Components DescriptionAKS006YD
CAN CommunicationAKS00815
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tric control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN COMMUNICATION UNIT
Refer to LAN-6, "CAN Communication Unit" .
Switch OperationAKS006YF
The system is operated by a master ON/OFF switch and four control switches, all mounted on the steering
wheel.

CONSULT-II FunctionAKS006YU
DESCRIPTION
CONSULT-II executes following functions by combining data reception and command transmission via com-
munication line from ICC unit.
CONSULT-II INSPECTION PROCEDURE
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Connect “CONSULT-II” and “CONSULT-II CONVERTER” to
data link connector, which is located under LH dash panel near
the hood opener handle.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”.
5. Touch “ICC” on the selection screen.
If “ICC” is not indicated, go to GI-40, "
CONSULT-II Data Link
Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
Test mode Function

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
Precautions ACS002L6
Before connecting or disconnecting the A/T assembly har-
ness connector, turn ignition switch “OFF” and disconnect
the battery cable from the negative terminal. Because bat-
tery voltage is applied to TCM even if ignition switch is
turned “OFF”.
After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform
“DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) Confirmation Procedure”.
If the repair is completed the DTC should not be displayed
in the “DTC Confirmation Procedure”.
Always use the specified brand of ATF. Refer to MA-12, "Fluids and Lubricants" .
Use paper rags not cloth rags during work.
After replacing the ATF, dispose of the waste oil using the methods prescribed by law, ordinance, etc.
Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the outside of the transmission. It is important to
prevent the internal parts from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.
Disassembly should be done in a clean work area.
Use lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common shop rags can leave fibers that could interfere
with the operation of the transmission.
Place disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.
All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.
Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the transmission is disassembled.
It is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.
The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced.
Place disassembled valve body parts in order for easier and proper assembly. Care will also prevent
springs and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.
Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.
Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings
and seals, or hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.
Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.
After overhaul, refill the transmission with new ATF.
When the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque
converter and ATF cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under “Changing A/T Fluid” in the AT section when changing A/T fluid. Refer
to AT- 1 2 , "
Changing A/T Fluid" , AT- 1 2 , "Checking A/T Fluid" .

A/T FLUID
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
A/T FLUIDPFP:KLE40
Changing A/T FluidACS0079Z
1. Warm up ATF.
2. Stop engine.
3. Loosen the level gauge bolt.
4. Drain ATF from drain plug and refill with new ATF. Always refill
same volume with drained fluid.
To replace the ATF, pour in new fluid at the charging pipe with
the engine idling and at the same time drain the old fluid from
the radiator cooler hose return side.
When the color of the fluid coming out is about the same as
the color of the new fluid, the replacement is complete. The
amount of new transmission fluid to use should be 30 to 50%
increase of the stipulated amount.
CAUTION:
Use only Genuine Nissan Matic J ATF. Do not mix with other fluid.
Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine Nissan Matic J ATF will cause deteriora-
tion in drive ability and automatic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic trans-
mission, which is not covered by the warranty.
When filling ATF, take care not to splash heat generating parts such as exhaust with ATF.
Do not reuse drain plug gasket.
5. Run engine at idle speed for 5 minutes.
6. Check fluid level and condition. Refer to AT- 1 2 , "
Checking A/T Fluid" . If fluid is still dirty, repeat step 2
through 5.
7. Install the removed A/T fluid level gauge in the A/T fluid charging pipe.
8. Tighten the level gauge bolt.
Checking A/T FluidACS007A0
1. Warm up engine.
2. Check for fluid leakage.
3. Loosen the level gauge bolt.
4. Before driving, fluid level can be checked at fluid temperatures
of 30 to 50°C (86 to 122°F) using “COLD” range on A/T fluid
level gauge as follows.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear posi-
tion. Leave selector lever in “P” position.
c. Check fluid level with engine idling.
d. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and wipe clean with lint-free
paper.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the A/T fluid level gauge, always use
lint-free paper, not a cloth one.A/T fluid: Genuine Nissan Matic J ATF

A/T FLUID
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
10. Tighten the level gauge bolt.
A/T Fluid Cooler CleaningACS007A1
Whenever an automatic transmission is replaced, the A/T fluid cooler mounted in the radiator must be
inspected and cleaned.
Metal debris and friction material, if present, can become trapped in the A/T fluid cooler. This debris can con-
taminate the newly serviced A/T or, in severe cases, can block or restrict the flow of A/T fluid. In either case,
malfunction of the newly serviced A/T may result.
Debris, if present, may build up as A/T fluid enters the cooler inlet. It will be necessary to back flush the cooler
through the cooler outlet in order to flush out any built up debris.
A/T FLUID COOLER CLEANING PROCEDURE
1. Position an oil pan under the automatic transmission's inlet and outlet cooler hoses.
2. Identify the inlet and outlet fluid cooler hoses.
3. Disconnect the fluid cooler inlet and outlet rubber hoses from the
steel cooler tubes or bypass valve.
NOTE:
Replace the cooler hoses if rubber material from the hose
remains on the tube fitting.
4. Allow any A/T fluid that remains in the cooler hoses to drain into
the oil pan.
5. Insert the extension adapter hose of a can of the Transmission
Cooler Cleaner (Nissan P/N 999MP-AM006) into the cooler out-
let hose.
CAUTION:
Wear safety glasses and rubber gloves when spraying
the Transmission Cooler Cleaner.
Spray the Transmission Cooler Cleaner only with ade-
quate ventilation.
Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
Do not breath vapors or spray mist.
6. Hold the hose and can as high as possible and spray the Trans-
mission Cooler Cleaner in a continuous stream into the cooler outlet hose until fluid flows out of the cooler
inlet hose for 5 seconds.Level gauge bolt:
