General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform the
checks and inspections themselves or they can have their NISSAN dealers do them for a nominal charge.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
Item Reference page
TiresCheck the pressure with a gauge periodically when at a service station,
including the spare, and adjust to the specified pressure if necessary. Check
carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear.Ð
Windshield wiper
bladesCheck for cracks or wear if not functioning correctly. Ð
Doors and engine
hoodCheck that all doors, the engine hood, the trunk lid and back door operate
properly. Also ensure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Diagnostic Test Mode I Ð Bulb CheckNJEC0032S03In this mode, the MI on the instrument panel should stay ON. If it remains OFF, check the MI bulb. Refer to
EL-107, ªWARNING LAMPSº or see EC-488.
Diagnostic Test Mode I Ð Malfunction WarningNJEC0032S04
MI Condition
ON When the malfunction is detected or the ECM's CPU is malfunctioning.
OFF No malfunction.
+These DTC numbers are clarified in Diagnostic Test Mode II (SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS).
Diagnostic Test Mode II Ð Self-diagnostic Results (If so equipped)NJEC0032S05In this mode, the DTC and 1st trip DTC are indicated by the number of blinks of the MI as shown below.
The DTC and 1st trip DTC are displayed at the same time. If the MI does not illuminate in diagnostic test mode
I (Malfunction warning), all displayed items are 1st trip DTCs. If only one code is displayed when the MI illu-
minates in diagnostic test mode II (SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS), it is a DTC; if two or more codes are
displayed, they may be either DTCs or 1st trip DTCs. DTC No. is same as that of 1st trip DTC. These uni-
dentified codes can be identified by using the CONSULT-II or GST. A DTC will be used as an example for how
to read a code.

A particular trouble code can be identified by the number of four-digit numeral flashes. The ªzeroº is indicated
by the number of ten flashes. The length of time the 1000th-digit numeral flashes on and off is 1.2 seconds
consisting of an ON (0.6-second)-OFF (0.6-second) cycle.
The 100th-digit numeral and lower digit numerals consist of a 0.3-second ON and 0.3-second OFF cycle.
A change from one digit numeral to another occurs at an interval of 1.0 second OFF. In other words, the lat-
ter numeral appears on the display 1.3 seconds after the former numeral has disappeared.
A change from one trouble code to another occurs at an interval of 1.8 second off.
In this way, all the detected malfunctions are classified by their DTC numbers. The DTC ª0000º refers to no
malfunction. (See TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Ð INDEX, EC-10.)
How to Erase Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results)
NJEC0032S0501The DTC can be erased from the backup memory in the ECM when the diagnostic test mode is changed from
Diagnostic Test Mode II to Diagnostic Test Mode I. (Refer to ªHow To Switch Diagnostic Test Modesº, EC-74.)
+If the battery is disconnected, the DTC will be lost from the backup memory after approx. 24 hours.
+Be careful not to erase the stored memory before starting trouble diagnoses.
Diagnostic Test Mode II Ð Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 Monitor (Front) (If so equipped)NJEC0032S06In this mode, the MI displays the condition of the fuel mixture (lean or rich) which is monitored by the heated
oxygen sensor 1 (front).

Diagnostic Test Mode I Ð Bulb CheckNJEC0628S03In this mode, the MI on the instrument panel should stay ON. If it remains OFF, check the bulb. Refer to EL-107,
ªWARNING LAMPSº or see EC-701.

MI Condition
ON When the malfunction is detected or the ECM's CPU is malfunctioning.
OFF No malfunction.
Diagnostic Test Mode II Ð Self-diagnostic ResultsNJEC0628S05In this mode, DTC is indicated by the number of blinks of the MI as shown below.

SEF162PB
Long (0.6 second) blinking indicates the two LH digits of number and short (0.3 second) blinking indicates the
two RH digits of number. For example, the MI blinks 10 times for 6 seconds (0.6 sec x 10 times) and then it
blinks three times for about 1 second (0.3 sec x 3 times). This indicates the DTC ª1003º.
In this way, all the detected malfunctions are classified by their DTC numbers. The DTC ª0505º refers to no
malfunction. (See TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Ð INDEX, EC-492.)
How to Erase Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results)NJEC0628S06The DTC can be erased from the backup memory in the ECM when the diagnostic test mode is changed from
Diagnostic Test Mode II to Diagnostic Test Mode I. (Refer to ªHow to Switch Diagnostic Test Modesº, EC-524.)
+If the battery terminal is disconnected, the DTC will be lost from the backup memory within 24
hours.
+Be careful not to erase the stored memory before starting trouble diagnoses.
