mileage INFINITI QX4 2001 Factory Service Manual

IThe threads in one or more of the converter bolt holes are damaged.
ITransmission failure did not display evidence of damaged or worn internal parts, steel particles or clutch
plate lining material in unit and inside the fluid filter.
IVehicle has been exposed to high mileage (only). The exception may be where the torque converter clutch
dampener plate lining has seen excess wear by vehicles operated in heavy and/or constant traffic, such
as taxi, delivery or police use.
ATF COOLER SERVICENBAT0004S02Replace ATF cooler if excessive foreign material is found in oil pan or clogging strainer.
Replace radiator lower tank (which includes ATF cooler) with a new one and flush cooler line using cleaning
solvent and compressed air. Refer to LC-19, ªREMOVAL AND INSTALLATIONº.
OBD-II SELF-DIAGNOSISNBAT0004S03IA/T self-diagnosis is performed by the TCM in combination with the ECM. The results can be read through
the blinking pattern of the O/D OFF indicator or the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Refer to the table on
AT-38 for the indicator used to display each self-diagnostic result.
IThe self-diagnostic results indicated by the MIL are automatically stored in both the ECM and TCM
memories.
Always perform the procedure ªHOW TO ERASE DTCº on AT-35 to complete the repair and avoid
unnecessary blinking of the MIL.
IThe following self-diagnostic items can be detected using ECM self-diagnostic results mode* only when
the O/D OFF indicator lamp does not indicate any malfunctions.
þ PNP switch
þ A/T 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th gear function
þ A/T TCC S/V function (lock-up)
*: For details of OBD-II, refer to EC-59, ªIntroductionº.
ICertain systems and components, especially those related to OBD, may use the new style slide-
locking type harness connector. For description and how to disconnect, refer to EL-5, ªDescrip-
tionº.
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble DiagnosisNBAT0005When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:
IGI-11, ªHOW TO READ WIRING DIAGRAMSº.
IEL-9, ªPOWER SUPPLY ROUTINGº for power distribution circuit.
When you perform trouble diagnosis, refer to the following:
IGI-35, ªHOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUP IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSISº.

InstallationNBBR0037CAUTION:
IRefill with new brake fluid ªDOT 3º.
INever reuse drained brake fluid.
1. Install caliper assembly.
2. Install brake hose to caliper securely.
3. Install all parts and secure all bolts.
4. Bleed air. Refer to ªBleeding Brake Systemº, BR-8.
Brake Burnishing ProcedureNBBR0086When experiencing soft brake pedal feel at very low mileage, or
after replacing the rotor, burnish the brake pad contact surfaces
according to the following procedures.
CAUTION:
Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic con-
ditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive the vehicle on a straight smooth road at 50 km/h (31
MPH).
2. Use medium brake pedal/foot effort to bring the vehicle to a
complete stop from 50 km/h (31 MPH). Adjust brake pedal/foot
pressure such that vehicle stopping time equals 3 to 5 sec-
onds.
3. To cool the brake system, drive the vehicle at 50 km/h (31
MPH) for 1 minute without stopping.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 10 times or more to complete the burnish-
ing procedure.

IntroductionNBTF0013DESCRIPTIONNBTF0013S01When a malfunction (indicated by the 4WD warning lamp illumination) occurs, collect information first from the
customer about how the malfunction occurs. Then, proceed with the diagnosis presuming it is the cause. Also
inspect the electrical system, paying close attention to other possibilities such as fluid level and leaks.
All-mode 4WD transfer is controlled by transfer control unit and sensors.
If a malfunction occurs in the all-mode 4WD system, the 4WD warning lamp lights up to inform of the system
malfunction. There are two ways to identify the cause of the malfunction.
1) Performing the self-diagnosis. (The 4WD warning lamp will indicate what kind of malfunction has occurred
by flickering.)
2) Performing diagnosis using CONSULT-II.
