Check all around the service valves. Ensure service valve caps are secured on the service valves (to
prevent leaks).
NOTE:
After removing A/C manifold gauge set from service valves, wipe any residue from valves to prevent any
false readings by leak detector.
• Cooling unit (Evaporator)
With engine OFF, turn blower fan on “High” for at least 15 seconds to dissipate any refrigerant trace in
the cooling unit. Wait a minimum of 10 minutes accumulation time (refer to the manufacturer’s recom-
mended procedure for actual wait time) before inserting the leak detector probe into the drain hose.
Keep the probe inserted for at least 10 seconds. Use caution not to contaminate the probe tip with water
or dirt that may be in the drain hose.
5. If a leak detector detects a leak, verify at least once by blowing compressed air into area of suspected
leak, then repeat check as outlined above.
6. Do not stop when one leak is found. Continue to check for additional leaks at all system components.
If no leaks are found, perform steps 7-10.
7. Start engine.
8. Set the heater A/C control as follows;
a. A/C switch: ON
b. Mode control dial position: VENT (Ventilation)
c. Intake door lever position: Recirculation
d. Max. cold temperature
e. Fan speed: High
9. Run engine at 1,500 rpm for at least 2 minutes.
10. Turn engine off and perform leak check again following steps 4
through 6 above.
Refrigerant leaks should be checked immediately after stopping
the engine. Begin with the leak detector at the compressor. The
pressure on the high-pressure side will gradually drop after
refrigerant circulation stops and pressure on the low-pressure
side will gradually rise, as shown in the graph. Some leaks are
more easily detected when pressure is high.
11. Before connecting recovery/recycling equipment to vehicle,
check recovery/recycling equipment gauges. No refrigerant
pressure should be displayed. If pressure is displayed, recover
refrigerant from equipment lines.
12. Discharge A/C system using approved refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment. Repair the leaking fitting
or component if necessary.
13. Evacuate and recharge A/C system and perform the leak test to confirm no refrigerant leaks.
14. Perform A/C performance test to ensure system works properly.

SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
The following materials, not available through NISSAN Parts Department, 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 will be visible or not fit.
Note: Will only last a few months.
SILICONE SPRAY
Use when grease cannot be applied.
DUCT TAPE
Use to eliminate movement.
CONFIRM THE REPAIR
Confirm that the cause of a 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.
Generic Squeak and Rattle TroubleshootingINFOID:0000000001704189
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 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 apply-
ing felt cloth tape or silicone spray (in hard to reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate wiring har-
ness.
CAUTION:
Do not use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or rattle. If you saturate the area with silicone, you will
not be able to recheck the repair.
CENTER CONSOLE
Components to pay attention to 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 procedures also apply to the center console.
DOORS
Pay attention to the:
1. Finisher and inner panel making a slapping noise
2. Inside handle escutcheon to door finisher
3. Wiring harnesses tapping
4. Door striker out of alignment causing a popping noise on starts and stops
Tapping or moving the components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. You can usually insulate the areas 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 owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid bumpers out of adjustment

Then the sunroof will tilt up/slide closed.
TILT DOWN/SLIDE OPEN OPERATION
When down/open switch is pressed, ground is supplied
• to sunroof motor assembly terminal 5
• through sunroof switch terminal 1
• through sunroof switch terminal 2
• through grounds M57 and M61.
Then the sunroof will tilt down/slide open.
AUTO OPERATION
The power sunroof AUTO feature makes it possible to slide open and slide closed or tilt up and tilt down the
sunroof without holding the sunroof switch in the UP/CLOSE or DOWN/OPEN position.
RETAINED POWER OPERATION
When the ignition switch is turned to OFF position from ON position, power is supplied for 45 seconds
• through BCM terminal 68
• to sunroof motor assembly terminal 9.
When power is supplied, the sunroof can be operated.
The retained power operation is canceled when the front door LH or RH is opened.
RAP signal period can be changed by CONSULT-III. Refer to RF-16, "
Work Support" .
ANTI-PINCH FUNCTION
The CPU (central processing unit) of sunroof motor assembly monitors the sunroof motor operation and the
sunroof position (fully-closed or other) by the signals from sunroof motor.
When sunroof motor detects an interruption during the following slide close and tilt down operation, sunroof
switch controls the motor for open and the sunroof will operate until it reaches full up position (during tilt down
operation) or 125 mm (4.92 in) or more in an open direction (during slide close operation).
• close operation and tilt down when ignition switch is in the ON position.
• close operation and tilt down during retained power operation.
INITIALIZATION FAILURE CONDITIONS
Initialization and teaching of system should be conducted if the following conditions exist:
• sunroof will only move in the UP/CLOSE direction, having a step by step motion
• sunroof does not have any auto operation.
INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE
If the sunroof does not close or open automatically, use the following procedure to return sunroof operation to
normal.
1. Press the switch to the UP/CLOSE position to tilt the sunroof up fully. When the sunroof reaches the full tilt
up position it will back up a few millimeters and stop.
2. Release the UP/CLOSE switch.
3. Within 5 seconds of releasing the UP/CLOSE switch, press and hold the UP/CLOSE switch again. The
sunroof will move to the full open position and back to the closed position.
NOTE:
If the UP/CLOSE switch is released anytime during this teaching process, all learned profile data will be dis-
carded and the procedure will have to be started over.
4. Release the UP/CLOSE switch. Do not disconnect power for at least two seconds. The sunroof is now ini-
tialized and taught.
Initializing procedure is complete. Confirm proper operation of the sunroof (slide open, slide closed, tilt up, tilt
down).
RE-TEACHING CONDITIONS
Re-teaching of system should be conducted if any of the following conditions exist:
• the sunroof is manually operated using the sunroof wrench with the battery discharged or disconnected.
• the sunroof is manually operated using the sunroof wrench with the key switch in the OFF position and
retained power timed out (after approximately 45 seconds or with a front door open).
• the sunroof motor assembly is replaced with a new one.
• the sunroof motor is removed from the sunroof assembly and operated before it is reinstalled.
