PRECAUTIONS
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
PRECAUTIONS PFP:00011
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EKS0079M
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.
WAR NIN G:

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.

General precautions for service operationsEKS007RV

Never work with wet hands.

Xenon headlamp includes high voltage generating part. Be sure
to disconnect battery negative cable (negative terminal) or
power fuse before removing, installing, or touching the xenon
headlamp (including lamp bulb).

Turn the lighting switch OFF before disconnecting and connect-
ing the connector.

When turning the xenon headlamp on and while it is illuminated,
never touch the harness, bulb, and socket of the headlamp.

When checking the headlamp on/off operation, check it on vehi-
cle and with the power connected to the vehicle-side connector.

Do not touch the headlamp bulb glass surface with bare hands or allow oil or grease to get on it. Do not
touch the headlamp bulb just after the headlamp is turned off, because it is very hot.

Install the xenon headlamp bulb socket correctly. If it is installed
improperly, high-voltage leak or corona discharge may occur
that can melt the bulb, connector, and housing. Do not illuminate
the xenon headlamp bulb out of the headlamp housing. Doing
so can cause fire and harm your eyes.

When the bulb has burned out, wrap it in a thick vinyl bag and
discard. Do not break the bulb.

Leaving the bulb removed from the headlamp housing for a long
period of time can deteriorate the performance of the lens and
reflector (dirt, clouding). Always prepare a new bulb and have it
on hand when replacing the bulb.

Do not use organic solvent (paint thinner or gasoline) to clean
lamps and to remove old sealant.
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble DiagnosisEKS0079O
When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:

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

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

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

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

to combination meter terminal 8, and

through 50A fusible link (letter f , located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to BCM terminal 70.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

to ignition relay, located in the IPDM E/R, and

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

to combination meter terminal 24, and

through 10A fuse (No. 59, located in the fuse and relay box)

to BCM terminal 38.
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminal 67 and

to combination meter terminal 17

through grounds M57, M61 and M79, and

to IPDM E/R terminals 38 and 59

through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
Low Beam Operation
With the lighting switch in 2ND position, the BCM receives input requesting the headlamps to illuminate. This
input is communicated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN communication lines. The CPU of the IPDM E/R con-
trols the headlamp low relay coil. When energized, this relay directs power

through 15A fuse (No. 41, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 54

to front combination lamp RH terminal 5, and

through 15A fuse (No. 40, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 52

to front combination lamp LH terminal 5.
Ground is supplied

to front combination lamp LH and RH terminal 1

through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
With power and ground supplied, low beam headlamps illuminate.
High Beam Operation/Flash-to-Pass Operation
With the lighting switch in 2ND position and placed in HIGH or PASS position, the BCM receives input request-
ing the headlamp high beams to illuminate. This input is communicated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN com-
munication lines. The CPU of the combination meter controls the ON/OFF status of the HIGH BEAM indicator.
The CPU of the IPDM E/R controls the headlamp high relay coil. When energized, this relay directs power

through 10A fuse (No. 34, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 56

to front combination lamp RH terminal 6, and

through 10A fuse (No. 35, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 55

to front combination lamp LH terminal 6.
Ground is supplied

to front combination lamp LH and RH terminal 2

through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
With power and ground supplied, the high beam headlamps illuminate.
XENON HEADLAMP
Xenon type headlamp is adopted to the low beam headlamps. Xenon bulbs do not use a filament. Instead,
they produce light when a high voltage current is passed between two tungsten electrodes through a mixture
of xenon (an inert gas) and certain other metal halides. In addition to added lighting power, electronic control
of the power supply gives the headlamps stable quality and tone color.
Following are some of the many advantages of the xenon type headlamp.
