NISSAN ALMERA 2001 Service Manual

DescriptionNJEC0045Intermittent incidents (I/I) may occur. In many cases, the problem resolves itself (the part or circuit function
returns to normal without intervention). It is important to realize that the symptoms described in the custom-
er's complaint often do not recur on DTC (1st trip) visits. Realize also that the most frequent cause of I/I
occurrences is poor electrical connections. Because of this, the conditions under which the incident occurred
may not be clear. Therefore, circuit checks made as part of the standard diagnostic procedure may not indi-
cate the specific problem area.
COMMON I/I REPORT SITUATIONSNJEC0045S01
STEP in Work Flow Situation
IIThe CONSULT-II is used. The SELF-DIAG RESULTS screen shows time data other than ª0º or
ª1tº.
III The symptom described by the customer does not recur.
IV (1st trip) DTC data does not appear during the DTC Confirmation Procedure.
VI The Diagnostic Procedure for PXXXX does not indicate the problem area.

ECM TERMINALS AND REFERENCE VALUENJEC0048Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.
