Precautions for TCM and CVT Assembly ReplacementBCS001FR
When replacing CVT assembly or TCM, refer to the pattern table below and erase the EEPROM in the TCM if
necessary.
CAUTION:
Check if new data (Unit ID) are entered correctly after replacing CVT assembly and erasing data in
TCM. (Connect CONSULT-II, and then turn ignition switch OFF.)
“TCM POWER SUPPLY [P1701]” may be indicated soon after replacing TCM or transaxle assembly
(after erasing the memory). Restart the self-diagnosis after erasing the self-diagnosis result.
Check that no error is detected.
EEPROM ERASING PATTERNS
METHOD FOR ERASING THE EEPROM IN THE TCM
1. Connect CONSULT-II to data link connector. Refer to CVT-45, "CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE" .
2. Turn ignition switch ON. Confirm that CONSULT-II is turned ON.
3. Move selector lever to “R” position.
4. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)” on CONSULT-II.
5. Select “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” mode for “TRANSMISSION” with CONSULT-II.
6. Press the brake pedal and turn the brake switch ON.
7. Press the accelerator pedal (0.5/8 - 4/8 throttle) not to exceed the half, and hold it in the half or less open
position. (This will set the closed throttle position signal to OFF and the wide open throttle position signal
to OFF.)
8. Touch “ERASE” on CONSULT-II, and then touch “YES”.
9. Wait 3 seconds and then release the accelerator pedal.
10. Turn ignition switch OFF.
METHOD FOR WRITING DATA FROM THE ROM ASSEMBLY IN THE TRANSAXLE
In the following procedure, the TCM reads data from the ROM assembly and writes it to the EEPROM in the
TCM.
1. Erase the EEPROM in the TCM.
2. Move selector lever to “P” position.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK METHOD
Standard: About 2 seconds after the ignition switch ON, the CVT indicator lamp lights up for 2 seconds.
Non-standard: Even after the ignition switch ON, the CVT indicator lamp does not light up after 2 seconds
or illuminates immediately.
CAUTION:
Perform in the “P” or “N” position.
Action for Non-standard
Replace the CVT assembly.
Replace the TCM.
CVT assembly TCM Erasing EEPROM in TCM Remarks
Replaced Replaced Not requiredNot required because the EEPROM in the TCM is in
the default state. (CVT assembly must be replaced
first.)
Not replaced Replaced Not requiredNot required because the EEPROM in the TCM is in
the default state.
Replaced Not replaced RequiredRequired because data has been written in the
EEPROM in the TCM and because the TCM cannot
write data from the ROM assembly in the transmis-
sion.

CVT FLUIDPFP:KLE50
Checking CVT FluidBCS001FX
Fluid level should be checked with the fluid warmed up to 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). The fluid level check pro-
cedure is as follows:
1. Check for fluid leakage.
2. With the engine warmed up, drive the vehicle in an urban area.
When ambient temperature is 20°C (68°F), it takes about 10
minutes for the CVT fluid to warm up to 50 to 80°C (122 to
176°F).
3. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
4. Apply parking brake firmly.
5. With engine at idle, while depressing brake pedal, move shift
selector throughout the entire shift range.
6. Pull out the CVT fluid level gauge from the CVT fluid charging
pipe after pressing the tab on the CVT fluid level gauge to
release the lock.
7. Wipe fluid off the CVT fluid level gauge. Insert the CVT fluid
level gauge rotating 180° from the originally installed position,
then securely push the CVT fluid level gauge until it meets the
top end of the CVT fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the CVT fluid level gauge, always use
lint-free paper, not a cloth rag.
8. Place the selector lever in “P” or “N” and make sure the fluid
level is within the specified range.
CAUTION:
When reinstalling CVT fluid level gauge, insert it into the
CVT fluid charging pipe and rotate it to the original installa-
tion position until it is securely locked.

NOTE:
The gear ratio is set for every position separately.
“D” POSITION
Shifting over all the ranges of gear ratios from the lowest to the high-
est.
“M” POSITION
When the selector lever is put in the manual shift gate side, the fixed
changing gear line is set. By moving the selector lever to + side or -
side, the manual mode switch is changed over, and shift change like
M/T becomes possible following the changing gear set line step by
step.
DOWNHILL ENGINE BRAKE CONTROL (AUTO ENGINE BRAKE CONTROL)
When downhill is detected with the accelerator pedal released, the engine brake will be strengthened up by
downshifting so as not to accelerate the vehicle more than necessary.
ACCELERATION CONTROL
According to vehicle speed and a change of accelerator pedal angle, driver's request for acceleration and driv-
ing scene are judged. This function assists improvement in acceleration feeling by making the engine speed
proportionate to the vehicle speed. And a shift map which can gain a larger driving force is available for com-
patibility of mileage with drivability.
Lock-up and Select ControlBCS001G7
The torque converter clutch piston in the torque converter is engaged to eliminate torque converter slip to
increase power transmission efficiency.
The torque converter clutch control valve operation is controlled by the torque converter clutch solenoid
valve, which is controlled by a signal from TCM. The torque converter clutch control valve engages or
releases the torque converter clutch piston.
When shifting between “N” (“P”) ⇔ “D” (“R”), torque converter clutch solenoid controls engagement power
of forward clutch and reverse brake.
The lock-up applied gear range was expanded by locking up the
torque converter at a lower vehicle speed than conventional
CVT models.

Inspect for fluid leakage and check the fluid level. Refer to CVT-13, "Checking CVT Fluid" .
Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle so that the
CVT fluid temperature is 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). Inspect the
amount of CVT fluid. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test.
It is good practice to mark the point of specified engine
rpm on indicator.
5. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D”
position.
6. While holding down the foot brake, gradually press down the
accelerator pedal.
7. Quickly read off the stall speed, and then quickly remove your
foot from the accelerator pedal.
CAUTION:
Do not hold down the accelerator pedal for more than 5 sec-
onds during this test.
8. Move the selector lever to the “N” position.
9. Cool down the CVT fluid.

Line Pressure Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil and replenish if necessary.
2. Drive the car for about 10 minutes to warm it up so that the CVT fluid reaches in the range of 50 to 80°C
(122 to 176°F), then inspect the amount of CVT fluid and replenish if necessary.
NOTE:
The CVT fluid temperature rises in the range of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) during 10 minutes of driv-
ing.
3. After warming up CVT, remove the oil pressure detection plug and install the oil pressure gauge. (Special
service tool: ST2505S001)
CAUTION:
When using the oil pressure gauge, be sure to use the O-ring attached to the oil pressure detec-
tion plug.
4. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
