Balancing Wheels (Bonding Weight Type)INFOID:0000000001328926
REMOVAL
Using releasing agent, remove double-faced adhesive tape from the road wheel.
CAUTION:
 Be careful not to scratch th e road wheel during removal.
 After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wi pe clean traces of releasing agent from the road
wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE ADJUSTMENT
 If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting,
select and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for road wheels.
1. Set road wheel on tire balance machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer unbalance values are shown on the tire balance machine indicator, multiply outer unbalance value by 5/3 to determine balance weight t hat should be used. Select the outer balance weight
with a value closest to the calculated value above and inst all it to the designated outer position of, or at the
designated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:
 Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.
 Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the road wheel.
Indicated unbalance value × 5/3 = balance weight to be installed
Calculation example:
23 g (0.81 oz) × 5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) ⇒ 40 g (1.41 oz) bal-
ance weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.
Example:
37.4 ⇒ 35 g (1.23 oz)
37.5 ⇒ 40 g (1.41 oz)

CAUTION:
 After any collision, inspect all seat belt assembli es, including retractors and other attached hard-
wares (I.e. anchor bolt, guide rail set). Nissan recommends to replace all seat belt assemblies in use
during a collision, unless not damaged an d properly operating after minor collision.
Also inspect seat belt assemblies no t in use during a collision, and replace if damaged or improperly
operating.
Seat belt pre-tensioner should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during a frontal colli-
sion where the driver and passenger air bags are deployed.
 If any component of seat belt assembl y is questionable, do not repair.
Replace as seat belt assembly.
 If webbing is cut, frayed, or damaged, replace belt assembly.
 Never oil tongue and buckle.
 Use a genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE
ROOM)
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328870
 IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engi ne Room) integrates the relay box and fuse block
which were originally placed in engine compartment. It c ontrols integrated relay via IPDM E/R control circuit.
 IPDM E/R-integrated control circuit performs ON-OFF operation of relay, CAN communication control, oil
pressure switch signal, and hood switch signal reception, etc.
 It controls operation of each electrical pa rt via ECM, BCM and CAN communication lines.
CAUTION:
None of the IPDM E/R-integr ated relays can be removed.
SYSTEMS CONTROLLED BY IPDM E/R
IPDM E/R receives a request signal fr om each control unit with CAN communication. It controls each system.
CAN COMMUNICATION LINE CONTROL
With CAN communication, by connecting each control uni t using two communication lines (CAN-L line, CAN-H
line), it is possible to transmit maximum amount of in formation with minimum wiring. Each control unit can
transmit and receive data, and reads necessary information only.
Fail- Safe Control
 When CAN communication with other control units is impos sible, IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control. After
CAN communication recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.
 Operation of control parts by IPDM E/R during fail-safe mode is as follows:
IPDM E/R STATUS CONTROL
In order to save power, IPDM E/R switches status by itself based on each operating condition.
1. CAN communication status  CAN communication is normally performed with other control units.
 Individual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.
 When sleep request signal is received from BCM, mode is switched to sleep waiting status.
2. Sleep waiting status  Process to stop CAN communication is activated.

Concept of Auto Active Test
 IPDM E/R actuates auto active test mode when it re ceives door switch signal from BCM via CAN communi-
cation line. Therefore, when auto active test mode is activated successfully, CAN communication between
IPDM E/R and BCM is normal.
 If any of systems controlled by IPDM E/R cannot be operated, possible cause can be easily diagnosed using
auto active test.
