+Erasing the emission-related diagnostic information using CONSULT-II is easier and quicker than
switching the diagnostic test mode using the data link connector.
NATS (Nissan Anti-Theft System)
+If the security indicator lights up with the ignition switch
in the ªONº position or ªNATS MALFUNCTIONº is dis-
played on ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº screen, perform self-
diagnostic results mode with CONSULT-II using NATS
program card. Refer to ªNATS (Nissan Anti-Theft Sys-
tem)º in EL section.
+Confirm no self-diagnostic results of NATS is displayed
before touching ªERASEº in ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº
mode with CONSULT-II.
+When replacing ECM, initialization of NATS system and
registration of all NATS ignition key IDs must be carried
out with CONSULT-II using NATS program card.
Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle
owner. Regarding the procedures of NATS initialization
and NATS ignition key ID registration, refer to CON-
SULT-II operation manual, NATS.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
DESCRIPTION
The MIL is located on the instrument panel.
1. The MIL will light up when the ignition switch is turned ON
without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
+If the MIL does not light up, refer to EL section (ªWARNING
LAMPS AND CHIMEº) or see EC-3647.
2. When the engine is started, the MIL should go off.
If the MIL remains on, the on board diagnostic system has
detected an engine system malfunction.
Fuel filter switch is equipped except for Europe.
If MIL illuminates or blinks irregularly after starting engine,
water may have accumulated in fuel filter. Drain water from
fuel filter. Refer to EC-3426.
On board diagnostic system function
The on board diagnostic system has the following three func-
tions.

CONSULT-II (Cont'd)
EC-3437

REAL TIME DIAGNOSIS IN DATA MONITOR MODE
CONSULT-II has two kinds of triggers and they can be selected
by touching ªSETTINGº in ªDATA MONITORº mode.
1) ªAUTO TRIGº (Automatic trigger):
+The malfunction will be identified on the CONSULT-II screen
in real time.
In other words, DTC will be displayed if the malfunction is
detected by ECM.
At the moment a malfunction is detected by ECM, ªMONI-
TORº in ªDATA MONITORº screen is changed to ªRecording
Data ... xx%º as shown at left, and the data after the mal-
function detection is recorded. Then when the percentage
reached 100%, ªREAL-TIME DIAGº screen is displayed. If
ªSTOPº is touched on the screen during ªRecording Data ...
xx%º, ªREAL-TIME DIAGº screen is also displayed.
The recording time after the malfunction detection and the
recording speed can be changed by ªTRIGGER POINTº and
ªRecording Speedº. Refer to CONSULT-II OPERATION
MANUAL.
2) ªMANU TRIGº (Manual trigger):
+DTC will not be displayed automatically on CONSULT-II
screen even though a malfunction is detected by ECM.
DATA MONITOR can be performed continuously even
though a malfunction is detected.
Use these triggers as follows:
1) ªAUTO TRIGº
+While trying to detect the DTC by performing the ªDTC Con-
firmation Procedureº, be sure to select to ªDATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)º mode. You can confirm the malfunction at the
moment it is detected.
+While narrowing down the possible causes, CONSULT-II
should be set in ªDATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG)º mode,
especially in case the incident is intermittent.
When you are inspecting the circuit by gently shaking (or
twisting) the suspicious connectors, components and har-
ness in the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº, the moment a
malfunction is found the DTC will be displayed. (Refer to GI
section, ªIncident Simulation Testsº in ªHOW TO PERFORM
EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCI-
DENTº.)
2) ªMANU TRIGº
+If the malfunction is displayed as soon as ªDATA MONITORº
is selected, reset CONSULT-II to ªMANU TRIGº. By select-
ing ªMANU TRIGº you can monitor and store the data. The
data can be utilized for further diagnosis, such as a compari-
son with the value for the normal operating condition.

DESCRIPTION FOR WORK FLOW
STEP DESCRIPTION
STEP IGet detailed information about the conditions and the environment when the incident/symptom occurred using
the ªDIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEETº, EC-3440.
STEP IIBefore confirming the concern, check and write down (print out using CONSULT-II) the DTC, then erase the
DTC. Refer to EC-3428.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-3470.
Study the relationship between the cause, specified by DTC, and the symptom described by the customer. (The
ªSymptom Matrix Chartº will be useful. Refer to EC-3451.) Also check related service bulletins for information.
STEP IIITry to confirm the symptom and under what conditions the incident occurs.
The ªDIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEETº is useful to verify the incident. Connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA
MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-3470.
If the malfunction code is detected, skip STEP IV and perform STEP V.
STEP IVTry to detect the DTC by driving in (or performing) the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº. Check and read the DTC
by using CONSULT-II.
During the DTC verification, be sure to connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG)
mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-3470.
In case the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº is not available, perform the ªOverall Function Checkº instead. The
DTC cannot be displayed by this check, however, this simplified ªcheckº is an effective alternative.
The ªNGº result of the ªOverall Function Checkº is the same as the DTC detection.
STEP VTake the appropriate action based on the results of STEP I through IV.
If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC XXXX.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed to the Basic Inspection, EC-3445. Then perform inspections according to
the Symptom Matrix Chart. Refer to EC-3451.
STEP VIIdentify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes.
Inspect the system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) ªHarness Layoutsº.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT-II set in ªDATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)º mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CON-
SULT-II. Refer to EC-3464 or EC-3461.
The ªDiagnostic Procedureº in EC section contains a description based on open circuit inspection. A short circuit
inspection is also required for the circuit check in the Diagnostic Procedure. For details, refer to GI section (ªCir-
cuit Inspectionº, ªHOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENTº).
Repair or replace the malfunction parts.
If the malfunctioning part cannot be detected, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT
INCIDENTº, EC-3470.
STEP VIIOnce you have repaired the circuit or replaced a component, you need to run the engine in the same conditions
and circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº and confirm the normal code (DTC No. 0505) is detected. If the inci-
dent is still detected in the final check, perform STEP VI by using a different method from the previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (already fixed) DTC in ECM.
(Refer to EC-3428.)
