PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EIS0097B
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WAR NIN G:

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 inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI 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 SRS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.

Service NoticeEIS0097C

When removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding onto the vehicle body to prevent
scratches.

Handle trim, molding instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to oil or
damage them.

Apply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts.

When applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts.

When replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, member, etc.), be sure to take rust pre-
vention measures.
Precautions EIS0097D

When removing or disassembling any part, be careful not to damage or deform it. Protect parts which may
get in the way with cloth.

When removing parts with a screwdriver or other tool, protect parts by wrapping tools with vinyl or tape.

Keep removed parts protected with cloth.

If a clip is deformed or damaged, replace it.

If an unreusable part is removed, replace it with a new one.

Tighten bolts and nuts firmly to the specified torque.

After re-assembly has been completed, make sure each part functions correctly.

Remove stains in the following way.
Water-soluble stains:
Dip a soft cloth in warm water, and then squeeze it tightly. After wiping the stain, wipe with a soft dry cloth.
Oil stain:
Dissolve a synthetic detergent in warm water (density of 2 to 3% or less), dip the cloth, then clean off the stain
with the cloth. Next, dip the cloth in fresh water and squeeze it tightly. Then clean off the detergent completely.
Then wipe the area with a soft dry cloth.

Do not use any organic solvent, such as thinner or benzine.

EPS SYSTEMPFP:28500
System DescriptionUGS000A5
EPS CONTROL UNIT

EPS control unit performs an arithmetical operation on data,
such as steering wheel turning force (sensor signal) from the
torque sensor, vehicle speed signal, etc. Then it generates an
optimum assist torque to the EPS motor according to the driving
condition.

EPS control unit decreases the output to EPS motor while
extremely using the power steering function (e.g., full steering)
for protecting EPS motor and EPS control unit (Protect overload
status). While activating protect overload status, the assist
torque gradually decreases, and the steering wheel turning force
becomes heavy. The normal assist torque reactivates by not
steering.

In case of an error in the electrical system, the fail-safe function stops output signals to the EPS motor.
Then the previous state is changed to the manual steering state.

Self-diagnosis can be done with CONSULT-II.
EPS MOTOR
EPS motor provides the assist torque by control signal from EPS control unit.
TORQUE SENSOR
Torque sensor detects the steering torque, and transmit the signal to
EPS control unit.
REDUCTION GEAR
Reduction gear increases the assist torque provided from EPS motor with worm gears, and outputs to the col-
umn shaft.
EPS WARNING LAMP
Turns ON when there is a malfunction in EPS system. It indicates that fail-safe mode is engaged and enters a
manual steering state (Control turning force steering wheel becomes heavy).
Also turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check. Turns OFF after the engine starts
if system is normal.

Revision: June 20062007 Versa
System DiagramUGS000A6
COMPONENTS FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
CAN CommunicationUGS000A7
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
For details, refer to LAN-47, "
CAN System Specification Chart" .

Component parts Function
EPS control unit
(Electric power steering control unit)

Outputs optimum assist torque signal to EPS motor.

Reduces output signals to EPS motor and protects EPS motor and EPS control unit when
using power steering continuously and excessively.

As a fail-safe function, turned off output signal to EPS motor and then enters a manual steer-
ing state, if malfunction is detected in EPS system.
EPS motor Products assist torque by control signal from EPS control unit.
Torque sensor Detects steering wheel turning force and outputs sensor signal to EPS control unit.
Reduction gear Increases motor-produced assist torque by worm gear and transmits it to column shaft.
EPS warning lamp Illuminates if malfunction is detected in electrical system of EPS system.

trol unit) (With ABS)Transmits the following signals via CAN communication to EPS control unit.
