Inspection Procedure 6: The multi information display screen cannot be changed with the operation 
of the meter information switch.

CAUTION

Before replacing the combination meter, be sure 
to check that the power supply circuit, ground 
circuit, and communication circuit are normal.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

When the signal from the meter information switch is 
received, the combination meter switches the multi 
information display screen. If the multi information 
display screen does not switch normally, the meter 
information switch, wiring harness, connector(s), or 
combination meter may have a problem.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The meter information switch may be defective

• The combination meter may be defective

• The wiring harness or connectors may have 

loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991223: Harness Set

• MB992006: Extra Fine Probe

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicles Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable
