Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
AFS00289
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:

To 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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

Improper 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 SRS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions for Brake SystemAFS001S3

Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”.

Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas such as body. If brake fluid is splashed, wipe it off
and flush area with water immediately.

Do not use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene to clean. They will ruin rubber parts and cause
improper operation.

Using a flare nut crowfoot and torque wrench, securely tighten
brake tube flare nuts.

Brake system is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is
detected, always disassemble the affected part. If a malfunction
is detected, replace part with a new one.

Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect electri-
cal connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or
battery negative terminal.

When installing brake piping, be sure to check torque.
WARNING:
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with
a dust collector.
Precautions for Brake ControlAFS001S4

During VDC/TCS/ABS operation, brake pedal lightly vibrates and a mechanical noise may be heard. This
is normal.

Just after starting vehicle after turning ignition switch ON, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating
noise may be heard from engine room. This is a normal status of operation check.

Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when vehicle drives on rough, gravel,
or snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.

When an error is indicated by ABS or another warning lamp, collect all necessary information from cus-
tomer (what symptoms are present under what conditions) and check for simple causes before starting
diagnostic servicing. Besides electrical system inspection, check booster operation, brake fluid level, and
fluid leaks.

If tire size and type are used in an improper combination, or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts,
stopping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.

Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX

When starting engine, or just after starting vehicle, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noises
may be heard from engine compartment. This is a normal status of operation check.

Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when vehicle drives on rough, gravel,
or snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.
EBD FunctionAFS001SF

Electronic brake distributor is a function that detects subtle slippages between front and rear wheels dur-
ing braking, and it improves handling stability by electronically controlling the brake fluid pressure which
results in reduced rear wheel slippage.

In case of electrical system malfunction, the fail-safe function is activated, EBD and ABS becomes inoper-
ative, and ABS warning lamp and brake warning lamp are turned on.

Electrical system diagnosis by CONSULT-II is available.

During EBD operation, brake pedal lightly vibrates and a mechanical noise may be heard. This is normal.

When starting engine, or just after starting vehicle, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noises
may be heard from engine compartment. This is a normal status of operation check.

Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without EBD when vehicle drives on rough, gravel,
or snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.
Fail-Safe FunctionAFS001SG
VDC / TCS SYSTEM
In case of malfunction in the VDC/TCS system, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp are turned
on, and the condition of vehicle is the same as the condition of vehicles without VDC/TCS system. In case of
malfunction in the VDC/TCS system, the ABS control continues to operate normally without VDC/TCS control.
CAUTION:
If the fail-safe function is activated, then perform the self-diagnosis for VDC/TCS/ABS control system.
ABS, EBD SYSTEM
In case of electrical malfunctions with the ABS, ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indica-
tor lamp will turn on. In case of electrical malfunctions with the EBD, brake warning lamp, ABS warning lamp,
VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp will turn on. Simultaneously, the VDC/TCS/ABS become one
of the following conditions of the fail-safe function.
1. For malfunction of ABS, only the EBD is activated and the condition of vehicle is the same condition of vehicles without TCS/ABS system.
2. For malfunction of EBD, EBD and ABS become inoperative, and the condition of vehicle is the same as the condition of vehicles without TCS/ABS, EBD system.
NOTE:
In condition 1 described above, an ABS self-diagnosis sound may be heard. That is a normal condition
because a self-diagnosis for “Ignition switch ON” and “The first starting” are being performed.

For Fast and Accurate DiagnosisAFS001SR
PRECAUTIONS FOR DIAGNOSIS

Before performing diagnosis, always read precautions. Refer to BRC-12, "How to Proceed with Diagno-
sis" .

If ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), steering angle sensor, steering system parts or suspension
system parts have been replaced, or if alignment has been adjusted, be sure to adjust neutral position of
steering angle sensor before driving. Refer to BRC-6, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Posi-
tion" .

After diagnosis is finished, be sure to erase memory. Refer to BRC-27, "SELF-DIAGNOSIS" .

When checking continuity and voltage between units, be sure to check for disconnection, looseness,
bend, or collapse of connector terminals. If any malfunction is found, repair or replace connector termi-
nals.

For intermittent symptoms, possible cause is malfunction in harness, harness connector, or terminals.
Move harness, harness connector, and terminals to check for poor connections.

If a circuit tester is used for the check, be careful not to forcibly extend any connector terminal.

To use CONSULT-II to perform self-diagnosis of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), active tests,
or work support, first stop work, then connect CONSULT-II and select “ABS”.

