< SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS >
SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
If possible, drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated. Note any additional information on
the Diagnostic Worksheet regarding the conditions or lo cation of the noise. This information can be used to
duplicate the same conditions when you confirm the repair.
If the noise can be duplicated easily during the test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to dupli-
cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all of the following:
1) Close a door.
2) Tap or push/pull around the area where the noise appears to be coming from.
3) Rev the engine.
4) Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle “twist”.
5) At idle, apply engine load (electrical load, half-cl utch on M/T models, drive position on A/T models).
6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with a rubber hammer.
Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs.
If it is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the v ehicle slowly on an undulating or rough road to stress the
vehicle body.
CHECK RELATED SERVICE BULLETINS
After verifying the customer concern or symptom, chec k ASIST for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) related
to that concern or symptom.
If a TSB relates to the symptom, follo w the procedure to repair the noise.
LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE
1. Narrow down the noise to a general area. To help pi npoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool
(Chassis Ear: J-39570, Engine Ear and mechanics stethoscope).
2. Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the cause of the noise by:
Removing the components in the area that you suspect the noise is coming from.
Do not use too much force when removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fastener can be broken
or lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new noise.
Tapping or pushing/pulling the component that you suspect is causing the noise.
Do not tap or push/pull the component with excessive force, otherwise the noise will be eliminated only tem-
porarily.
Feeling for a vibration with your hand by touching the component(s) that you suspect is (are) causing the
noise.
Placing a piece of paper between components that you suspect are causing the noise.
Looking for loose components and contact marks. Refer to GW-7, "
Inspection Procedure".
REPAIR THE CAUSE
If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component securely.
If the cause is insufficient clearance between components:
- Separate components by repositioning or loos ening and retightening the component, if possible.
- Insulate components with a suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth tape or ure-
thane tape. A Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) is available through your authorized Nissan Parts
Department.
CAUTION:
Do not use excessive force as many components are constructed of plastic and may be damaged.
NOTE:
Always check with the Parts Departm ent for the latest parts information.

< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTIONS
Turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in both directions after compressor service
operation. This distributes equall y lubricant inside the compressor. Let the engine idle and operate
the compressor for one hour after the compressor is installed.
Apply voltage to the new one and check for norma l operation after replacing the compressor magnet
clutch.
LEAK DETECTION DYE
CAUTION:
The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detect ion dye used for locating refrigerant leakages. An
ultraviolet (UV) lamp is required to il luminate the dye when inspecting for leakages.
Wear always fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.
The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacem ent for an electrical leak detector. The fluorescent
dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electrical leak detector to pin-point refriger-
ant leakages.
Read and follow all manufacture’ s operating instructions and precau tions prior to performing the
work for the purpose of safet y and customer’s satisfaction.
A compressor shaft seal should not necessarily be repaired because of dye seepage. The compres-
sor shaft seal should only be repaired after conf irming the leakage with an electrical leak detector.
Remove always any remaining dye from the leakage area after repairs are completed to avoid a mis-
diagnosis during a future service.
Never allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. Clean imme-
diately with the approved dye cl eaner if dye is spilled. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an
extended period of time cannot be removed.
Never spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (eng ine exhaust manifold, etc.).
Never use more than one refrigerant dye bottle [1/4 ounce (7.4 cc)] per A/C system.
Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC- 12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Never use
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R- 12) A/C system, or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection
dye in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system, or A/C system damage may result.
The fluorescent properties of the dye remains fo r three or more years unless a compressor malfunc-
tion occurs.
NOTE:
Identification
Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have a green label.
Vehicles without factory installed fluorescent dye have a blue label.

