CAUTION:
If configuration is not performed when the instrument cluster is replaced with a new one, the vehicle specification information is not stored in the instrument cluster and the system will not operate normally.
When performing configuration, it is necessary to read the vehicle specification information from the instrument cluster before replacing it. Connect the M-MDS to the vehicle and perform vehicle identification before removing the instrument cluster. The vehicle specification information is temporarily stored in the M-MDS.
NOTE:
The instrument cluster prior to replacement stores the vehicle specification information.
A new instrument cluster does not store any vehicle specification information.
If the vehicle specification information from the instrument cluster prior to replacement cannot be read, perform the configuration using As-Built data.
