Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ªAIR
BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº
The Supplemental Restraint System such as ªAIR BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger in a frontal collision.
The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL R20 is as follows (The composition var-
ies according to the destination.):
Driver air bag module (located in the center of the steering wheel), front passenger air bag module (located
on the instrument panel on passenger side), seat belt pre-tensioner, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp,
wiring harness and spiral cable.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
WARNING:
ITo avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed
by an authorized NISSAN dealer.
IImproper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the RS section.
IDo 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 either just before
the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
Precautions
IBefore proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the outside of the transmission. It is important to
prevent the internal parts from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.
IDisassembly should be done in a clean work area.
IUse lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common shop rags can leave fibers that could inter-
fere with the operation of the transmission.
IPlace disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.
IAll parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.
IGaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the transmission is disassembled.
IIt is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.
IThe valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced.
Place removed parts in a parts rack in order to replace them in correct positions and sequences. Care will
also prevent springs and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.
IProperly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.
IBefore assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings
and seals, and to hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.
IExtreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.
IAfter overhaul, refill the transmission with new ATF.
IWhen the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque
converter and ATF cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under ªChanging A/T Fluidº in the MA section when changing A/T fluid.

HOW TO PERFORM TROUBLE DIAGNOSES FOR QUICK AND ACCURATE REPAIR
A good understanding of the malfunction conditions can make troubleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a problem. It is important to fully understand the symptoms
or conditions for a customer complaint.
Make good use of the two sheets provided, ªINFORMATION FROM CUSTOMERº and ªDIAGNOSTIC
WORKSHEETº, to perform the best troubleshooting possible.
CHECK IN
LISTEN TO CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS AND FILL OUT
ªINFORMATION FROM CUSTOMERº, AT-23.
Check for any Service Bulletins.FRefer to FAIL-SAFE Service Notice or Precautions, AT-5.
CHECK A/T FLUID LEVEL AND CONDITION. IF NG, PLACE
CHECK ON THE DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET, AT-24.FRefer to A/T Fluid Check, AT-27.
PERFORM STALL TEST AND LINE PRESSURE TEST.FRefer to Stall Test and Line Pressure Test, AT-27, AT-30.
PERFORM ROAD TEST WITH SELF-DIAGNOSIS AND
PLACE CHECKS FOR NG ITEMS ON THE DIAGNOSTIC
WORKSHEET.
NG items including
self-diagnostic item
FFollow ROAD TEST procedure, AT-32.
IFOR SELF-DIAGNOSIS NG ITEMS:
-INSPECT EACH COMPONENT.
-REPAIR/REPLACE.
IPERFORM ROAD TEST AND PLACE CHECKS FOR NG
ITEMS ON THE DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET AGAIN.FIRefer to self-diagnosis, AT-14.
IPerform ROAD TEST for all items.
IFOR ALL REMAINING MALFUNCTIONS:
-INSPECT EACH COMPONENT.
-REPAIR/REPLACE.
