PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006228171
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 severi ty 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 AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoper ative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision that would result in air ba g 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 unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the “SRS AIR BAG”.
 Do not use electrical test equipm ent on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identi fied 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 Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the
ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric 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 minutes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wh eel Rotation after Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000006228172
NOTE:
 Before removing and installing any control units, first tu rn the push-button ignition switch to the LOCK posi-
tion, then disconnect both battery cables.
 After finishing work, confirm that all control unit connectors are connected properly, then re-connect both
battery cables.
 Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If a DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnos is according to self-diagnosis results.
For vehicle with steering lock unit, if the battery is disconnected or discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
cannot be turned.
If turning the steering wheel is required with the batte ry disconnected or discharged, follow the operation pro-
cedure below before starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Turn the push-button ignition switch to ACC position. (At this time, the steering lock will be released.)
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock wil l remain released with both battery cables discon-
nected and the steering wheel can be turned.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.

2. Remove the reservoir tank mounting pin with a pin punch (com- mercial service tool).
3. Remove bolt and remove the reservoir tank and grommets from the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
CAUTION:
Never drop the removed parts. The parts must not be
reused if they are dropped.
4. Slide the clamp and remove brake hose assembly.
5. Remove the brake tube with a flare nut wrench. CAUTION:
Never scratch the flare nut and the brake tube.
6. Remove the cap with a suitable tool (A).
7. Remove grommets and screws ( ) and remove motor/accumu- lator assembly harness.
8. Cut harness band. CAUTION:
Never damage the harness.
9. Remove motor/accumulator assembly from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
10. Remove bushings and collars from motor/accumulator assem- bly.
11. Remove brackets and bushing fr om ABS actuator and electric
unit (control unit).
12. Remove pin mount.
13. After replacing motor/accumulator assembly, always follow the accumulator disposal procedure to discard the motor/accumulator assembly. Refer to BR-33, "
Disposal".
ASSEMBLY
Note the following, and assembly in the reverse order of disassembly.
 Never use mineral oils such as kerosene or gasoline and rubber grease during the cleaning and assembly
process.
 Never drop the removed parts when installing. The parts must not be reused if they are dropped.
 Never allow foreign matter (e.g. dust) and oils ot her than brake fluid to enter the reservoir tank.
 For non reusable parts, refer to BR-28, "
Exploded View".
 When connecting motor/accumulator assembly harness, check the order of harness colors.
 Temporarily tighten the brake tube flare nut to the motor/accumula- tor assembly and ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) by
hand. Then tighten it to the specified torque with a crowfoot and
torque wrench.
CAUTION:
Never scratch the flare nut and the brake tube.
