Circuit/System Description
The head-up display (HUD) is a secondary display system capable of reflecting important vehicle information onto the windshield. The vehicle information is displayed using virtual imaging and is reflected off the windshield in front of the driver. Battery positive voltage is the power source to the HUD system. The HUD system can only be enabled when the ignition is active and in RUN position. The HUD receives vehicle information to be displayed via the serial data circuit. The HUD system also receives vehicle speed information via discreet vehicle speed signal circuit. The HUD interfaces with the HUD switch via discreet circuits and the HUD switch inputs to the HUD is low. The dim select switch initiates a smooth increase in the HUD display intensity until the switch is released or maximum intensity is achieved. The HUD does not have a separate Off switch. The HUD is turned off using the dim select switch. The dim select switch initiates a smooth decrease in the HUD intensity until the switch is released or the HUD is turned off.

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the dimming/head-up display (HUD) switch.
- Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the HUD switch ground circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Dim Select Switch parameter is Inactive.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the dimmer switch up signal circuit terminal 2 or the dimmer switch down signal circuit terminal 2 and the ground circuit terminal 1. Verify the scan tool Dim Up Switch/Dim Down Switch parameter is Active.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the HUD switch.
| ⇒ | If greater than 1 ohm, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If not Inactive, test the dimmer switch up signal circuit terminal 2 or the dimmer switch down signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to ground. If the circuit(s) tests normal, replace the HUD. |
| ⇒ | If any is not Active, test the appropriate dimmer switch signal circuit terminals 2 or 3 for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit(s) tests normal, replace the HUD. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
