PRECAUTION
1. DISCONNECT AND RECONNECT CABLE OF
NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
(a) Before performing electronic work, disconnect the
cable from the negative (-) battery terminal in order
to prevent it from shorting and burning out.
(b) Before disconnecting and reconnecting the battery
cable, turn the ignition switch OFF and the headlight
dimmer switch OFF. Then loosen the terminal nut
completely. Do not damage the cable or terminal.
(c) When the battery cable is disconnected, the clock
and radio settings and stored DTCs are erased.
Therefore, before disconnecting the battery cable,
make a note of them.
NOTICE:
When the cable is disconnected from the negative (-)
battery terminal, initialize the following system(s) after
the cable is reconnected.

CALIBRATION
1. DESCRIPTION
NOTICE:
Do not place magnetic or metal objects on or near
the accessory meter.
HINT:
The procedures described below are for vehicles
equipped with an accessory meter.
(a) The location of magnetic north differs depending on
the vehicle location. Adjustment of the compass'
magnetism is required to correct possible compass
deviations from true north.
(b) Compass function calibration is necessary when: 1)
purchasing a vehicle; 2) disconnecting and
reconnecting the cable of the negative (-) battery
terminal; 3) replacing the vehicle battery; 4) driving
the vehicle outside the set zone (see the zone map
below); or 5) placing magnetic or metal objects near
the accessory meter (the direction indication on the
display blinks).
2. PERFORM CALIBRATION
CAUTION:
Strictly observe posted speed limits, traffic laws
and road conditions.
Make sure no people are near the vehicle.
NOTICE:
Perform the circling calibration in a spacious area
that does not have artificial magnetic influence.
Calibration cannot be performed in underground
parking lots, areas under steel towers and areas
between tall buildings.
When performing the calibration, do not operate
the air conditioner, power windows, or any other
electrical system.
The compass may become magnetized during
shipping by vessels or freight cars. Be sure to
calibrate the compass by correctly performing the
procedure described below. If the calibration
cannot be completed despite the vehicle being
driven in a circle several times, the vehicle's
magnetic field may be interfering with the
calibration. Demagnetize the vehicle using a
demagnetizer and perform calibration again.
ME14
ME
(a) DEVIATION CALIBRATION PROCEDURE:
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
HINT:
When the initial circling calibration has not yet
been performed, the COMPASS indicator in the
outside temperature display blinks.
(2) Switch the mode to compass correction mode by
pushing the SET button for about 2 seconds,
until the zone number appears in the outside
temperature display.
HINT:
If no button operations occur for more than 6
seconds while in compass correction mode, the
calibration is cancelled and the display returns to
the outside temperature indication. To restart,
perform the procedure from the first step again.

E/M Button SET Button
Outside Temperature Display
Accessory Meter:
B133412E01

ME15
ME
(3) Refer to the following map to determine the
vehicle location and select the relevant zone
number by pushing the E/M button.
HINT:
After DEVIATION CALIBRATION, leave the
system for 6 seconds or push and hold the SET
button for about 2 seconds. The display returns
to the outside temperature display.
(b) CIRCLING CALIBRATION PROCEDURE:
(1) Start the engine.
HINT:
When the initial circling calibration has not yet
been performed, the COMPASS indicator in the
outside temperature display blinks.

(2) Switch the mode to compass correction mode by
pushing the SET button for about 2 seconds,
until the zone number appears in the outside
temperature display.
HINT:
If no button operations occur for more than 6
seconds while in compass correction mode,
calibration is cancelled and the display returns to
the outside temperature indication. To restart,
perform the procedure from the first step again.
(3) Push the SET button again to change the mode
to turn correction mode.
HINT:
While in correction mode, the indication bars
move as shown in the illustration.
(4) If there is sufficient space to drive the vehicle in
a circle, perform the following procedure:
1. Drive the vehicle in a full circle within 2
minutes, at a vehicle speed of 5mph (8km/h)
or lower, as shown in the illustration.
NOTICE:
Do not perform the circling calibration of
the compass in a place where the earth's
magnetic field is subject to interference by
artificial magnetic fields (underground
parking, under a steel tower, between
buildings, roof parking, near a crossing,
near a large vehicle, etc.).
During the calibration, do not operate any
electric systems (power window, etc.) as
they may interfere with the calibration.
B133406
B133389
B133390
ME17
ME
HINT:
When the compass display returns to the
outside temperature display, the calibration is
complete.
When the circling calibration fails, "Er" is
displayed for about 2 seconds and then the
COMPASS indicator flashes.
If the correct direction is not displayed after
driving the vehicle as specified, change the
vehicle location.
To cancel the calibration before completion,
push the SET button for about 2 seconds.
(5) If enough space is not available to drive in a
circle, perform the following:
1. Perform a four-point turn within 2 minutes, as
shown in the illustration.
NOTICE:
Do not perform the circling calibration of
the compass in a place where the earth's
magnetic field is subject to interference by
artificial magnetic fields (underground
parking, under a steel tower, between
buildings, roof parking, near a crossing,
near a large vehicle, etc.).
During the calibration, do not operate any
electric systems (power window, etc.) as
they may interfere with the calibration.
HINT:
When the compass display returns to the
outside temperature display, the calibration is
complete.
When the circling calibration fails, "Er" is
displayed for about 2 seconds and then the
COMPASS indicator flashes.
If the correct direction is not displayed after
driving the vehicle as specified, change the
vehicle location.
To cancel the calibration before completion,
push the SET button for about 2 seconds.
(6) Check that the COMPASS indicator is not
blinking and that the compass is displayed
normally.

switches, sensors, actuators without removing any parts.
Reading the DATA LIST as the first step of
troubleshooting is one method of shortening diagnostic
time.
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(c) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(e) Operate the intelligent tester according to the
display on the tester screen and select DATA LIST.

2. INSPECT SPEED SENSOR
(a) Check the output signal waveform.
(1) Remove the combination meter assembly, but
do not disconnect the connector.
(2) Connect an oscilloscope to terminal E13-4 and
to the body ground.
(3) Start the engine.
(4) Check the signal waveform according to the
conditions in the table below.
OK:
As shown in the illustration.
NOTICE:
As the vehicle speed increases, the cycle of
the signal waveform narrows.
(5) Reinstall the combination meter assembly.
3. INSPECT TACHOMETER
(a) Check the operation.
(1) Connect the tune-up test tachometer and start
the engine.
NOTICE:
Reversing the connection of the
tachometer will damage the transistors
and the insides of the diodes.
When removing or installing the
tachometer, be careful not to drop or
strike it.
(2) Compare the result of the test with the standard
indication.
