolant temperature 
gauge.

Is it overheating?

Investigate and 
repair the cause of 
overheating.

Go to step 3.

3

CHECK DISPLAY OF MULTI-INFORMATION 
DISPLAY.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Change the SI-DRIVE mode.
3) Check the display of the multi-information 
display.

Do the displays “S#”, “I”, “S” of 
the multi-information display 
flash?

Replace the multi-
information dis-
play meter. <Ref. 
to IDI-22, Combi-
nation Meter.>

Perform test opera-
tion, and check the 
malfunction indica-
tor and the coolant 
temperature 
gauge. If they are 
operating normally, 
end the diagnosis.
