Used to insulate where movement does not occur. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
 68370-4B000: 15 ×25 mm (0.591 ×0.984 in) pad
 68239-13E00: 5 mm (0.197 in) wide tape roll
The following materials, not found in the kit, can also be used to repair squeaks and rattles.
UHMW (TEFLON) TAPE
Insulates where slight movement is present. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
SILICONE GREASE
Used in place of UHMW tape that is visible or does not fit. Only lasts a few months.
SILICONE SPRAY
Used when grease cannot be applied.
DUCT TAPE
Used to eliminate movement.
CONFIRM THE REPAIR
After repair is complete, test drive the vehicle to confi rm that the cause of noise is repaired by test driving the
vehicle. Operate the vehicle under the same conditions as when the noise originally occurred. Refer to the
notes on the Diagnostic Worksheet.
Inspection ProcedureINFOID:0000000006425524
Refer to Table of Contents for specific component removal and installation information.
INSTRUMENT PANEL
Most incidents are caused by contact and movement between:
1. The cluster lid A and instrument panel
2. Acrylic lens and combination meter housing
3. Instrument panel to front pillar garnish
4. Instrument panel to windshield
5. Instrument panel mounting pins
6. Wiring harnesses behind the combination meter
7. A/C defroster duct and duct joint
These incidents can usually be located by tapping or moving the components to duplicate the noise or by
pressing on the components while driving to stop the noise. Most of these incidents can be repaired by
applying felt cloth tape or silicon spray (in hard to reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate
wiring harness.
CAUTION:
Never use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or ra ttle. If the area is saturated with silicone, the
recheck of repair becomes impossible.
CENTER CONSOLE
Components to check include:
1. Shifter assembly cover to finisher
2. A/C control unit and cluster lid C
3. Wiring harnesses behind audio and A/C control unit
The instrument panel repair and isolation pr ocedures also apply to the center console.
DOORS
Check the following items:
1. Finisher and inner panel making a slapping noise
2. Inside handle escutcheon connection to door finisher
3. Wiring harnesses tapping
4. Door striker out of alignment causing a popping noise on starts and stops
Tapping, moving the components, or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. The areas can usually be insula ted with felt cloth tape or insulator foam blocks from
the NISSAN Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) to repair the noise.
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the customer.
In addition check for the following items:
