2000 NISSAN PATROL Electronic Repair Manual

Description
The vehicle speed sensor is installed in the transaxle. It contains
a pulse generator which provides a vehicle speed signal to the
speedometer. The speedometer then sends a signal to the ECM.
ECM Terminals and Reference Value
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may damage the
ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

DTC 0104 VEHICLE SPEED SENZD30DDTi
EC-1096

Overall Function Check
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the vehicle
speed sensor circuit. During this check, a DTC might not be
confirmed.
WITH CONSULT-II
1) Lift up the vehicle.
2) Start engine.
3) Read vehicle speed sensor signal in ªDATA MONITORº
mode with CONSULT-II.
The vehicle speed on CONSULT-II should be able to
exceed 10 km/h (6 MPH) when rotating wheels with suit-
able gear position.
4) If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-1099.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1) Lift up the vehicle.
2) Start engine.
3) Rotate drive wheel by hand.
4) Check voltage between ECM terminal 26 and ground with
tester.
Voltage should vary between 0 - 4.8V.
5) If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-1099.

Diagnostic Procedure
1 CHECK VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
1. Turn ignition switch ªOFFº.
2. Disconnect ECM harness connector and combination meter harness connector.
3. Check harness continuity between ECM terminal 26 and combination meter terminal 26. Refer to Wiring Diagram.
Continuity should exist.
4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG
OKcGO TO 3.
NGcGO TO 2.
2 DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
+Harness connectors M52, F7
+Joint connector-1
+Harness for open or short between ECM and combination meter
cRepair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
3 CHECK SPEEDOMETER FUNCTION
Make sure that speedometer functions properly.
OK or NG
OKcGO TO 5.
NGcGO TO 4.
4 CHECK SPEEDOMETER CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
Check the following.
+Harness connectors E70, E201
+Harness connectors M86, E104 or M21, E127
+Harness for open or short between combination meter and vehicle speed sensor
OK or NG
OKcCheck vehicle speed sensor and combination meter. Refer to EL section.
NGcRepair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
5 CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-1076.

DTC 0104 VEHICLE SPEED SENZD30DDTi
EC-1099

Description
The accelerator switch is installed to the accelerator pedal
assembly. 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.
CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor
Mode
Specification data are reference values.
MONITOR ITEM CONDITION SPECIFICATION
ACCEL SW (FC)+Ignition switch: ON
(Engine stopped)Accelerator pedal: fully released CLOSE
Accelerator pedal: slightly open OPEN
DECELER F/CUT+Engine: After warming up Idle OFF
ECM Terminals and Reference Value
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may damage the
ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

DTC Confirmation Procedure
WITH CONSULT-II
1) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
2) Select ªDATA MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
3) Fully depress and fully release accelerator pedal, and wait 15
seconds.
4) Repeat step 3 at least 29 times.
5) If DTC is detected, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-1103.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
2) Fully depress and fully release accelerator pedal, and then
wait 15 seconds.
3) Repeat step 2 at least 29 times.
4) Turn ignition switch ªOFFº, wait at least 5 seconds and then
