Incident Simulation Tests
INTRODUCTION
Sometimes the symptom is not present when the vehicle is brought in for service. If possible, re-create the
conditions present at the time of the incident. Doing so may help avoid a No Trouble Found Diagnosis. The
following section illustrates ways to simulate the conditions/environment under which the owner experiences
an electrical incident.
The section is broken into the six following topics:
+Vehicle vibration
+Heat sensitive
+Freezing
+Water intrusion
+Electrical load
+Cold or hot start up
Get a thorough description of the incident from the customer. It is important for simulating the conditions of
the problem.
VEHICLE VIBRATION
The problem may occur or become worse while driving on a rough road or when engine is vibrating (idle with
A/C on). In such a case, you will want to check for a vibration related condition. Refer to the illustration below.
Connectors & harness
Determine which connectors and wiring harness would affect the electrical system you are inspecting.Gen-
tlyshake each connector and harness while monitoring the system for the incident you are trying to dupli-
cate. This test may indicate a loose or poor electrical connection.
Hint
Connectors can be exposed to moisture. It is possible to get a thin ®lm of corrosion on the connector termi-
nals. A visual inspection may not reveal this without disconnecting the connector. If the problem occurs
intermittently, perhaps the problem is caused by corrosion. It is a good idea to disconnect, inspect and clean
the terminals on related connectors in the system.
Sensors & relays
Gentlyapply a slight vibration to sensors and relays in the system you are inspecting.
This test may indicate a loose or poorly mounted sensor or relay.

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ``AIR
BAG'' and ``SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER''
The Supplemental Restraint System such as ``AIR BAG'' and ``SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER'' used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger in a frontal collision.
The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL Y61 is as follows (The composition var-
ies according to the destination.):
Driver air bag module (located in the center of the steering wheel), front passenger air bag module (located
on the instrument panel on passenger side), seat belt pre-tensioner, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp,
wiring harness and spiral cable.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
WARNING:
+To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag in¯ation, all maintenance must be performed
by an authorized NISSAN dealer.
+Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the RS section.
+Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation either just before
the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
Precautions for Working with HFC-134a
(R-134a)
WARNING:
+CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible. These refriger-
ants must never be mixed, even in the smallest amounts. If the refrigerants are mixed, compres-
sor failure is likely to occur.
+Use only speci®ed lubricant for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) com-
ponents. If lubricant other than that speci®ed is used, compressor failure is likely to occur.
+The speci®ed HFC-134a (R-134a) lubricant rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The
following handling precautions must be observed:
a: When removing refrigerant components from a vehicle, immediately cap (seal) the component
to minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere.
b: When installing refrigerant components to a vehicle, do not remove the caps (unseal) until
just before connecting the components. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly
as possible to minimize the entry of moisture into system.
c: Only use the speci®ed lubricant from a sealed container. Immediately reseal containers of
lubricant. Without proper sealing, lubricant will become moisture saturated and should not
be used.
d: Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose
and throat. Use only approved recovery/recycling equipment to discharge HFC-134a (R-134a)
refrigerant. If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming ser-
vice. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and lubricant
manufacturers.
e: Do not allow lubricant (Nissan A/C System Oil Type S) to come in contact with styrofoam
parts. Damage may result.

Introduction
AIR CONDITIONER LAN SYSTEM OVERVIEW CONTROL SYSTEM
The LAN system consists of auto amp., air mix door motor and mode door motor.
A con®guration of these components is shown in the diagram below.
Features
SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION (LAN)
A small network is constructed between the auto ampli®er, air mix door motor and mode door motor. The auto
ampli®er and motors are connected by data transmission lines and motor power supply lines. The LAN net-
work is built through the ground circuits of the two motors.
Addresses, motor opening angle signals, motor stop signals and error checking messages are all transmitted
through the data transmission lines connecting the auto ampli®er and two motors.
The following functions are contained in LCUs built into the air mix door motor and the mode door motor.
+Address
+Motor opening angle signals
+Data transmission
+Motor stop and drive decision
+Opening angle sensor (PBR function)
+Comparison
+Decision (Auto ampli®er indicated value and motor opening angle comparison)
RHA439G
RHA440GA
DESCRIPTIONAUTO
HA-49

Operation
The auto ampli®er receives data from each of the sensors. The ampli®er sends air mix door and mode door
opening angle data to the air mix door motor LCU and mode door motor LCU.
The air mix door motor and mode door motor read their respective signals according to the address signal.
Opening angle indication signals received from the auto ampli®er and each of the motor position sensors are
compared by the LCUs in each motor with the existing decision and opening angles. Subsequently, HOT/
COLD or DEFROST/VENT operation is selected. The new selection data is returned to the auto ampli®er.
Transmission data and transmission order
Ampli®er data is transmitted consecutively to each of the door motors following the form shown in ®gure below.
Start: Initial compulsory signal sent to each of the door motors.
Address: Data sent from the auto ampli®er is selected according to data-based decisions made by the air mix
door motor and mode door motor.
If the addresses are identical, the opening angle data and error check signals are received by the door motor
LCUs. The LCUs then make the appropriate error decision. If the opening angle data is normal, door control
begins.
If an error exists, the received data is rejected and corrected data received. Finally, door control is based upon
the corrected opening angle data.
Opening angle: Data that shows the indicated door opening angle of each door motor.
Error check: Procedure by which sent and received data is checked for errors. Error data is then compiled.
The error check prevents corrupted data from being used by the air mix door motor and mode door motor.
Error data can be related to the following problems.
+Abnormal electrical frequency
+Poor electrical connections
+Signal leakage from transmission lines
+Signal level ¯uctuation
Stop signal: At the end of each transmission, a stop operation, in-operation, or internal problem message is
delivered to the auto ampli®er. This completes one data transmission and control cycle.

Air mix door control (Automatic temperature control)
The air mix door is automatically controlled so that in-vehicle temperature is maintained at a predetermined
value by: The temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle temperature and amount of sunload.
Fan speed control
Blower speed is automatically controlled based on temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle
temperature, intake temperature, amount of sunload and air mix door position.
With FAN switch set to ``AUTO'', the blower motor starts to gradually increase air ¯ow volume.
When engine coolant temperature is low, the blower motor operation is delayed to prevent cool air from ¯ow-
ing.
Intake door control
The intake doors are automatically controlled by: The temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle
temperature, intake temperature, amount of sunload and ON-OFF operation of the compressor.
Outlet door control
The outlet door is automatically controlled by: The temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle
temperature, intake temperature and amount of sunload.
Magnet clutch control
The ECM (ECCS control module) controls compressor operation using input signals from the throttle position
sensor and auto ampli®er.
Self-diagnostic system
The self-diagnostic system is built into the auto ampli®er (LCU) to quickly locate the cause of problems.
