CAUTION:
IWhen cylinder body is open, do not depress brake pedal,
or piston will pop out.
IBe careful not to damage piston boot or get oil on rotor.
Always replace shims when replacing pads.
IIf shims are rusted or show peeling of the rubber coat,
replace them with new shims.
IIt is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for
disassembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this
case, suspend cylinder body with wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.
ICarefully monitor brake fluid level because brake fluid will
return to reservoir when pushing back piston.

ROTORNBBR0035S02RunoutNBBR0035S02011. Secure rotor to wheel hub with at least two nuts (M12´1.25).
2. Check runout using a dial indicator.
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the
specifications before measuring. Refer to AX-4, ªFront Wheel
Bearingº.
Maximum runout:
0.1 mm (0.004 in)
3. If the runout is out of specification, find minimum runout posi-
tion as follows:
a. Remove nuts and rotor from wheel hub.
b. Shift the rotor one hole and secure rotor to wheel hub with
nuts.
c. Measure runout.
d. Repeat steps a. to c. so that minimum runout position can be
found.
4. If the runout is still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car
brake lathe (ªMAD, DL-8700º, ªAMMCO 700 and 705º or
equivalent).

System DescriptionNBBR0091SENSORNBBR0091S01The sensor unit consists of a gear-shaped sensor rotor and a sen-
sor element. The element contains a bar magnet around which a
coil is wound. The front sensors are installed on the front spindles
and the rear sensors are installed on the rear spindles. As the
wheel rotates, the sensor generates a sine-wave pattern. The fre-
quency and voltage increase(s) as the rotating speed increases.
SBR668E
CONTROL UNIT (BUILT-IN ABS ACTUATOR AND
ELECTRIC UNIT)
NBBR0091S02The control unit computes the wheel rotating speed by the signal
current sent from the sensor. Then it supplies a DC current to the
actuator solenoid valve. It also controls ON-OFF operation of the
valve relay and motor relay. If any electrical malfunction should be
detected in the system, the control unit causes the warning lamp
to light up. In this condition, the ABS will be deactivated by the
control unit, and the vehicle's brake system reverts to normal
operation. (For control unit layout, refer to ABS ACTUATOR AND
ELECTRIC UNIT, BR-33.)

*1: If one or more wheels spin on a rough or slippery road for 40 seconds or more, the ABS warning lamp will illuminate. This does not
indicate a malfunction. Only in the case of the short-circuit (Code Nos. 26, 22, 32 and 36), after repair the ABS warning lamp also illu-
minates when the ignition switch is turned ON. In this case, drive the vehicle at speeds greater than 30 km/h (19 MPH) for approxi-
mately 1 minute as specified in ªSELF-DIAGNOSIS PROCEDUREº, BR-41. Check to ensure that the ABS warning lamp goes out while
the vehicle is being driven.
*2: The trouble code ª57º, which refers to a low power supply voltage, does not indicate that the ABS control unit is malfunctioning. Do
not replace the ABS control unit with a new one.

Service NoticeNBBT0001IWhen removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding onto the vehicle body to prevent
scratches.
IHandle trim, molding, instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to soil
or damage them.
IApply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts.
IWhen applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts.
IWhen replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, members, etc.), be sure to take rust pre-
vention measures.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ªAIR
BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº
NBBT0002The Supplemental Restraint System such as ªAIR BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of
collision. The SRS system composition which is available to INFINITI QX4 is as follows:
IFor a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the steer-
ing wheel), front passenger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on passenger side), seat belt
pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
IFor a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of side air bag module (located in the outer side of front seat),
satellite sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision), wiring harness,
warning lamp (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
WARNING:
ITo avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed
by an authorized INFINITI dealer.
IImproper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the RS section.
IDo not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
