2002 NISSAN TERRANO Service Repair Manual

Description
The engine coolant temperature sensor is used to detect the engine
coolant temperature. The sensor modifies a voltage signal from the
ECM. The modified signal returns to the ECM as the engine cool-
ant temperature input. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sen-
sitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the
thermistor decreases as temperature increases.

ture ÉC (ÉF)Voltage* (V) Resistance (kW)
þ10 (14) 4.4 7.0 - 11.4
20 (68) 3.5 2.1 - 2.9
50 (122) 2.3 0.68 - 1.00
90 (194) 1.0 0.236 - 0.260
*: These data are reference values and measured between ECM terminal 19
(Engine coolant temperature sensor) and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/
output voltage. Doing so may damage the ECM's transistor.
Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

DTC Confirmation Procedure
WITH CONSULT-II
1) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
2) Select ªDATA MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
3) Wait at least 5 seconds.
4) If DTC is detected, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-97.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1) Turn ignition switch ªONº and wait at least 5 seconds.
2) Turn ignition switch ªOFFº, wait at least 5 seconds and then turn
ªONº.
3) Perform ªDiagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results)º with
ECM.
4) If DTC is detected, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-97.

IHarness connectors F135, M842 (RHD models)
IHarness for open or short between engine control temperature sensor and ECM
ERepair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
3 CHECK ECTS GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
1. Turn ignition switch ªOFFº.
2. Check harness continuity between ECTS terminal 1 and engine ground. Refer to Wiring Diagram.
Continuity should exist.
3. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

EC-98

Description
The vehicle speed sensor is installed in the transaxle. It contains a
pulse generator which provides a vehicle speed signal to the
speedometer. The speedometer then sends a signal to the ECM.
ECM Terminals and Reference Value
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may damage the
ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

Overall Function Check
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the vehicle
speed sensor circuit. During this check, a DTC might not be con-
firmed.
WITH CONSULT-II
1) Lift up the vehicle.
2) Start engine.
3) Read vehicle speed sensor signal in ªDATA MONITORº mode
with CONSULT-II.
The vehicle speed on CONSULT-II should be able to exceed
10 km/h (6 MPH) when rotating wheels with suitable gear
position.
4) If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-103.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1) Lift up the vehicle.
2) Start engine.
3) Rotate drive wheel by hand.
4) Check voltage between ECM terminal 26 and ground with
tester.
Voltage should vary between0-BATTERY VOLTAGE.
5) If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-103.
