Fuel Pressure CheckNEEC0025+When reconnecting fuel line, always use new clamps.
+Make sure that clamp screw does not contact adjacent
parts.
+Use a torque driver to tighten clamps.
+Use Pressure Gauge to check fuel pressure.

ing. Fuel pressure gauge may indicate false readings.
1. Release fuel pressure to zero.
2. Disconnect fuel hose between fuel filter and fuel tube (engine
side).
3. Install pressure gauge between fuel filter and fuel tube.
4. Start engine and check for fuel leakage.
5. Read the indication of fuel pressure gauge.

tion due to receiving external noise, degraded operation
of ICs, etc.
+Keep engine control system parts and harnesses dry.
+Before replacing ECM, perform Terminals and Reference
Value inspection and make sure ECM functions properly.
Refer to EC-3464.
+Fuel filter switch is equipped except for Europe.
If MIL illuminates or blinks irregularly when engine is
running, water may have accumulated in fuel filter. Drain
water from fuel filter. Refer to EC-3427. If this does not
correct the problem, perform specified trouble diagnos-
tic procedures.
+After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform
ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº or ªOverall Function
Checkº.
The DTC should not be displayed in the ª DTC Confirma-
tion Procedureº if the repair is completed. The ªOverall
Function Checkº should be a good result if the repair is
completed.

PRECAUTIONSYD25DDTi
Precautions (Cont'd)
EC-3403

Air Bleeding
Pump the priming pump to bleed air.
+When air is bled completely, the pumping of the priming
pump suddenly becomes heavy. Stop operation at that
time.
+If it is difficult to bleed air by the pumping of the prim-
ing pump (the pumping of the priming pump does not
become heavy), disconnect the fuel supply hose
between the fuel filter and the injection pump. Then, per-
form the operation described above, and make sure that
fuel comes out. (Use a pan, etc. so as not to spill fuel.
Do not let fuel get on engine and other parts.) After that,
connect the hose, and then bleed air again.
+Start engine and let it idle for at least one minute after
performing air bleeding.
Water Draining
EXCEPT FOR EUROPE
+If the MIL illuminates or blinks during the engine operation,
drain the water as follows.
1. Loosen drain cock and drain water.
Loosening drain cock four to five turns causes water to
start draining.
Do not remove drain cock by loosening it excessively.
If water does not drain properly, move the priming up and
down.
Water amount when the MIL blinks:
90 - 150 m!(3.2 - 5.3 Imp fl oz)
CAUTION:
When the water is drained, the fuel is also drained. Use a
pan, etc. to avoid fuel adherence to the rubber parts such as
the engine mount insulator.
Do not over-tighten the water draining cock. This will dam-
age the cock thread, resulting in water or fuel leak.
2. Bleed air of the fuel filter. Refer to EC-3426.
3. Start the engine, then check that the MIL goes off.
FOR EUROPE
1. Loosen drain cock and drain water.
Loosening drain cock four to five turns causes water to
start draining.
Do not remove drain cock by loosening it excessively.
If water does not drain properly, move the priming handle up
and down.
CAUTION:
When the water is drained, the fuel is also drains. Use a pan,
etc. to avoid fuel adherence to rubber parts such as the
engine mount insulator.
Do not over-tighten the water drain cock. This will damage
the cock thread, resulting in water or fuel leak.

2. Bleed air of the fuel filter. Refer to EC-3426.
Accelerator Position Sensor Idle Position
Learning
DESCRIPTION
ªAccelerator Position Sensor Idle Position Learningº is an opera-
tion to clear the self-learning fully closed accelerator position.
It must be performed each time harness connector of accelera-
tor position sensor or ECM is disconnected.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
With CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch ªONº.
2. Select ªOFF ACCEL PO SIGº in ªACTIVE TESTº mode with
CONSULT-II.
3. Touch ªCLEARº.
Without CONSULT-II
1. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
2. Let engine idle for 10 minutes.
BASIC SERVICE PROCEDUREYD25DDTi
EC-3427

+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.
