2001 INFINITI QX4 transmission

Component DescriptionNBEC0361The malfunction information related to A/T (Automatic Transmission) is transferred through the line (circuit)
from TCM (Transmission control module) to ECM. Therefore, be sure to erase the malfunction information such
as DTC not only in TCM (Transmission control module) but also ECM after the A/T related repair.
On Board Diagnosis LogicNBEC0363Malfunction is detected when an incorrect signal from TCM (Trans-
mission control module) is sent to ECM.
Possible CauseNBEC0594IHarness or connectors
[The communication line circuit between ECM and TCM
(Transmission control module) is open or shorted.]
IDead (Weak) battery
ITCM (Transmission control module)
SEF058Y
DTC Confirmation ProcedureNBEC0364NOTE:
If ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº has been previously conducted,
always turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 10 seconds
before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION:
Before performing the following procedure, confirm that bat-
tery voltage is more than 10.5V at idle.
WITH CONSULT-IINBEC0364S011) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
2) Select ªDATA MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
3) Start engine and wait at least 40 seconds.
4) If 1st trip DTC is detected, go to ªDTC P0600 A/T COMMUNI-
CATION LINE Diagnostic Procedureº, EC-443.
WITH GSTNBEC0364S02Follow the procedure ªWITH CONSULT-IIº above.

Component DescriptionNBEC0367When the gear position is ªPº (A/T models only) or ªNº, park/neutral
position (PNP) switch is ªONº.
ECM detects the position because the continuity of the line (the
ªONº signal) exists.
For A/T models, the park/neutral position (PNP) switch assembly
also includes a transmission range switch to detect selector lever
position.

System DescriptionNBEL0216Refer to Owner's Manual for ASCD operating instructions.
POWER SUPPLY AND GROUNDNBEL0216S01Power is supplied at all times:
Ithrough 10A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito the stop lamp switch terminal 1, and
Ithrough 7.5A fuse (No. 52, located in fuse and fusible link box)
Ito the horn relay terminals 1 and 3.
When ignition switch is in the ON or START position, power is supplied:
Ithrough 7.5A fuse [No. 11, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito ASCD brake switch terminal 1 and
Ito ASCD control unit terminal 5,
Ithrough 10A fuse [No. 18, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito park/neutral position relay terminal 1,
Ithrough 10A fuse [No. 8, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito combination meter terminal 66, and
When park/neutral position switch is in the P or N position, ground is supplied:
Ito park/neutral position relay terminal 2
Ithrough park/neutral position switch and body grounds B55 and B75.
When ASCD main switch is depressed (ON), ground is supplied:
Ito ASCD control unit terminal 9
Ifrom ASCD steering switch terminal 4
Ito ASCD steering switch terminal 5
Ithrough body grounds M4, M66 and M147
then ASCD control unit holds CRUISE condition and illuminates CRUISE indicator.
Ground is supplied:
Ifrom ASCD control unit terminal 15
Ito combination meter terminal 46.
OPERATIONNBEL0216S02Set OperationNBEL0216S0201To activate the ASCD, all following conditions must exist.
IGround supply to ASCD control unit terminal 9 (Main switch is in ON position.)
IPower supply to ASCD control unit terminal 8 (Brake pedal is released and A/T selector lever is in other
than P and N position.)
IVehicle speed is between 40 km/h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (89 MPH). (Signal from combination meter)
When the SET/COAST switch is depressed, power is supplied:
Ifrom ASCD steering switch terminal 2
Ito ASCD control unit terminal 11.
And then ASCD pump is activated to control throttle wire and ASCD control unit supply ground
Ito combination meter terminals 51 to illuminate SET indicator.
A/T Overdrive Control during Cruise Control DrivingNBEL0216S0202When the vehicle speed is approximately 3 km/h (2 MPH) below set speed, a signal is sent
Ifrom ASCD control unit terminal 10
Ito TCM (transmission control module) terminal 24.
When this occurs, the TCM (transmission control module) cancels overdrive.
After vehicle speed is approximately 1 km/h (1 MPH) below set speed, overdrive is reactivated.
ASCD Shifting ControlNBEL0216S0203During ASCD cruise, ASCD control unit controls A/T shifting to avoid uncomfortable shifting.
This is used to control the signals below.

SYSTEM LIMITATIONSNBEL0180S03Service AreaNBEL0180S0301Depending on the cellular provider chosen, service is provided in
the 48 contiguous states. Service is not available in Alaska, Hawaii,
Canada, or Mexico. The Communicator Response Center will not
be able to locate the customer's vehicle outside of the continental
United States.
Inoperative if Cellular Phone is Inactive or InoperativeNBEL0180S0302INFINITI Communicator will be inoperative if the customer does not
have an active account with cellular provider, since INFINITI Com-
municator relies on the cellular network. When the INFINITI Com-
municator system is outside of cellular service, the ªNO SERVICEº
indicator will illuminate. If you try to activate INFINITI
Communicator, the REQUEST will be cancelled. Cellular phone
transmission may become temporarily disabled, or interrupted by
environmental factors like tunnels, bridges, or tall buildings. In such
cases, INFINITI Communicator will re-dial up to four times. After
several failed attempts, the system will quit dialing and return to
normal mode.
Inoperative if The System is in The Demonstraiton
Mode
NBEL0180S0303The INFINITI Communicator system remains in the demonstration
mode until the setup procedures are completed. If the system is
activated in this mode, the Communicator Response Center will
recognize this operation as a demonstration and will not provide
any service. The system can be changed to the demonstration
mode by using CONSULT-II to check the system operation. Do not
forget to turn off the demonstration mode after confirmation.
BatteryNBEL0180S0304Since INFINITI Communicator is powered by the vehicle's battery,
if the battery is removed, damaged or discharged, the system will
not work.
Inopertive if Cellular System is BusyNBEL0180S0305When INFINITI Communicator tries to contact the Communicator
Response Center, but the cellular network is busy, the system
attempts to re-dial for up to two hours. This time varies greatly
depending on the cellular network and cellular signal strength. The
system resets to ready when the system completes the re-dialing
attempts.
RoamingNBEL0180S0306If the customer's cellular provider does not have a roaming agree-
ment with the provider where the vehicle locates, it may not be
possible to use the lines of a different cellular provider. Therefore,
it is impossible that INFINITI Communicator will contact the Com-
municator Response Center.
Special Cellular FeaturesNBEL0180S0307Some cellular carriers offer custom phone numbers that are
assigned a Personal Identification Number (PIN). The cellular
phone user is required to enter the PIN anytime a phone call is
made. The INFINITI Communicator system is not compatible with
the PIN feature. A PIN requirement on the cellular phone will cause
the INFINITI Communicator system to be inoperative.
Other special features such as call waiting, voice mail, call
forwarding, etc. can interfere with INFINITI Communicator system
operation.
