CONSULT-II CHECKING SYSTEM

Checking Equipment EAS000GB
When ordering the following equipment, contact your NISSAN/INFINITI distributor.
CAUTION:

Previous CONSULT-II “I” and “Y” DLC-I and DLC-II cables should NOT be used anymore because
their DDL connector pins can be damaged during cable swapping.

If CONSULT-ll is used with no connection of CONSULT-ll CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.

If CONSULT-II CONVERTER is not connected with CONSULT-ll, vehicle occur the "FAIL SAFE
MODE" which is "LIGHT UP the HEAD LIGHT" and/or "COOLING FAN ROTATING" when CONSULT-
ll is started.
NOTE:

The CONSULT-II must be used in conjunction with a program card.
CONSULT-II does not require loading (Initialization) procedure.

Be sure the CONSULT-II is turned off before installing or removing a program card.
CONSULT-II Start ProcedureEAS0017Y
NOTE:
Turning ignition switch off when performing CAN diagnosis could cause CAN memory to be erased.
1. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to the
data link connector.
2. If necessary, turn on the ignition switch.
3. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)” or “System Shortcut
key” (eg : ENGINE) on the screen.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.

Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in the guide may
generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop after
hydraulic pressure rises.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.

Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.

INSTALLATION
1. Install cylinder head gasket.
2. Tighten cylinder head bolts in numerical order as shown in figure
with the following procedure, and install cylinder head.
CAUTION:
If cylinder head bolts are re-used, check their outer diame-
ters before installation. Refer to EM-72, "
Cylinder Head
Bolts Outer Diameter" .
a. Apply new engine oil to threads and seating surface of mounting
bolts.
b. Tighten all bolts.
c. Turn all bolts 60 degrees clockwise (angle tightening).
d. Completely loosen.
CAUTION:
In this step, loosen bolts in reverse order of that indicated in the figure.
e. Tighten all bolts.
f. Turn all bolts 75 degrees clockwise (angle tightening).
g. Turn all bolts 75 degrees clockwise again (angle tightening).
CAUTION:
Check and confirm the tightening angle by using an angle
wrench (special service tool) or protractor. Avoid judgment
by visual inspection without the tool.
3. Install in the reverse order of removal after this step.
