P1778 STEP MOTOR - FUNCTION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000003806475
 The step motor changes the step by turning 4 coils ON/OFF according to the signal from TCM. As a result,
the flow of line pressure to primary pulley is changed and pulley ratio is controlled.
 This diagnosis item is detected when the electrical system is OK, but the mechanical system is NG.
 This diagnosis item is detected when the state of the changing of the speed mechanism in the unit does not
operate normally.

< PRECAUTION >[CVT: RE0F10A]
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top Cover
INFOID:0000000003901480
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precaution for On Board Diagnosis (OBD) System of CVT and EngineINFOID:0000000003806496
The ECM has an on board diagnostic system. It will light up the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) to warn the
driver of a malfunction causing emission deterioration.
CAUTION:
 Be sure to turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal
before any repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid
valves, etc. will cause the MIL to light up.
 Be sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector will
cause the MIL to light up due to an open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water, grease,
dirt, bent terminals, etc.)
 Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. Interference of the harness with a
bracket, etc. may cause the MIL to light up due to a short circuit.
 Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MIL to light up due to a malfunction of the EVAP system or fuel injection system, etc.
 Be sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the TCM and
ECM before returning the vehicle to the customer.
Precaution for TCM and CVT Assembly ReplacementINFOID:0000000003806497
CAUTION:
 Check if new data (Unit ID) are entered correctly after replacing CVT assembly and erasing data in
TCM. (Connect CONSULT-III, and then turn ignition switch OFF.)
 When replacing CVT assembly or TCM, refer to the pattern table below and erase the EEPROM in the
TCM if necessary.

CVT FLUID
ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
CVT FLUID
InspectionINFOID:0000000003806504
CHECKING CVT FLUID
The fluid level should be checked with the fluid warmed up to 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). The fluid level check
procedure is as follows:
1. Check for fluid leakage.
2. With the engine warmed up, drive the vehicle in an urban area.
When ambient temperature is 20°C (68°F), it takes about 10
minutes for the CVT fluid to warm up to 50 to 80°C (122 to
176°F).
3. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
4. Apply parking brake firmly.
5. With engine at idle, while depressing brake pedal, move shift
selector throughout the entire shift range.
6. Pull out the CVT fluid level gauge from the CVT fluid charging
pipe after pressing the tab on the CVT fluid level gauge to
release the lock.
7. Wipe fluid off the CVT fluid level gauge. Insert the CVT fluid
level gauge rotating 180° from the originally installed position,
then securely push the CVT fluid level gauge until it meets the
top end of the CVT fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the CVT fluid level gauge, always use
lint-free paper, not a cloth rag.
8. Place the selector lever in “P” or “N” and check that the fluid
level is within the specified range.
CAUTION:
When reinstalling CVT fluid level gauge, insert it into the
CVT fluid charging pipe and rotate it to the original installa-
tion position until securely locked.

ChangingINFOID:0000000003806505
CAUTION:
Replace O-ring with new ones at the final stage of the operation when installing.
1. Remove drain plug from oil pan.
2. Remove drain plug gasket from drain plug.
3. Install drain plug gasket to drain plug.
CAUTION:
Never reuse drain plug gasket.
4. Install drain plug to oil pan. Refer to TM-321, "
Exploded View".
5. Fill CVT fluid from CVT fluid charging pipe to the specified level.
CAUTION:
 Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2. Never mix with other fluid.
 Using CVT fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2 will deteriorate in driveability and
CVT durability, and may damage the CVT, which is not covered by the warranty.
 When filling CVT fluid, take care not to scatter heat generating parts such as exhaust.
 Sufficiently shake the container of CVT fluid before using.
 Delete CVT fluid deterioration date with CONSULT-III after changing CVT fluid.
6. With the engine warmed up, drive the vehicle in an urban area.
NOTE:
When ambient temperature is 20°C (68°F), it takes about 10 minutes for the CVT fluid to warm up to 50 to
80°C (122 to 176°F).
7. Check CVT fluid level and condition.
8. Repeat steps 1 to 5 if CVT fluid has been contaminated.

INSPECTION
1. Place selector lever in “P” position, and turn ignition switch ON (engine stop).
2. Check that selector lever can be shifted to other than “P” position when brake pedal is depressed. Also
check that selector lever can be shifted from “P” position only when brake pedal is depressed.
3. Move the selector lever and check for excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.
4. Check that selector lever stops at each position with the feel of engagement when it is moved through all
the positions. Check that the actual position of the selector lever matches the position shown by the shift
position indicator and the manual lever on the transaxle.
5. The method of operating the selector lever to individual posi-
tions correctly should be as shown.
6. When selector button is pressed in “P”, “R”, “N”, “D” or “L” posi-
tion without applying forward/backward force to selector lever,
check button operation for sticking.
7. Check that back-up lamps illuminate only when selector lever is
placed in the “R” position.
8. When in “R” position, check that back-up lamps illuminate even
when the selector lever is pushed toward the “P” position.
CAUTION:
Check the lighting without pressing shift button.
9. Check that the back-up lamps do not illuminate when selector lever is pushed toward the “R” position
when in the “P” or “N” position.
CAUTION:
Check the lighting without pressing shift button.
10. Check that the engine can only be started with the selector lever in the “P” and “N” positions.
11. Check that transaxle is locked completely in “P” position.
ADJUSTMENT
1. Place selector lever in “ P” position.
CAUTION:
Turn wheels more than 1/4 rotations and apply the park lock.
2. Loosen nut (A) and place manual lever (B) in “P” position.
CAUTION:
Never apply any force to the manual lever.
3. Tighten nut. Refer to TM-319, "