Illuminate piping joints from different angles us ing UV lamp and check that there is no leakage.
Use a mirror in area that is difficult to see to check refrigerant leakage.
Refrigerant leakage from evaporator can be detected by soaking cotton swab or a similar material with
drain hose water and illuminating it using UV lamp.
Dust, dirt, and packing materials adhesive used for condenser, evaporator, and other locations may flu- oresce. Be careful not to misidentify leakage.
5. Repair or replace parts where refrigerant leak age occurs and wipe off fluorescent leak detection dye.
NOTE:
Completely wipe off fluorescent leak detection dy e from gaps between parts, screw threads, and others
using a cotton swab or similar materials.
6. Use a UV lamp to check that no fluorescent leak detection dye remains after finishing work. WARNING:
Never look directly into UV lamp light source.
NOTE:
For continuous operating time of UV lamp, fo llow the manufacturer operating instructions.
Dust, dirt, and packing materials adhesive used for condenser, evaporator, and other locations may flu-
oresce. Be careful not to misidentify leakage.
CHECK REFRIGERANT LEAKAGE USIN G ELECTRICAL LEAK DETECTOR
WARNING:
Never check refrigerant leakage while the engine is running.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following items so that in accurate checks or misidentifications are avoided.
Never allow refrigerant vapor, shop chemical vapors, cigarette smoke, or others around the vehicle.
Always check refrigerant leakage in a low air flow environment so that refrigerant may not disperse
when leakage occurs.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Connect recovery/recycling/recharging equipment or manifold gauge set to A/C service valve.
3. Check that A/C refrigerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.52 kg/cm
2, 50 psi) or more when temperature is 16 °C
(61 °F) or more. When pressure is lower than the spec ified value, recycle refrigerant completely and fill
refrigerant to the specified level.
NOTE:
Leakages may not be detected if A/C refri gerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.52 kg/cm
2, 50 psi) or less when
temperature is less than 16 °C (61 °F).
4. Clean area where refrigerant leakage check is per formed, and check refrigerant leakage along all sur-
faces of pipe connections and A/C system com ponents using electrical leak detector probe.
CAUTION:
Continue checking when a leakage is found. Always continue and complete checking along all
pipe connections and A/C system co mponents for additional leakage.
When a leakage is detected, clean leakage area using compressed air and check again.
When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, al ways clean inside of drain hose so that the
probe surface may not be exposed to water or dirt.
NOTE:
Always check leakage starting from high-pressure side and continue to low-pressure side.
When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, operate blower fan motor for 15 minutes or more at the maximum fan speed while the engine is stopped, and then insert electrical leak detector probe into drain
hose and hold for 10 minutes or more.
When disconnecting shut-off valve that is connected to A/C service valve, always evacuate remaining
refrigerant so that misidentification can be avoided.
5. Repair or replace parts where refrigerant leak age is detected. (Leakage is detected but leakage area is
unknown. GO TO 6.)
6. Start the engine and set A/C control in the following conditions. A/C switch ON

7. Run the engine at approximately 1,500 rpm for 2 minutes or more.
8. Stop the engine. Check again for refrigerant leakage. GO TO 4.
WARNING:
Be careful not to get burned when the engine is hot.
NOTE:
Start refrigerant leakage check immediately after the engine is stopped.
When refrigerant circulation is stopped, pressure on the low-
pressure side rises gradually, and after this, pressure on the
high-pressure side falls gradually.
The higher the pressure is, the easier it is to find the refriger-
ant leakage.
Recycle RefrigerantINFOID:0000000006276151
WARNING:
Always use HFC-134a for A/C refrigerant. If CFC-12 is accidentally charged, compressor is damaged
due to insufficient lubrication.
Always observe and follow precaution s described on refrigerant container. Incorrect handling may
result in an explosion of refrigerant co ntainer, frostbite, or the loss of eyesight.
Never breathe A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose, or
throat.
Never allow HFC-134a to be exposed to an open flam e or others because it generates poisonous gas
when in contact with high temperature ob jects. Keep workshop well ventilated.
1. Perform lubricant return operation. Refer to HA-22, "
Perform Lubricant Return Operation". (If refrigerant or
lubricant leakage is detected in a large am ount, omit this step, and then GO TO 2.)
CAUTION:
Never perform lubricant return op eration if a large amount of refrigerant or lubricant leakage is
detected.
2. Check gauge pressure readings of recovery/recyc ling/recharging equipment. When remaining pressure
exists, recycle refrigerant from high-pressure hose and low-pressure hose.
NOTE:
Follow manufacturer instructions for the handling or maintenance of the equipment. Never fill the equip-
ment with non-specified refrigerant.
3. Remove A/C service valve cap from the vehicle.
4. Connect recovery/recycling/rechargi ng equipment to A/C service valve.
5. Operate recovery/recycling/recharging equipm ent, and recycle refrigerant from the vehicle.
