HARNESS INDICATIONNJGI0003S0202+Letter designations next to test meter probe indicate harness
(connector) wire color.
+Connector numbers in a single circle M33 indicate harness
connectors.

SWITCH POSITIONSNJGI0003S0204Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the
ªnormalº condition.
A vehicle is in the ªnormalº condition when:
+ignition switch is ªOFFº,
+doors, hood and trunk lid/back door are closed,
+pedals are not depressed, and
+parking brake is released.
DETECTABLE LINES AND NON-DETECTABLE LINESNJGI0003S0205In some wiring diagrams, two kinds of lines, representing wires,
with different weight are used.
+A line with regular weight (wider line) represents a ªdetectable
line for DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code)º. A ªdetectable line for
DTCº is a circuit in which ECM can detect its malfunctions with
the on board diagnostic system.
+A line with less weight (thinner line) represents a ªnon-detect-
able line for DTCº. A ªnon-detectable line for DTCº is a circuit
in which ECM cannot detect its malfunctions with the on board
diagnostic system.

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.
Make sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the
primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for
lubrication frequently.BT-7
BT-16
Tire rotationTires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). SU-7
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the
vehicle, etc.
Item Reference page
LampsMake sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps,
and other lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check
headlamp aim.Ð
Warning lamps and
chimesMake sure that all warning lamps and buzzers/chimes are operating prop-
erly.Ð
Steering wheelCheck that it has the specified play.
Check for changes in the steering conditions, such as excessive free play,
hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in)Ð
Seat beltsCheck that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters
and retractors) operate properly and smoothly, and are installed securely.
Check the belt webbing for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.RS-4
UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically e.g. each time you check the engine oil or refuel.
Item Reference page
Windshield washer
fluidCheck that there is adequate fluid in the tank. Ð
Engine coolant levelCheck the coolant level when the engine is cold. LC-18, LC-43
Engine oil levelCheck the level after parking the vehicle (on level ground) and turning off
the engine.LC-8, LC-30
Brake and clutch
fluid levelsMake sure that the brake and clutch fluid levels are between the ªMAXº and
ªMINº lines on the reservoir.BR-7
BatteryCheck the fluid level in each cell. It should be between the ªMAXº and ªMINº
lines.Ð

Checking A/T FluidNJAT02281. Warm up engine.
2. Check for fluid leakage.
3. Before driving, fluid level can be checked at fluid temperatures
of 30 to 50ÉC (86 to 122ÉF) using ªCOLDº range on dipstick.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear posi-
tion. Leave selector lever in ªPº position.
c. Check fluid level with engine idling.
d. Remove dipstick and note reading. If level is at low side of
either range, and fluid to the charging pipe.
e. Re-insert dipstick into charging pipe as far as it will go.
f. Remove dipstick and note reading. If reading is at low side of
range, add fluid to the charging pipe.
Do not overfill.
4. Drive vehicle for approximately 5 minutes in urban areas.
5. Re-check fluid level at fluid temperatures of 50 to 80ÉC (122
to 176ÉF) using ªHOTº range on dipstick.
SMA853B
6. Check fluid condition.
+If fluid is very dark or smells burned, refer to AT section for
checking operation of A/T. Flush cooling system after repair of
A/T.
+If A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.),
replace radiator and flush cooler line using cleaning solvent
and compressed air after repair of A/T. Refer to LC-16, ªRadia-
torº.
SMA027D
Changing A/T FluidNJAT02291. Warm up A/T fluid.
2. Stop engine.
3. Drain A/T fluid from drain plug and refill with new A/T fluid.
Always refill same volume with drained fluid.
Fluid grade:
Nissan Matic ªDº or Genuine Nissan Automatic
Transmission Fluid. Refer to ªRECOMMENDED FLU-
IDS AND LUBRICANTSº, MA-20.
Fluid capacity (With torque converter):
7.0!(6-1/8 Imp qt)
Drain plug:
: 29 - 39 N´m (3.0 - 4.0 kg-m, 22 - 29 ft-lb)
4. Run engine at idle speed for five minutes.
5. Check fluid level and condition. Refer to ªChecking A/T Fluidº.

brake.
7. Quickly note the engine stall revolution and immediately
release throttle.
+During test, never hold throttle wide open for more than 5
seconds.
Stall revolution:
QG13DE 2,000 - 2,300 rpm
QG15DE 2,000 - 2,300 rpm

9. Cool off ATF.
+Run engine at idle for at least one minute.
10. Repeat steps 5 through 9 with selector lever in ª2º, ª1º and ªRº
positions.
JUDGEMENT OF STALL TESTNJAT0026S02The test result and possible damaged components relating to each
result are shown in the illustrations on next page.
In order to pinpoint the possible damaged components, follow the
WORK FLOW shown in AT-71 (Except for Euro-OBD) or AT-76
(EURO-OBD).
