1. Connect the oil pressure gauge [SST: KV48103500 (J-26357)] and the oil pressure gauge adapter [SST: KV48102500 (J-
33914)] between oil pump discharge connector and high-pres-
sure hose. Bleed air from the hydraulic circuit while opening
valve fully. Refer to ST-30, "
Inspection".
2. Start engine. Run engine until oil temperature reaches 50 to 80°C (122 to 176 °F).
CAUTION:
 Leave the valve of the oil pressure gauge fully open while
starting and running engine. If engine is started with the
valve closed, the hydraulic pressure in oil pump goes up
to the relief pressure along with unusual increase of oil
temperature.
 Be sure to keep hose clear of belts and other parts when engine is started.
3. Fully close the oil pressure gauge valve with engine at idle and measure the relief oil pressure.
CAUTION:
Never keep valve closed for 10 seconds or longer.
4. Open the valve slowly after measuring. Repair oil pump if the relief oil pressure is outside the standard. Refer to ST-50, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
5. Disconnect the oil pressure gauge from hydraulic circuit.
6. When installing eye bolt (1) and copper washer (2) to oil pump (3), refer to the figure.
CAUTION:
 Never reuse copper washers.
 Apply power steering fluid to around copper washer, theninstall eye bolt.
 Install eye bolt with eye join t (assembled to high pressure
hose) (B) protrusion (A) facing with pump side cutout, and
then tighten it to the specifi ed torque after tightening by
hand. Refer to ST-54, "
Exploded View".
 Securely insert harness connector to pressure sensor.
7. Check fluid level, fluid leakage and air bleeding hydraulic sys- tem after the installation. Refer to ST-30, "
Inspection".
Relief oil pressure : Refer to
ST-58, "
Relief Oil Pres-
sure".

1.COLLECT THE INFORMATION FROM THE CUSTOMER
It is also important to clarify customer complaints before inspection. First of all, reproduce symptoms and
understand them fully. Ask customer about his/her complaints carefully. In some cases, it is necessary to
check symptoms by driving vehicle with customer.
CAUTION:
Customers are not professional. It is danger ous to make an easy guess like “maybe the customer
means that...,” or “maybe the cu stomer mentions this symptom”.
>> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK THE STATUS
1. Power steering fluid leakage and check the power steering fluid level. Refer to ST-30, "
Inspection".
2. Check the drive belt tension. Refer to EM-20, "
Checking".
3. Check the power steering gear for damages, cracks and fluid leakage. Refer to ST-46, "
Inspection".
4. Check the relief oil pressure. Refer to ST-52, "
Inspection".
>> GO TO 3.
3.DIAGNOSIS CHART BY SYMPTOM
Perform the diagnosis by symptom. Refer to STC-22, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
>> GO TO 4.
4.FINAL CHECK
Check the input/output standard values for the power steering control unit.
Are the power steering control unit input/output values within standard ranges respectively?
YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> GO TO 2.

VALUES ON DIAGNOSIS TOOL
NOTE:
1. The CONSULT-III electrically displays shift timi
ng and lock-up timing (that is, operation timing of each
solenoid).
Check for time difference between actual shift timi ng and the CONSULT-III display. If the difference is
noticeable, mechanical parts (except solenoids, sens ors, etc.) may be malfunctioning. Check mechanical
parts in accordance with the specified diagnostic procedures.
2. Shift schedule (that implies gear position) on CONSULT-III may slightly differ from that is described in Ser-
vice Manual. This occurs because of the reasons as per the following:
- Actual shift schedule has more or less tolerance or allowance
- Shift schedule in Service Manual refers to the point where shifting starts
- Gear position on CONSULT-III indicates the point where shifting completes
3. Display of solenoid valves on CONSULT-III changes at t he start of shifting, while gear position is displayed
upon completion of shifting (which is computed by TCM).

CAUTION:
 Use only Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF. Never mix with other ATF.
 Using ATF other than Genuine NI
SSAN Matic S ATF will cause deteri oration in driveability and A/T
durability, and may damage the A/T, which is not covered by the INFINITI new vehicle limited war-
ranty.
 When filling ATF, be careful not to scatte r heat generating parts such as exhaust.
