1. Make sure the crankshaft key and RH bank camshaft dowel pin
and LH bank camshaft dowel pin are facing in the direction
shown.
2. Install the camshaft sprockets. • Install the intake camshaft sprocket (A) and exhaust camshaftsprockets (B) by selectively us ing the groove of the dowel pin
according to the bank. (Common part used for both banks.)
• Lock the hexagonal part of the camshaft in the same way as for removal, and tighten the bolts.
• A = I : Intake
• B = V: Exhaust
3. Install the crankshaft sprockets for both banks. • Install LH bank crankshaft sprocket (B) and RH bank crank-shaft sprocket (C) so that their flange side (A) (the larger diam-
eter side without teeth) faces in the direction shown.
NOTE:
The same parts are used but facing directions are different.
4. Install the timing chains and associated parts. • Align the alignment mark on each sprocket and the timing chain for installation.
CAUTION:
• Before installing timing chain tensioner, it is possible to change the position of alignment mark
on timing chain and each sprocket . After the alignment marks are aligned, keep them aligned
by holding them by hand.
• Install the slack guides and tension guides onto the correct side by checking the identification mark on
the surface.
• Install the timing chain tensioner with the plunger locked in with the stopper pin.
CAUTION:
• Before and after the installation of the timing chain tensioner, make sure that the alignment
mark on the timing chain is not out of alignment.
• After installing the timing chain tensioner, remove the stopp er pin to release the tensioner.
Make sure the tensioner is released.
• To avoid chain-link skipping of the timing chain, do not move crankshaft or camshafts until the
front cover is installed.
5. In the same way as for the RH bank, install the timing chain and associated parts on the LH bank.
6. Install the oil pump.

c. Install the RH bank timing chain tensioner cover onto the front cover.
• Apply liquid gasket as shown.Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-15, "

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000004857579
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR 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 w hether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, 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 performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minu tes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering W heel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000004857585
NOTE:
• This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
• Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK ″ position.
• Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery pow er is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC ″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.

TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
System DiagramINFOID:0000000001547110
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547111
TURN SIGNAL OPERATION
When the turn signal switch is in LH or RH position with the ignition switch in ON position, the BCM detects the
TURN RH or TURN LH ON request. The BCM outputs the flasher signal to the respective turn signal lamp.
The BCM also sends a turn indicator signal ON reques t via the CAN communication lines to the combination
meter. The combination meter then activates the appropriate turn signal indicator and audible buzzer.
HAZARD LAMP OPERATION
When the hazard switch is in ON position, the BCM det ects the hazard switch signal ON. The BCM outputs the
flasher signal (right and left). The BCM sends a hazar d indicator signal ON request via the CAN communica-
tion lines to the combination meter. The combination meter then activates the hazard indicator and audible
buzzer.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY OPERATION
The remote keyless entry receiver transmits a hazar d request signal to the BCM, then BCM controls hazard
lamps.
