2001 NISSAN ALMERA air filter

The torque converter should not be replaced if:
+The fluid has an odor, is discolored, and there is no evidence of metal or clutch facing particles.
+The threads in one or more of the converter bolt holes are damaged.
+Transaxle failure did not display evidence of damaged or worn internal parts, steel particles or clutch plate
lining material in unit and inside the fluid filter.
+Vehicle has been exposed to high mileage (only). The exception may be where the torque converter clutch
dampener plate lining has seen excess wear by vehicles operated in heavy and/or constant traffic, such
as taxi, delivery or police use.
EURO-OBD SELF-DIAGNOSIS Ð EURO-OBD ÐNJAT0247S04+A/T self-diagnosis is performed by the TCM in combination with the ECM. The results can be read through
the blinking pattern of the O/D OFF indicator or the malfunction indicator (MI). Refer to the table on AT-55
for the indicator used to display each self-diagnostic result.
+The self-diagnostic results indicated by the MI are automatically stored in both the ECM and TCM memo-
ries.
Always perform the procedure ªHOW TO ERASE DTCº on AT-52 to complete the repair and avoid
unnecessary blinking of the MI.
+The following self-diagnostic items can be detected using ECM self-diagnostic results mode* only when
the O/D OFF indicator lamp does not indicate any malfunctions.
þ PNP switch
þ A/T 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th gear function
*: For details of EURO-OBD, refer to EC-59, ªON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DESCRIPTIONº.
+Certain systems and components, especially those related to EURO-OBD, may use a new style
slide-locking type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer to EL-6, ªHARNESS CONNECTORº.