While self-diagnostic results of CONSULT-II shows malfunction, if CONSULT-II active test is performed,
an engine system error may be indicated. In this case, start engine to resume the normal screen.

VDC/TCS/ABS system electronically controls brake operation and engine output. The following symptoms
may be caused by normal operations:
Symptom Symptom description Result
Motor operation noise This is noise of motor inside ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
Slight noise may occur during VDC, TCS, and ABS operation.
Normal
When the vehicle speed goes over 20 km/h (12.5 MPH), motor and
valves operating noise may be heard. It happens only once after IGN
(ignition) is ON. This is a normal status of the system operation check.
System operation check
noise When engine starts, slight “click” noise may be heard from engine room.
This is normal and is part of system operation check. Normal
VDC/TCS operation
(SLIP indicator lamp blink-
ing) TCS may activate momentarily if wheel speed changes when driving
over location where friction coefficient varies, when up/downshifting, or
when fully depressing accelerator pedal.
Normal
Cancel the VDC/TCS
function for the
inspection on a chas-
sis dynamometer.
For inspection of speedometer or other instruments, press
VDC OFF SW to turn VDC/TCS function off.
When accelerator pedal is depressed on a chassis dynamometer (fixed
front-wheel type), vehicle speed will not increase. This is not normal. It is
result of TCS being activated by stationary front wheels. Warning lamp
may also illuminate to indicate “sensor system error”. This is also nor-
mal, and is the result of the stationary front wheels being detected. To be
certain, restart engine, and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more.
Make sure warning lamp does not illuminate.
ABS operation (Longer stop-
ping distance) On roads with low friction coefficients, such as snowy roads or gravel
roads, vehicles with ABS may require a longer stopping distance. There-
fore, when driving on such roads, avoid overconfidence and keep speed
sufficiently low. Normal
Insufficient feeling of accel-
eration Depending on road conditions, driver may feel that feeling of accelera-
tion is insufficient. This is because traction control, which controls
engine and brakes to achieve optimal traction, has the highest priority
(for safety). As a result, there may be times when acceleration is slightly
less than usual for the same accelerator pedal operation. Normal

UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMPPFP:27760
System DescriptionAKS005N8

For the unified meter and A/C amp., the signal required for controlling the combination meter are inte-
grated in the A/C auto amp.

Unified meter and A/C amp. controls each operation for A/C auto amp. For information regarding A/C con-
trol, refer to AT C - 3 0 , "
AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL" in ATC section.

Unified meter and A/C amp. inputs necessary information for combination meter from each unit by CAN
communication and so on.

And unified meter and A/C amp. outputs these signals using communication line (TX, RX) between unified
meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.

The signals required for the distance to empty (DTE) display are centralized in the unified meter and A/C
amp., converted into data, and sent to the display unit (without NAVI) display control unit (with NAVI) using
CAN communication.

Other input signals are also sent to the ECM, TCM, AWD control unit, BCM, display unit (without NAVI)
and display control unit (with NAVI) using CAN communication.

ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM
Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEMPFP:00028
IntroductionABS006KI
The ECM has an on board diagnostic system, which detects malfunctions related to engine sensors or actua-
tors. The ECM also records various emission-related diagnostic information including:
The above information can be checked using procedures listed in the table below.
× : Applicable —: Not applicable
*: When DTC and 1st trip DTC simultaneously appear on the display, they cannot be clearly distinguished from each other.
The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the instrument panel lights up when the same malfunction is detected
in two consecutive trips (Two trip detection logic), or when the ECM enters fail-safe mode. (Refer to EC-109
.)
Two Trip Detection LogicABS006KJ
When a malfunction is detected for the 1st time, 1st trip DTC and 1st trip Freeze Frame data are stored in the
ECM memory. The MIL will not light up at this stage. <1st trip>
If the same malfunction is detected again during the next drive, the DTC and Freeze Frame data are stored in
the ECM memory, and the MIL lights up. The MIL lights up at the same time when the DTC is stored. <2nd
trip> The “trip” in the “Two Trip Detection Logic” means a driving mode in which self-diagnosis is performed
during vehicle operation. Specific on board diagnostic items will cause the ECM to light up or blink the MIL,
and store DTC and Freeze Frame data, even in the 1st trip, as shown below.
× : Applicable —: Not applicable
When there is an open circuit on MIL circuit, the ECM cannot warn the driver by lighting up MIL when there is
malfunction on engine control system.
Therefore, when electrical controlled throttle and part of ECM related diagnoses are continuously detected as
NG for 5 trips, ECM warns the driver that engine control system malfunctions and MIL circuit is open by means
of operating fail-safe function.
