NISSAN PATROL 2000 Electronic Repair Manual

DESCRIPTION FOR WORK FLOW
STEP DESCRIPTION
STEP IGet detailed information about the conditions and the environment when the incident/symptom occurred using
the ªDIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEETº, EC-1045.
STEP IIBefore confirming the concern, check and write down (print out using CONSULT-II) the DTC, then erase the
DTC. Refer to EC-1032.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-1076.
Study the relationship between the cause, specified by DTC, and the symptom described by the customer. (The
ªSymptom Matrix Chartº will be useful. Refer to EC-1055.) Also check related service bulletins for information.
STEP IIITry to confirm the symptom and under what conditions the incident occurs.
The ªDIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEETº is useful to verify the incident. Connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA
MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-1076.
If the malfunction code is detected, skip STEP IV and perform STEP V.
STEP IVTry to detect the DTC by driving in (or performing) the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº. Check and read the DTC
by using CONSULT-II.
During the DTC verification, be sure to connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG)
mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-1076.
In case the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº is not available, perform the ªOverall Function Checkº instead. The
DTC cannot be displayed by this check, however, this simplified ªcheckº is an effective alternative.
The ªNGº result of the ªOverall Function Checkº is the same as the DTC detection.
STEP VTake the appropriate action based on the results of STEP I through IV.
If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC XXXX.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed to the Basic Inspection, EC-1049. Then perform inspections according to
the Symptom Matrix Chart. Refer to EC-1055.
STEP VIIdentify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes.
Inspect the system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) ªHarness Layoutsº.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT-II set in ªDATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)º mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CON-
SULT-II. Refer to EC-1068 or EC-1065.
The ªDiagnostic Procedureº in EC section contains a description based on open circuit inspection. A short circuit
inspection is also required for the circuit check in the Diagnostic Procedure. For details, refer to GI section (ªCir-
cuit Inspectionº, ªHOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENTº).
Repair or replace the malfunction parts.
If the malfunctioning part cannot be detected, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT
INCIDENTº, EC-1076.
STEP VIIOnce you have repaired the circuit or replaced a component, you need to run the engine in the same conditions
and circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº and confirm the normal code (DTC No. 0505) is detected. If the inci-
dent is still detected in the final check, perform STEP VI by using a different method from the previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (already fixed) DTC in ECM.
(Refer to EC-1032.)
