SERVICE COUPLERSNLHA0117S06Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to
an CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers
will not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if
an improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamina-
tion may occur.

REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALENLHA0117S07Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied lubricants have been used with the scale. If the scale controls
refrigerant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2″-16
ACME.
CALIBRATING ACR4 WEIGHT SCALENLHA0117S09Calibrate the scale every three months.
To calibrate the weight scale on the ACR4:
1. PressShift/ResetandEnterat the same time.
2. Press8787.“A1”will be displayed.
3. Remove all weight from the scale.
4. Press0, then pressEnter.“0.00”will be displayed and change
to“A2”.
5. Place a known weight (dumbbell or similar weight), between
4.5 and 36.3 kg (10 and 80 lb) on the center of the weight
scale.
6. Enter the known weight using four digits. (Example 10 lb =
“10.00”, 10.5 lb =“10.50”)
7. PressEnter—the display returns to the vacuum mode.
8. PressShift/ResetandEnterat the same time.
9. Press6—the known weight on the scale is displayed.
10. Remove the known weight from the scale.“0.00”will be dis-
played.
11. PressShift/Resetto return the ACR4 to the program mode.
CHARGING CYLINDERNLHA0117S08Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be
vented into air from cylinder’s top valve when filling the cylinder
with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less
than that of an electronic scale or of quality recycle/recharge
equipment.

Trouble Diagnoses Introduction=NLRS0043CAUTION:
+Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
+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 FUNCTIONNLRS0043S01The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using“AIR BAG”warning lamp and/or CONSULT-II. The read-
ing of these results is accomplished using one of two modes—“User mode”and“Diagnosis mode”.
The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system
malfunction through the operation of the“AIR BAG”warning lamp.
The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.
The mode applications for the“AIR BAG”warning lamp and CONSULT-II are as follows:
User mode Diagnosis mode Display type
“AIR BAG”warning lamp X X ON-OFF operation
CONSULT-II—X Monitoring
NOTE:
Seat belt pre-tensioner malfunction is indicated by“AIR BAG”warning lamp.
DIAGNOSIS MODE FOR CONSULT-IINLRS0043S02+“SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]”
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.
+“SELF-DIAG [PAST]”
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.
+“TROUBLE DIAG RECORD”
With TROUBLE DIAG RECORD, diagnosis results previously erased by a reset operation can be displayed
on the CONSULT-II screen.
+“ECU DISCRIMINATED NO.”
The diagnosis sensor unit for each vehicle model is assigned with its own, individual classification num-
ber (refer to the table below). This number will be displayed on the CONSULT-II screen. When replacing
the diagnosis sensor unit, refer to the part number for the compatibility. After installation, replacement with
a correct unit can be checked by confirming this classification number on the CONSULT-II screen.
For NISSAN MODEL V10, the diagnosis sensor unit classification numbers are as follows:
MODEL ECU DISCRIMINATED NO.
Models with single air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner A910
Models with dual air bags and seat belt pre-tensioner A911
Models with dual air bags, side air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner A912

HOW TO CHANGE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE WITH CONSULT-II=NLRS0043S03From User Mode to Diagnosis ModeNLRS0043S0301After selecting“AIR BAG”on the“SELECT SYSTEM”screen, User mode automatically changes to Diagno-
sis mode.

HOW TO CHANGE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE WITHOUT CONSULT-IINLRS0043S04From User Mode to Diagnosis ModeNLRS0043S0401When a malfunction is detected, activate the Diagnosis mode by turning the ignition switch as follows:
1) Turn ignition switch“ON”.
2) After“AIR BAG”warning lamp lights for 7 seconds, turn ignition switch“OFF”within 1 second.
3) Wait more than 3 seconds.
4) Repeat steps 1 to 3 three times.
5) Turn ignition switch“ON”.
SRS will not enter Diagnosis mode if no malfunction is detected.
From Diagnosis Mode to User ModeNLRS0043S0402After a malfunction is repaired, switch the ignition“OFF”for at least one second, then back“ON”. Diagnosis
mode is returned to User mode.
When a malfunction is detected, switch from Diagnosis mode to User mode by turning the ignition switch as
follows:
1) Turn ignition switch“ON”.
2) After“AIR BAG”warning lamp lights for 7 seconds, turn ignition switch“OFF”within 1 second.
3) Wait more than 3 seconds.
4) Repeat steps 1 to 3 three times.
5) Turn ignition switch“ON”.
