2001 NISSAN ALMERA TINO oil pressure

NEL714
Aiming Adjustment=NLEL0029Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1) Keep all tires inflated to correct pressure.
2) Place vehicle on level ground.
3) See that vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant,
engine oil and fuel, and spare tire, jack, and tools). Have the
driver or equivalent weight placed in driver's seat.
Adjust aiming in the vertical direction by turning the adjusting
screw.

1. Set the distance between the screen and the center of the fog
lamp lens as shown at left.
2. Remove front fog lamp rim. For detail, refer to ªBODY ENDº in
BT section.
3. Turn front fog lamps ON.
NEL716
4. Adjust front fog lamps so that the top edge of the high inten-
sity zone is 91 to 136 mm (3.58 to 5.35 in) below the height of
the fog lamp centers as shown at left.
+When performing adjustment, if necessary, cover the head-
lamps and opposite fog lamp.

Electrical Components InspectionNLEL0051FUEL WARNING LAMP OPERATION CHECKNLEL0051S011. Turn ignition switch ªOFFº.
2. Disconnect fuel level sensor unit harness connector B38.
3. Connect a resistor (80W) between fuel level sensor unit har-
ness connector terminals 4 and 1.
4. Turn ignition switch ªONº.
The fuel warning lamp should come on.
NOTE:
For models with E-OBD system Only
ECM might store the DTC P0180 during this inspection. If the DTC
is stored in ECM memory, erase the DTC after reconnecting the
fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump harness connector. Refer to
EC-69, EC-597 ªHOW TO ERASE EMISSION-RELATED DIAG-

DIODE CHECKNLEL0051S03+Check continuity using an ohmmeter.
+Diode is functioning properly if test results are as shown in the
figure at left.
+Check diodes at the combination meter harness connector
instead of on the combination meter assembly. Refer to
EL-156, ªWARNING LAMPº wiring diagrams.
NOTE:
Specification may vary depending on the type of tester. Before
performing this inspection, be sure to refer to the instruction
manual for the tester to be used.
