condition in the CPU of ECM), the MI on the instrument panel lights to warn
the driver.
However it is not possible to access ECM and DTC cannot be confirmed.

operation and IACV-AAC valve operation are controlled under certain limita-

Fuel Injection Control System
DESCRIPTIONNJEC0612System DescriptionNJEC0612S01Three types of fuel injection control are provided to accommodate engine operating conditions; normal control,
idle control and start control. The ECM determines the appropriate fuel injection control. Under each control,
the amount of fuel injected is compensated to improve engine performance.
Pulse signals are exchanged between ECM and electronic control fuel injection pump (control unit is built-in).
The fuel injection pump control unit performs duty control on the spill valve (built into the fuel injection pump)
according to the input signals to compensate the amount of fuel injected to the preset value.

SEF648S
When the ECM receives a start signal from the ignition switch, the ECM adapts the fuel injection system for
the start control. The amount of fuel injected at engine starting is a preset program value in the ECM. The
program is determined by the engine speed and engine coolant temperature.
For better startability under cool engine conditions, the lower the coolant temperature becomes, the greater
the amount of fuel injected. The ECM ends the start control when the engine speed reaches the specific value,
and shifts the control to the normal or idle control.

Air conditioner switch Air conditioner signal
When the ECM determines that the engine speed is at idle, the fuel injection system is adapted for the idle
control. The ECM regulates the amount of fuel injected corresponding to changes in load applied to the engine
to keep engine speed constant. The ECM also provides the system with a fast idle control in response to the
engine coolant temperature signal.

Trouble Diagnoses Introduction=NJRS0043CAUTION:
+Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow harness connector.
+Do not attempt to repair, splice or modify the SRS wiring harness. If the harness is damaged,
replace it with a new one.
+Keep ground portion clean.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTIONNJRS0043S01The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using ªAIR BAGº warning lamp and/or CONSULT-II. The read-
ing of these results is accomplished using one of two modes Ð ªUser modeº and ªDiagnosis modeº.
The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system
malfunction through the operation of the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp.
The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.
The mode applications for the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp and CONSULT-II are as follows:
User mode Diagnosis mode Display type
ªAIR BAGº warning lamp X X ON-OFF operation
CONSULT-II Ð X Monitoring
NOTE:
Seat belt pre-tensioner malfunction is indicated by ªAIR BAGº warning lamp.
DIAGNOSIS MODE FOR CONSULT-IINJRS0043S02+ªSELF-DIAG [CURRENT]º
A current Self-diagnosis result (also indicated by the number of warning lamp flashes in the Diagnosis
mode) is displayed on the CONSULT-II screen in real time. This refers to a malfunctioning part requiring
repairs.
+ªSELF-DIAG [PAST]º
Diagnosis results previously stored in the memory are displayed on the CONSULT-II screen. The stored
results are not erased until memory erasing is executed.
+ªTROUBLE DIAG RECORDº
With TROUBLE DIAG RECORD, diagnosis results previously erased by a reset operation can be displayed
on the CONSULT-II screen.
+ªECU DISCRIMINATED NO.º
The diagnosis sensor unit for each vehicle model is assigned with its own, individual classification num-
ber. This number will be displayed on the CONSULT-II screen, as shown below. When replacing the diag-
nosis sensor unit, refer to the part number for the compatibility. After installation, replacement with a cor-
rect unit can be checked by confirming this classification number on the CONSULT-II screen.
For NISSAN MODEL N16, the diagnosis sensor unit classification numbers are as follows:
