Self-Diagnosis ProceduresEIS005X4
INPUT SIGNAL CHECK MODE
Input signal check mode allows testing of switch input signal to the back door control unit.
To activate input signal check mode on the automatic back door, perform the following steps:
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Turn back door close switch to CANCEL (system cancelled).
3. Place A/T selector lever in P position.
4. Using the inside emergency release lever, open the back door.
5. Have an assistant press and hold the back door handle switch.
6. While the assistant continues to hold the back door handle switch, turn ignition switch ON (DO NOT start
engine).
7. After approximately 5 seconds, the back door warning chime will sound for 0.5 seconds.
8. Release the back door handle switch.
9. Within 8 seconds of the back door warning chime sounding, press and hold the power liftgate switch.
10. After approximately 5 seconds, the back door warning chime will sound for 1 second.
11. Release the power liftgate switch.
12. The input signal check mode is now initialized.
The input signal check mode can test the following inputs. The back door warning chime will sound for approx-
imately 0.5 seconds each time a switch signal input occurs. Use this test when one of these inputs is not
responding during normal automatic back door operation.
*Back door warning chime should sound as soon as vehicle moves.
Turn ignition switch OFF to end input signal check mode.
OPERATING CHECK MODE
Operating check mode allows self-diagnosis of the automatic back door system.
To activate operating check mode on the automatic back door, perform the following steps:
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Turn back door close switch to CANCEL (system cancelled).
3. Place A/T selector lever in P position.

Revision: August 20072004 QX56
System DescriptionEIS002TM
IVIS (Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System-NATS) has the following immobilizer functions:

Since only IVIS (NATS) ignition keys, whose IDs have been registered into the ECM and BCM, allow the
engine to run, operation of a stolen vehicle without an IVIS (NATS) registered key is prevented by IVIS
(NATS).
IVIS (NATS) will immobilize the engine if someone tries to start it without the registered key of IVIS
(NATS).

All of the originally supplied ignition key IDs have been IVIS (NATS) registered.
If requested by the vehicle owner, a maximum of five key IDs can be registered into the IVIS (NATS) com-
ponents.

The security indicator blinks when the ignition switch is in OFF or ACC position. IVIS (NATS) warns out-
siders that the vehicle is equipped with the anti-theft system.

When IVIS (NATS) detects a malfunction, the security indicator lamp lights up while ignition key is in the
ON position.

IVIS (NATS) trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of other IVIS (NATS) igni-
tion key IDs must be carried out using CONSULT-II hardware and CONSULT-II IVIS (NATS) software.
When IVIS (NATS) initialization has been completed, the ID of the inserted ignition key is automatically
IVIS (NATS) registered. Then, if necessary, additional registration of other IVIS (NATS) ignition key IDs
can be carried out.
Regarding the procedures of IVIS (NATS) initialization and IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID registration, refer
to CONSULT-II Operation Manual NATS-IVIS/NVIS.

When servicing a malfunction of the IVIS (NATS) (indicated by lighting up of Security Indicator
Lamp) or registering another IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID, it may be necessary to re-register origi-
nal key identification. Therefore, be sure to receive ALL KEYS from vehicle owner.
System CompositionEIS0 02 T N
The immobilizer function of the IVIS (NATS) consists of the following:

NATS ignition key

NATS antenna amp. located in the ignition key cylinder

Body control module (BCM)

Engine control module (ECM)

Security indicator
NOTE:
The communication between ECM and BCM uses the CAN communication system.

Revision: August 20072004 QX56
ECM Re-communicating FunctionEIS002TO
The following procedure can automatically perform re-communication of ECM and BCM, but only when the
ECM has been replaced with a new one which has never been energized on-board.
(In this step, initialization procedure by CONSULT-II is not necessary)
NOTE:

When registering new key IDs or replacing the ECM other than brand new, refer to CONSULT-II
Operation Manual NATS-IVIS/NVIS.

If multiple keys are attached to the key holder, separate them before work.

Distinguish keys with unregistered key ID from those with registered ID.
1. Install ECM.
2. Using a registered key (*1), turn ignition switch to ON.
*1: To perform this step, use the key that has been used before performing ECM replacement.
3. Maintain ignition switch in ON position for at least 5 seconds.
4. Turn ignition switch to OFF.
5. Start engine.
If engine can be started, procedure is completed.
If engine cannot be started, refer to CONSULT-II Operation Manual NATS-IVIS/NVIS and initialize control
unit.

NOTE:
Confirm vehicle model on IDENTIFICATION PLATE. Refer to
GI-46, "
Model Variation"
7. Select “NATS V.5.0”.
If “NATS V5.0” is not indicated, go to GI-39, "
CONSULT-II Data
Link Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
8. Perform each diagnostic test mode according to each service
procedure.
For further information, see the CONSULT-II Operation Manual
NATS-IVIS/NVIS.
CONSULT-II DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE FUNCTION
NOTE:

When any initialization is performed, all IDs previously registered will be erased and all NATS ignition keys
must be registered again.

The engine cannot be started with an unregistered key. In this case, the system will show “DIFFERENCE
OF KEY” or “LOCK MODE” as a self-diagnostic result on the CONSULT-II screen.

In rare case, “CHAIN OF ECM-IMMU” might be stored as a self-diagnostic result during key registration
procedure, even if the system is not malfunctioning.
