CAUTION:
Perform when the engine is cold.
2. Remove the air duct and resonator assembly. Refer to EM-14, "
REMOVAL" .
3. Remove the engine room cover using power tool.
4. Disconnect the heater hose (heater core side).
5. Remove the heater hose bracket.
6. Disconnect the water cut valve connector.
7. Remove the water cut valve.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Place a thread so that it is caught in the valve of the thermostat.
Immerse fully in a container filled with water. Heat while stirring.

The valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the
valve opens and falls from the thread.

Continue heating. Check the full-open lift amount.

After checking the full-open lift amount, lower the water temper-
ature and check the valve closing temperature.
Standard values:
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Installation of Thermostat

Install the thermostat with the whole circumference of each
flange part fit securely inside the rubber ring as shown.

Install the thermostat with the jiggle valve facing upwards.
Installation of Water Outlet Pipe and Heater Pipe
First apply a neutral detergent to the O-rings, then quickly insert the insertion parts of the water outlet pipe and
heater pipe into the installation holes.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Check for leaks of the engine coolant. Refer to CO-10, "CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS" .

Start and warm up the engine. Visually check for leaks of the engine coolant.

Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EKS00BBR
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.
WA RN ING:

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.
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble Diagnosis EKS00BBS
When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:

Refer to GI-15, "How to Read Wiring Diagrams" .

Refer to PG-4, "POWER SUPPLY ROUTING CIRCUIT" for power distribution circuit.
When you perform trouble diagnosis, refer to the following:

Refer to GI-11, "HOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUPS IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSES" .

Refer to GI-27, "How to Perform Efficient Diagnosis for an Electrical Incident" .

COMBINATION METERSPFP:24814
System DescriptionEKS00BBU
UNIFIED METER CONTROL UNIT

Speedometer, odometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, voltage gauge and water tempera-
ture gauge are controlled by the unified meter control unit, which is built into the combination meter.

Warning indicators are controlled by signals drawn from the CAN communication system, BCM (body con-
trol module), and components connected directly to the combination meter.

Digital meter is adopted for odometer/trip meters*, as well as the A/T position indicator display.
*The record of the odometer is kept even if the battery cable is disconnected.

Odometer/trip meters and A/T indicator segments can be checked in diagnosis mode.

Meters/gauges can be checked in diagnosis mode.
Illumination control
The unified meter control unit outputs the speedometer, odometer/trip meters, tachometer, oil pressure gauge,
voltage gauge, A/T indicator, fuel and temperature gauge lighting when the ignition switch is turned on. When
the lighting switch is turned on, the illumination control switch can be used to adjust the brightness of the com-
bination meter illumination and the odometer/trip meters and meter illumination. When the ignition switch is
turned from the OFF to the ON position, the combination meter dial lighting will remain off for 0.7 seconds. For
additional combination meter illumination control information, refer to LT-152, "
System Description" .

COMBINATION METERS
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT
Power is supplied at all times

through 10A fuse [No.19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 8.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No.14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 24.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No.4, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to combination meter terminal 1.
Ground is supplied

to combination meter terminal 17

through body grounds M57, M61 and M79.
WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The water temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature.
ECM provides an engine coolant temperature signal to combination meter via CAN communication lines.
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
The engine oil pressure gauge indicates the engine oil pressure.
The engine oil pressure gauge is regulated by the unified meter control unit and input from the oil pressure
sensor.
A/T OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The A/T oil temperature gauge indicates the A/T fluid temperature.
TCM (transmission control module) provides an A/T fluid temperature signal to combination meter via CAN
communication lines.
V O LTA G E G A U G E
The voltage gauge indicates the battery/charging system voltage.
The voltage gauge is regulated by the unified meter control unit.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
ECM provides an engine speed signal to combination meter via CAN communication lines.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge is regulated by the unified meter control unit and a variable resistor signal supplied

to combination meter terminal 15

through fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump terminal 2

through fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump terminal 5

from combination meter terminal 16.
SPEEDOMETER
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) provides a vehicle speed signal to the combination meter via CAN
communication lines.
CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Refer to LAN-5, "CAN COMMUNICATION" .
