Revision: August 20072004 QX56
Basic InspectionEES00116
AIR HOSES
1. Check for pinched or damaged air hoses between the suspension air reservoir and each load leveling rear
air suspension shock absorber. Reposition, repair or replace hoses as necessary.
2. Check the air hose connections at the suspension air reservoir and at the shock absorbers for leaks. If
connections are leaking, repair or replace hoses as necessary.
POWER SYSTEM TERMINAL LOOSENESS AND BATTERY INSPECTION
Make sure the battery positive cable, negative cable and ground connection are not loose. In addition, make
sure the battery is sufficiently charged.
CK SUSP INDICATOR LAMP INSPECTION
1. Make sure the CK SUSP indicator lamp turns on for approximately 2 seconds when the ignition switch is
turned ON. If it does not, check the combination meter. Refer to DI-5, "
COMBINATION METERS" .
2. Make sure the lamp turns off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON. If the lamp
does not turn off, conduct self-diagnosis of the suspension control unit.
3. After conducting the self-diagnosis, be sure to erase the error memory. Refer to RSU-13, "

Removal and InstallationEES0011V
REMOVAL
1. Remove the rear LH interior trim panel. Refer to EI-34, "BODY SIDE TRIM" .
2. Disconnect the battery negative terminal.
3. Disconnect the suspension control unit electrical connector.
4. Remove the two bolts and remove the suspension control unit.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Initialization ProcedureEES0011W
1. If control unit has been replaced, proceed to step 2. If control unit has not been replaced, use CONSULT-
II “CLEAR HEIGHT INI” work support function to clear initialization flag and value. The CK SUSP warning
lamp should illuminate. Using CONSULT-II “EXHAUST SOLENOID” active test, release the air pressure
from the rear load leveling air suspension system.
2. Roll vehicle forward and backward.
3. Use CONSULT-II “ADJUST HEIGHT INI” work support function to set initialization condition.
4. Confirm that CK SUSP warning lamp is OFF.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EHS000VP
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.
Precautions for Seat Belt ServiceEHS000VQ
CAUTION:

Before removing the seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, turn the ignition switch OFF, disconnect
both battery cables and wait at least 3 minutes.

After replacing or reinstalling seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, or reconnecting seat belt pre-ten-
sioner assembly connector, ensure entire SRS operates properly. Refer to SRS-20, "
SRS Opera-
tion Check" .

Do not disassemble buckle or seat belt assembly.

Do not reuse seat belt anchor bolts after removal. Replace with new ones.

Replace anchor bolts if they are deformed or worn out.

Never oil tongue and buckle.

If any component of seat belt assembly is questionable, do not repair. Replace the whole seat belt
assembly.

If webbing is cut, frayed, or damaged, replace seat belt assembly.

When replacing seat belt assembly, use a genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.
AFTER A COLLISION
WAR NIN G:

Inspect all seat belt assemblies including retractors and attaching hardware after any collision.

NISSAN recommends that all seat belt assemblies in use during a collision be replaced unless the
collision was minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly. Failure to do
so could result in serious personal injury in an accident. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be replaced if either damage or improper operation is noted. Seat belt pre-
tensioner should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during a frontal collision in which
the air bags are deployed.
Replace any seat belt assembly (including anchor bolts) if:

The seat belt was in use at the time of a collision (except for minor collisions and the belts, retractors and
buckles show no damage and continue to operate properly).

The seat belt was damaged in an accident. (i.e., torn webbing, bent retractor or guide, etc.)

The seat belt attaching point was damaged in an accident. Inspect the seat belt attaching area for damage
or distortion and repair as necessary before installing a new seat belt assembly.

Anchor bolts are deformed or worn out.

The seat belt pre-tensioner should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during the collision in
which the air bags are deployed.

SEAT BELTS
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
REMOVAL OF SEAT BELT RETRACTOR
CAUTION:

Before servicing SRS, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect both battery cables and wait at least
3 minutes.
1. Remove the center pillar upper/lower finishers. Refer to EI-34, "
BODY SIDE TRIM" .
2. Remove the seat belt retractor anchor bolts and seat belt retractor and belt assembly.

On RH side, disconnect the seat belt tension sensor.
3. Disconnect the seat belt pre-tensioner electrical connector.
CAUTION:

For installing/removing seat belt pre-tensioner connector,
insert a thin screwdriver wrapped in tape into the notch, lift
the lock and remove the connector.

Install the connector with the lock raised, and push the lock
into the connector.
INSTALLATION OF SEAT BELT RETRACTOR
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Install the seat belt retractor and belt assembly upper bolt first.

Ensure that seat belt height adjuster is locked in the lowest position during installation.
