HOW TO ERASE EMISSION-RELATED DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATIONNBEC0031S06How to Erase DTC (With CONSULT-II)NBEC0031S0601NOTE:
If the DTC is not for A/T related items (see EC-8), skip steps 2 through 4.
1. If the ignition switch stays ªONº after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ªOFFº once. Wait at least
10 seconds and then turn it ªONº (engine stopped) again.
2. Turn CONSULT-II ªONº and touch ªA/Tº.
3. Touch ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº.
4. Touch ªERASEº. [The DTC in the TCM (Transmission control module) will be erased.] Then touch ªBACKº
twice.
5. Touch ªENGINEº.
6. Touch ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº.
7. Touch ªERASEº. (The DTC in the ECM will be erased.)
IIf DTCs are displayed for both ECM and TCM (Transmission control module), they need to be erased
individually from the ECM and TCM (Transmission control module).

The emission related diagnostic information in the ECM can be erased by selecting ªERASEº in the ªSELF-
DIAG RESULTSº mode with CONSULT-II.
How to Erase DTC (With GST)NBEC0031S0602NOTE:
If the DTC is not for A/T related items (see EC-8), skip step 2.
1. If the ignition switch stays ªONº after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ªOFFº once. Wait at least
10 seconds and then turn it ªONº (engine stopped) again.
2. Perform ªSELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (Without CONSULT-II)º in AT section titled ªTROUBLE
DIAGNOSISº, ªSelf-diagnosisº. (The engine warm-up step can be skipped when performing the diagnosis
only to erase the DTC.)
3. Select Mode 4 with GST (Generic Scan Tool).
The emission related diagnostic information in the ECM can be erased by selecting Mode 4 with GST.
IIf the battery is disconnected, the emission-related diagnostic information will be lost after approx.
24 hours.
IThe following data are cleared when the ECM memory is erased.
1) Diagnostic trouble codes
2) 1st trip diagnostic trouble codes
3) Freeze frame data
4) 1st trip freeze frame data
5) System readiness test (SRT) codes
6) Test values

Actual work procedures are explained using a DTC as an example. Be careful so that not only the DTC, but
all of the data listed above, are cleared from the ECM memory during work procedures.
IVIS (INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM Ð NATS)NBEC0031S08
SEF515Y
IIf the security indicator lights up with the ignition switch in the ªONº position or ªNATS MALFUNC-
TIONº is displayed on ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº screen, perform self-diagnostic results mode with
CONSULT-II using NATS program card. Refer to ªIVIS (Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System Ð NATS)º
in EL section.
IConfirm no self-diagnostic results of IVIS (NATS) is displayed before touching ªERASEº in ªSELF-
DIAG RESULTSº mode with CONSULT-II.
IWhen replacing ECM, initialization of IVIS (NATS) system and registration of all IVIS (NATS) igni-
tion key IDs must be carried out with CONSULT-II using NATS program card.
Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle owner. Regarding the procedures of IVIS (NATS)
initialization and IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT-II operation manual,
IVIS/NVIS.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
DESCRIPTIONNBEC0032
SEF217U
The MIL is located on the instrument panel.
1. The MIL will light up when the ignition switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
IIf the MIL does not light up, refer to EL-114, ªWARNING LAMPSº or see EC-648.
2. When the engine is started, the MIL should go off.
If the MIL remains on, the on board diagnostic system has detected an engine system malfunction.
On Board Diagnostic System FunctionNBEC0032S01The on board diagnostic system has the following two functions.

MALFUNCTION
WARNINGThis is a usual driving condition. When a malfunction is
detected twice in two consecutive driving cycles (two trip
detection logic), the MIL will light up to inform the driver
that a malfunction has been detected.
The following malfunctions will light up or blink the MIL in
the 1st trip.
ICoolant overtemperature enrichment protection
IªMisfire (Possible three way catalyst damage)º
IªClosed loop controlº
IFail-safe mode
Diagnostic Test Mode I Ð Bulb CheckNBEC0032S03In this mode, the MIL on the instrument panel should stay ON. If it remains OFF, check the bulb. Refer to
EL-114, ªWARNING LAMPSº or see EC-648.
Diagnostic Test Mode I Ð Malfunction WarningNBEC0032S04
MIL Condition
ON When the malfunction is detected or the ECM's CPU is malfunctioning.
OFF No malfunction.
OBD System Operation ChartNBEC0033RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MIL, 1ST TRIP DTC, DTC, AND DETECTABLE ITEMSNBEC0033S01IWhen a malfunction is detected for the first time, the 1st trip DTC and the 1st trip freeze frame data are
stored in the ECM memory.
IWhen the same malfunction is detected in two consecutive trips, the DTC and the freeze frame data are
stored in the ECM memory, and the MIL will come on. For details, refer to ªTwo Trip Detection Logicº on
EC-59.
IThe MIL will go off after the vehicle is driven 3 times with no malfunction. The drive is counted only when
the recorded driving pattern is met (as stored in the ECM). If another malfunction occurs while counting,
the counter will reset.
IThe DTC and the freeze frame data will be stored until the vehicle is driven 40 times (driving pattern A)
without the same malfunction recurring (except for Misfire and Fuel Injection System). For Misfire and Fuel
Injection System, the DTC and freeze frame data will be stored until the vehicle is driven 80 times (driv-
ing pattern C) without the same malfunction recurring. The ªTIMEº in ªSELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTSº
mode of CONSULT-II will count the number of times the vehicle is driven.
IThe 1st trip DTC is not displayed when the self-diagnosis results in ªOKº for the 2nd trip.

EXPLANATION FOR DRIVING PATTERNS FOR ªMISFIRE DETERIORATION>º, ªFUEL INJECTION SYSTEMº
NBEC0033S04NBEC0033S0401Driving pattern B means the vehicle operation as follows:
All components and systems should be monitored at least once by the OBD system.
IThe B counter will be cleared when the malfunction is detected once regardless of the driving pattern.
IThe B counter will be counted up when driving pattern B is satisfied without any malfunction.
IThe MIL will go off when the B counter reaches 3. (*2 in ªOBD SYSTEM OPERATION CHARTº)
NBEC0033S0402Driving pattern C means the vehicle operation as follows:
1) The following conditions should be satisfied at the same time:
Engine speed: (Engine speed in the freeze frame data)±375 rpm
Calculated load value: (Calculated load value in the freeze frame data) x (1±0.1) [%]
Engine coolant temperature (T) condition:
IWhen the freeze frame data shows lower than 70ÉC (158ÉF), ªTº should be lower than 70ÉC (158ÉF).
IWhen the freeze frame data shows higher than or equal to 70ÉC (158ÉF), ªTº should be higher than or
equal to 70ÉC (158ÉF).
Example:
If the stored freeze frame data is as follows:
Engine speed: 850 rpm, Calculated load value: 30%, Engine coolant temperature: 80ÉC (176ÉF)
To be satisfied with driving pattern C, the vehicle should run under the following conditions:
Engine speed: 475 - 1,225 rpm, Calculated load value: 27 - 33%, Engine coolant temperature: more than 70ÉC
(158ÉF)
IThe C counter will be cleared when the malfunction is detected regardless of (1).
IThe C counter will be counted up when (1) is satisfied without the same malfunction.
IThe DTC will not be displayed after C counter reaches 80.
IThe 1st trip DTC will be cleared when C counter is counted once without the same malfunction after DTC
is stored in ECM.
