4. Clean spray hole of nozzle body by using Tool.
To prevent spray hole from canting, always clean it by start-
ing with inner side and working towards outside.
5. Decarbonate nozzle needle tip by using Tool.
6. Check needle sinking.
(1) Pull needle about halfway out from body and then release it.
(2) Needle should sink into body very smoothly from just its own
weight.
(3) Repeat this test and rotate needle slightly each time.
If needle fails to sink smoothly from any position, replace both
needle and body as a unit.
Assembly (No.2-4nozzles)
Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly, observing the fol-
lowing.
If nozzle body is not installed properly, Tool cannot be
removed and nozzle body may be damaged.

DTC and MIL Detection Logic
When a malfunction is detected for the ®rst time, the malfunction (DTC) is stored in the ECM memory.
The MIL will light up each time the ECM detects malfunction. However, if the same malfunction is experienced
in two consecutive driving patterns and the engine is still running, the MIL will stay lit up. For diagnostic items
causing the MIL to light up, refer to ``DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE INDEX'', EC-1.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
HOW TO READ DTC
The diagnostic trouble code can be read by the following methods.
1. The number of blinks of the malfunction indicator lamp in the Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-Diagnostic
Results) Examples: 11, 13, 14, etc.
These DTCs are controlled by NISSAN.
2. CONSULT Examples: ``CAM POS SEN (PUMP)'', etc.
+Output of the trouble code means that the indicated circuit has a malfunction. However, in the Mode
II it does not indicate whether the malfunction is still occurring or occurred in the past and returned
to normal.
CONSULT can identify them. Therefore, using CONSULT (if available) is recommended.
HOW TO ERASE DTC
The diagnostic trouble code can be erased by the following methods.
Selecting ``ERASE'' in the ``SELF-DIAG RESULTS'' mode with CONSULT.
Changing the diagnostic test mode from Diagnostic Test Mode II to Mode I. (Refer to EC-32.)
+If the battery terminal is disconnected, the diagnostic trouble code will be lost within 24 hours.
+When you erase the DTC, using CONSULT is easier and quicker than switching the diagnostic test
modes.
HOW TO ERASE DTC (With CONSULT)
1. If the ignition switch stays ``ON'' after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ``OFF'' once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ``ON'' (Engine stopped) again.
2. Turn CONSULT ``ON'' and touch ``ENGINE''.
3. Touch ``SELF-DIAG RESULTS''.
4. Touch ``ERASE''. (The DTC in the ECM will be erased.)
HOW TO ERASE DTC (No Tools)
1. If the ignition switch stays ``ON'' after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ``OFF'' once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ``ON'' again.
2. Change the diagnostic test mode from Mode II to Mode I. (Refer to EC-32.)

ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
EC-30

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
1. The malfunction indicator lamp will light up when the ignition
switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb
check.
+If the malfunction indicator lamp does not light up, refer to EL
section (``WARNING LAMPS AND CHIME'') or see EC-188.
2. When the engine is started, the malfunction indicator lamp
should go off.
If the lamp remains on, the on board diagnostic system has
detected an engine system malfunction.
If MIL illuminates or blinks irregularly after starting engine,
water may have accumulated in fuel ®lter. Drain water from
fuel ®lter.
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM FUNCTION
The on board diagnostic system has the following three functions.
1. BULB CHECK : This function checks the MIL bulb for damage (blown, open circuit,
etc.).
2. MALFUNCTION
WARNING: This is a usual driving condition. When a malfunction is detected, the
MIL will light up to inform the driver that a malfunction has been
detected.
3. SELF-DIAGNOSTIC
RESULTS: This function allows diagnostic trouble codes to be read.
Refer to ``HOW TO SWITCH DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODES'' on next page.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MIL, DTC, CONSULT AND DRIVING PATTERNS
*1: When a malfunction is detected, MIL will light up.
*2: When the same malfunction is detected in two consecutive
driving patterns, MIL will stay lit up.
*3: MIL will go off after vehicle is driven three times without
any malfunctions.
*4: When a malfunction is detected for the ®rst time, the DTC
will be stored in ECM.*5: The DTC will not be displayed any longer after vehicle is
driven 40 times without the same malfunction.
(The DTC still remain in ECM.)
*6: Other screens except SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS &
DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) cannot display the mal-
function. DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) can display the
malfunction at the moment it is detected.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Ð General Description
EC-51

Accelerator Switch (F/C)
The accelerator switch is installed to the accelerator pedal assem-
bly. The switch senses accelerator position and sends an ON-OFF
signal to the ECM. The ECM uses the signal to control the fuel cut
operation at deceleration for better fuel efficiency.

Accelerator Position Switch
The accelerator position switch detects OFF-accelerator switch sig-
nal and Full-accelerator switch signal and send these signals to the
ECM. The ECM will then determine engine idle conditions. These
signals are also used for diagnosing the accelerator position sen-
sor.
