Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ªAIR
BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº
The Supplemental Restraint System such as ªAIR BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº used along
with a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL Y61 is as follows (The
composition varies according to the destination and optional equipment.):
+For a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the
steering wheel), front passenger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on passenger side),
seat belt pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
+For a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of front side air bag module (located in the outer side of
front seat), satellite sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision),
wiring harness, warning lamp (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
WARNING:
+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 should be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN 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 RS section.
+Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
Precautions
+Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the outside of the transmission. It is important to
prevent the internal parts from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.
+Disassembly should be done in a clean work area.
+Use lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common shop rags can leave fibers that could inter-
fere with the operation of the transmission.
+Place disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.
+All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection
or reassembly.
+Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the transmission is disassembled.
+It is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.
+The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and ser-
viced. Place removed parts in a parts rack in order to replace them in correct positions and sequences.
Care will also prevent springs and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.
+Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.
+Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings
and seals, and to hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.

Service Notice or Precautions
FAIL-SAFE
The TCM has an electronic Fail-Safe (limp home mode). This allows the vehicle to be driven even if a major
electrical input/output device circuit is damaged.
Under Fail-Safe, the vehicle always runs in third gear even with a shift lever position of ª1º, ª2º or ªDº. Cus-
tomer may complain of ªsluggish or poor accelerationº.
When the Fail-Safe operation occurs the next time the key is turned to the ªONº position, the SPORT indi-
cator lamp will blink for about 8 seconds. (For diagnosis, refer to AT-1029.)
The blinking of the SPORT indicator lamp for about 8 seconds will appear only once and be cleared. The
customer may resume normal driving conditions by chance.
Always follow the ªWORK FLOWº (Refer to AT-1040).
The SELF-DIAGNOSIS results will be as follows:
The first SELF-DIAGNOSIS will indicate the damage of the vehicle speed sensor or the revolution
sensor.
During the next SELF-DIAGNOSIS performed after checking the sensor, no damages will be indicated.
PREPARATION AND PRECAUTIONS
AT-1006

Diagnosis by CONSULT-II
NOTICE
1.The CONSULT-II electrically displays shift timing and lock-up timing (that is, operation timing of each
solenoid).
Check for time difference between actual shift timing and the CONSULT-II display. If the difference is
noticeable, mechanical parts (except solenoids, sensors, etc.) may be malfunctioning. Check mechanical
parts using applicable diagnostic procedures.
2. Shift schedule (which implies gear position) displayed on CONSULT-II and that indicated in Service
Manual may differ slightly. This occurs because of the following reasons:
+Actual shift schedule has more or less tolerance or allowance,
+Shift schedule indicated in Service Manual refers to the point where shifts start. Gear position dis-
played on CONSULT-II indicates the point where shifts are completed.
3. Shift solenoid valve ªAº or ªBº is displayed on CONSULT-II at the start of shifting. Gear position is dis-
played upon completion of shifting (which is computed by TCM).
4. Additional CONSULT-II information can be found in the Operation Manual supplied with the CONSULT-II
unit.
