Engine Fuel & Emission Control System
NEF390 ECM (ECCS-D control module)
lDo not disassemble ECM.lIf a battery terminal is disconnected, the memory
will return to the ECM value.
The ECM will now start to self-control at its initial
value. Engine operation can vary slightly when
the terminal is disconnected. However, this is not
an indication of a problem. Do not replace parts
because of a slight variation.
lWhen ECM is removed for inspection, make sure
to ground the ECM mainframe.WIRELESS EQUIPMENT
lWhen installing C.B. ham radio or a mobile
phone, be sure to observe the following as it
may adversely affect electronic control sys-
tems depending on its installation location.
1) Keep the antenna as far as possible away
from the ECM.
2) Keep the antenna feeder line more than
20 cm (7.9 in) away from the harness of elec-
tronic controls.
Do not let them run parallel for a long dis-
tance.
3) Adjust the antenna and feeder line so that the
standing-wave ratio can be kept small.
4) Be sure to ground the radio to vehicle body.
ECM HARNESS HANDLING
lConnect ECM harness connectors securely.
A poor connection can cause an extremely
high (surge) voltage to develop in coil and
condenser, thus resulting in damage to ICs.
lKeep ECM harness at least 10 cm (3.9 in)
away from adjacent harnesses, to prevent an
ECM system malfunction due to receiving
external noise, degraded operation of ICs,
etc.
lKeep ECM parts and harnesses dry.lBefore removing parts, turn off ignition
switch and then disconnect battery ground
cable. WHEN STARTING
lDo not depress accelerator pedal when
starting.
lImmediately after starting, do not rev up
engine unnecessarily.
lDo not rev up engine just prior to shut-
down. ECM PARTS HANDLING
lHandle mass air flow sensor carefully to avoid
damage.
lDo not disassemble mass air flow sensor.lDo not clean mass air flow sensor with any type
of detergent.
lDo not disassemble No. 1 injection nozzle (built-
in needle lift sensor).
lEven a slight leak in the air intake system can
cause serious problems.
lDo not shock or jar the camshaft position sensor
(TDC). ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTOR PUMP
lDo not disconnect pump harness connectors
with engine running.
lDo not disassemble or adjust electronic fuel
injection pump, except for the following
parts.
Camshaft position sensor (pump)
Injection timing control valve
Fuel cut solenoid valve BATTERY
lAlways use a 12 volt battery as power
source.
lDo not attempt to disconnect battery cables
while engine is running.

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ªAIR
BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº
NCEC0002
The Supplemental Restraint System ªAIR BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº, used along with a seat
belt, help to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger in a frontal collision. The
Supplemental Restraint System consists of air bag modules (located in the center of the steering wheel and
on the instrument panel on the passenger side), seat belt pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning
lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
In addition to the supplemental air bag modules for a frontal collision, the supplemental side air bag used
along with the seat belt helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger in a
side collision. The supplemental side air bag consists of air bag modules (located in the outer side of front
seats), satellite sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of supplemental air bags for a frontal
collision), wiring harness, warning lamp (one of components of supplemental air bags for a frontal collision).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
WARNING:
lTo 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 inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN dealer.
lImproper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system.
lDo not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses (except ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº connector) can be
identified with yellow harness connector (and with yellow harness protector or yellow insulation
tape before the harness connectors).
Precautions for On Board Diagnostic (OBD)
System of Engine
NCEC0003
The ECM has an on board diagnostic system. It will light up the malfunction indicator (MI) to warn the driver
of a malfunction causing emission deterioration.
CAUTION:
lBe sure to turn the ignition switch ªOFFº and disconnect the negative battery terminal before any
repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid valves,
etc. will cause the MI to light up.
lBe sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector
will cause the MI to light up due to the open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water,
grease, dirt, bent terminals, etc.)
lCertain systems and components, especially those related to OBD, may use a new style slide-
locking type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer to EL section, ªDescriptionº, ªHARNESS CONNEC-
TORº.
lBe sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. The interference of the harness
with a bracket, etc. may cause the MI to light up due to the short circuit.
lBe sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber
tube may cause the MI to light up due to the malfunction of the EGR system or fuel injection
system, etc.
lBe sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the ECM
before returning the vehicle to the customer.

Engine coolant temperature sensorEEngine coolant temperatureEGlow lamp
When coolant temperature is lower than 75ÉC (167ÉF):
lIgnition switch ON
After the ignition switch has been turned to ON, the glow
relay turns ON for a period of time depending on the engine
coolant temperature, allowing current to flow through the
glow plugs.
lStarting
After starting the engine, current will flow through the glow
plugs for 300 seconds, or until the coolant temperature
exceeds 50ÉC (122ÉF).
Fuel Injection System
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Three types of fuel injection control are provided to accommodate the engine operating conditions; normal
control, idle control and start control. The ECM determines the appropriate fuel injection control. Under each
control, the amount of fuel injected is compensated to improve engine performance. The ECM performs duty
cycle control on the electric governor (built into the fuel injection pump) according to sensor signals to com-
pensate the amount of fuel injected to the preset value.

When starting, the ECM adapts the fuel injection system for the
start control. The amount of fuel injected at engine starting is a
preset program value in the ECM. The program is determined by
the engine speed and engine coolant temperature.
For better startability under cool engine conditions, the lower the
coolant temperature becomes, the greater the amount of fuel
injected. The ECM ends the start control when the engine speed
reaches a coolant temperature dependent value.

Ignition switch Start signal
The ECM activates the fuel pump for several seconds after the ignition switch is turned on to improve engine
startability. If the ECM receives a 180É signal from the camshaft position sensor, it knows that the engine is
rotating, and causes the pump to perform. If the 180É signal is not received when the ignition switch is on, the
engine stalls. The ECM stops pump operation and prevents battery discharging, thereby improving safety. The
ECM does not directly drive the fuel pump. It controls the ON/OFF fuel pump relay, which in turn controls the
fuel pump.
