When you read wiring diagrams:
lRead GI section, ``HOW TO READ WIRING DIAGRAMS''.
lSee EL section, ``POWER SUPPLY ROUTING'' for power distribution circuit.
When you perform trouble diagnoses, read GI section, ``HOW TO FOLLOW FLOW
CHART IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSES'' and ``HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS
FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT''.

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ``AIR
BAG'' (4WD models)
The Supplemental Restraint System ``AIR BAG'', used along with a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or
severity of injury to the driver in a frontal collision. The Supplemental Restraint System consists of air bag
module (located in the center of the steering wheel), a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness
and spiral cable. 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 are covered with yellow insulation either just before the
harness connectors or for the complete harness, for easy identification.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ``AIR
BAG'' (2WD models)
The Supplemental Restraint System ``AIR BAG'', used along with a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or
severity of injury to the driver in a frontal collision. The Supplemental Restraint System consists of an air
bag module (located in the center of the steering wheel), a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp and spiral
cable. 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.
Precautions for Brake System
lUse brake fluid DOT 3 or DOT 4*1.
lNever reuse drained brake fluid.
lBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
lTo clean master cylinder parts, disc brake caliper parts
or wheel cylinder parts, use clean brake fluid.
lNever use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene.
They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.
lUse flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tubes.
lAlways torque brake lines when installing.
WARNING:
lClean brakes with a vacuum dust collector to minimize
the hazard of airborne materials.
*1: Refer to MA section (``Fluids and Lubricants'', ``RECOM-
MENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS'').

PRECAUTIONS AND PREPARATION
BR-1

Checking Brake Fluid Level
lCheck fluid level in reservoir tank. It should be between Max
and Min lines on reservoir tank.
lIf fluid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.
lIf the brake warning lamp comes on, check brake fluid level
switch and parking brake switch.
Checking Brake Line
CAUTION:
If leakage occurs around joints, retighten or, if necessary,
replace damaged parts.
1. Check brake lines (tubes and hoses) for cracks, deterioration
or other damage. Replace any damaged parts.
2. Check for oil leakage by fully depressing brake pedal while
engine is running.
Changing Brake Fluid
CAUTION:
lRefill with new brake fluid DOT 3 or DOT 4*1.
lAlways keep fluid level higher than minimum line on
reservoir tank.
lNever reuse drained brake fluid.
lBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
1. Clean inside of reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
2. Connect a vinyl tube to each air bleeder valve.
3. Drain brake fluid from each air bleeder valve by depressing
brake pedal.
4. Refill until brake fluid comes out of each air bleeder valve.
Use same procedure as in bleeding hydraulic system to refill
brake fluid. Refer to ``Bleeding Brake System'', BR-4.
*1: Refer to MA section (``Fluids and Lubricants'', ``RECOM-
MENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS'').

Pad Replacement
WARNING:
Clean brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize
the hazard of airborne materials.
CAUTION:
lWhen cylinder body is open, do not depress brake pedal
or caliper piston will pop out.
lBe careful not to damage piston boot or get oil on rotor.
Always replace shims when replacing pads.
lIf shims are rusted or show peeling of the rubber coat,
replace them with new shims.
lIt is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for
disassembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this
case, suspend cylinder body with wire so as not to
stretch brake hose.
1. Remove master cylinder reservoir cap.
2. Remove lower pin bolt.
3. Open cylinder body upward. Then remove pad retainers,
return spring and inner and outer shims.
Standard pad thickness:
CL28VD model
10 mm (0.39 in)
Pad wear limit:
2.0 mm (0.079 in)
lCarefully monitor brake fluid level because brake fluid
will return to reservoir when pushing back piston.

Removal
WARNING:
Clean brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize
the hazard of airborne materials.
CAUTION:
Suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.
Remove torque member fixing bolts and connecting bolt.
lIt is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for
disassembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this
case, suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to
stretch brake hose.

Disassembly
WARNING:
Do not place your fingers in front of piston.
CAUTION:
lDo not scratch or score cylinder wall.
lCL28VD type front disc brake uses plastic pistons,
handle them carefully.
1. Push out piston and dust cover with compressed air.
For CL28VD (2-piston type), use a wooden block so that both
pistons come out evenly.
2. Remove piston seal with a suitable tool.
Inspection Ð Caliper
CYLINDER BODY
lCheck inside surface of cylinder for score, rust, wear, dam-
age or presence of foreign objects. If any of the above con-
ditions are observed, replace cylinder body.
lMinor damage from rust or foreign objects may be eliminated
by polishing the surface with a fine emery sandpaper.
Replace cylinder body if necessary.
CAUTION:
Use brake fluid to clean. Never use mineral oil.
PISTON
Ð for plastic piston (CL28VD) Ð
Check pistons for uneven surface, chips or cracks. Replace if
any of these conditions are observed.
SLIDE PIN, PIN BOLT AND PIN BOOT
Check for wear, cracks or other damage. Replace if any of these
conditions are observed.
Inspection Ð Rotor
RUNOUT
1. Check runout using a dial indicator.
lMake sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the
specifications before measuring. Refer to FA section
(``Front Wheel Bearing'', ``ON-VEHICLE SERVICE'').
Maximum runout:
0.07 mm (0.0028 in)
2. If the runout is out of specification, machine rotor with on-car
brake lathe (``MAD, DL-8700'', ``AMMCO 700 and 705'' or
equivalent).

Removal
WARNING:
Clean brake lining with a vacuum dust collector to minimize
the hazard of airborne materials.
CAUTION:
Make sure parking brake lever is completely released.
1. Release parking brake lever fully, then remove drum.
lIf drum is hard to remove, the following procedures
should be carried out.
a. Remove plug. Then shorten adjuster to make clearance
between brake shoe and drum.
b. Install two bolts as shown. Tighten the two bolts gradu-
ally.
2. After removing retainer, remove spring by rotating shoes.
lBe careful not to damage wheel cylinder piston boots.
lBe careful not to damage parking brake cable when
separating it.
3. Remove adjuster.
4. Disconnect parking brake cable from toggle lever.
5. Remove retainer clip with a suitable tool. Then separate
toggle lever and brake shoe.
