Disassembly and Assembly of Brake Caliper AssemblyNFS000SG
NOTE:
Do not remove torque member, pads, shims, shim covers, and pad retainers when disassembling and assem-
bling cylinder body assembly.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove sliding pin bolt, and then remove cylinder body from torque member.
CAUTION:
Do not drop pads, shims, shim covers and pad retainers from torque member.
2. Remove sliding pins and sliding pin boots from torque member.
3. Place a wooden block as shown in the figure, and blow air from
union bolt mounting hole to remove pistons and piston boots.
CAUTION:
Do not get fingers caught in the pistons.
4. Remove piston seal from cylinder body using a flat-bladed
screwdriver.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage a cylinder inner wall.
INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Cylinder Body
Check the inner wall of cylinder for corrosion, wear, and damage. If a malfunction is detected, replace cylinder
body.
CAUTION:
Clean cylinder body using new brake fluid. Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene.
To r q u e M e m b e r
Check torque member for wear, cracks, and damage. Replace if there are.
Piston
Check the piston surface for corrosion, wear, and damage. If a malfunction is detected, replace applicable
part.
CAUTION:
A piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with sandpaper.
Sliding Pin, Sliding Pin Bolt, and Sliding Pin Boot
Check sliding pin, sliding pin bolt, and sliding pin boot for wear, damage, and cracks. Replace if there are.

WARNING:
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of air borne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:

While removing cylinder body, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.

It is not necessary to remove bolts on torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or
replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.

Do not damage piston boot.

If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.

Always replace shim and shim covers as a set when replacing brake pads.

Keep rotor free from brake fluid.

Burnish the brake pads and disc rotor mutually contacting surfaces after refinishing or replacing
rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-33, "
BRAKE
BURNISHING PROCEDURE" .
Removal and Installation of Brake PadNFS000SJ
REMOVAL
1. Remove tires from vehicle with power tool.
2. Remove lower sliding pin bolt.
3. Hang cylinder body with a wire, and remove pads, pad retainers, shims, and shim cover from torque mem-
ber.
CAUTION:
Deform pad retainer when removing pad retainer from torque member.
INSTALLATION
1. Apply PBC (Poly Butyl Cuprysil) grease or silicone-based grease to between pad and shim. Install inner
shim, inner shim cover to inner pad, and outer shim, outer shim cover to outer pad.
2. Install pad retainers and pads to torque member.
3. Press in piston until pads can be installed, and then install cylin-
der body to torque member.
CAUTION:
In the case of replacing a pad with new one, check a brake
fluid level in the reservoir tank because brake fluid returns
to master cylinder reservoir tank when pressing piston in.
NOTE:
Use a disc brake piston tool (commercial service tool) to easily
press piston.
4. Install upper sliding pin bolt and tighten to the specified torque.
Refer to BR-28, "
Components" .
5. Check rear disc brake for drag.
6. Install tires to vehicle.
3: Apply polyglycol ether based lubricant.
: Apply brake fluid.

SERVICE INFORMATION FOR ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
Control Units and Electrical PartsNAS0008Y
PRECAUTIONS

Never reverse polarity of battery terminals.

Install only parts specified for a vehicle.

Before replacing the control unit, check the input and output and functions of the component parts.

Do not apply excessive force when disconnecting a connector.

Do not apply excessive shock to the control unit by dropping or
hitting it.

Be careful to prevent condensation in the control unit due to
rapid temperature changes and do not let water or rain get on it.
If water is found in the control unit, dry it fully and then install it in
the vehicle.

Be careful not to let oil to get on the control unit connector.

Avoid cleaning the control unit with volatile oil.

Do not disassemble the control unit, and do not remove the
upper and lower covers.

When using a DMM, be careful not to let test probes get close to
each other to prevent the power transistor in the control unit
from damaging battery voltage because of short circuiting.

When checking input and output signals of the control unit, use
the specified check adapter.

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
PFP:284B7
System DescriptionNKS004E2

IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room) integrates the relay box and fuse block
which were originally placed in engine compartment. It controls integrated relay via IPDM E/R control cir-
cuit.

IPDM E/R-integrated control circuit performs ON-OFF operation of relay, CAN communication control and
oil pressure switch signal reception, etc.

It controls operation of each electrical part via ECM, BCM and CAN communication lines.
CAUTION:
None of the IPDM E/R-integrated relays can be removed.
SYSTEMS CONTROLLED BY IPDM E/R
1. Lamp control
Using CAN communication, it receives signal from BCM and controls the following lamps:

Headlamps (HI, LO)

Tail, parking and license plate lamps

Front fog lamps
2. Daytime light relay control (for Canada models)
Using CAN communication, it receives signals from BCM and controls the daytime light relay.
3. Wiper control
Using CAN communication, it receives signals from BCM and controls the front wipers.
4. Rear window defogger relay control
Using CAN communication, it receives signals from BCM and controls the rear window defogger relay.
5. A/C compressor control
Using CAN communication, it receives signals from ECM and controls the A/C relay.
6. Cooling fan control
Using CAN communication, it receives signals from ECM and controls cooling fan via cooling fan control
module.
7. Horn control
Using CAN communication, it receives signals from BCM and controls horn relay.
8. Starter motor relay control
Using CAN communication, it receives signals from BCM and controls starter motor relay.
9. Alternator control
Using CAN communication, it receives signal from ECM and controls power generation voltage.
CAN COMMUNICATION LINE CONTROL
With CAN communication, by connecting each control unit using two communication lines (CAN L-line, CAN
H-line), it is possible to transmit maximum amount of information with minimum wiring. Each control unit can
transmit and receive data, and reads necessary information only.
1. Fail-safe control

When CAN communication with other control units is impossible, 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:
Controlled system Fail-safe mode
Headlamps

With the ignition switch ON, the headlamp low relay is ON.

With the ignition switch OFF, the headlamp low relay is OFF.
Tail, parking and
license plate lamps

With the ignition switch ON, the tail lamp relay is ON.

With the ignition switch OFF, the tail lamp relay is OFF.
Cooling fan

With the ignition switch ON, the cooling fan HI operates.

With the ignition switch OFF, the cooling fan stops.
Front wiperUntil the ignition switch is turned off, the front wiper LO and HI remains in the same status it was in just
before fail−safe control was initiated.
