INSPECTION AFTER ACCIDENT
After a collision, inspect for damage or distortion of retractor, seat belt anchor, floor anchor, or shoulder
anchor. Nissan recommends replacement of all seat belt assemblies in the following cases because these
impairments may lead to personal injury.
After a collision
When installation point of seat belt assembly on vehicle is damaged.
When it does not operate normally.
INSPECTION FOR SEAT BELT RETRACTOR
1. Using seat belt warning lamp, make sure that it works normally.
NOTE:
When ignition is turned ON and driver seat belt is not in use, seat belt warning lamp is turned on. It is
turned off when driver seat belt is in use.
2. Check whether anchor bolts on seat belt retractor and buckle are securely tightened.
3. Check if seat belt shoulder anchor rotates freely and seat belt adjuster operates properly.
4. Retractor operation inspection
a. Pull out all webbing and check for twisting, cuts, or other damage.
b. Retract webbing. Check if the webbing is retracted smoothly and completely into the retractor. When web-
bing is not retracted smoothly due to dust or other reasons, perform the following procedure with “SEAT
BELT, TAPE SET”.
Inspection for Front Seat Belt Shoulder Anchor
1. Pull webbing out 50 cm or more.
2. Fix webbing near the belt exit with a clip.
3. Pass a thin wire into the through part of shoulder anchor and webbing. Remove the materials that are
stuck from the webbing by sliding the wire vertically along the surface of the webbing through part while
pulling both sides of wire tightly.
4. Clean the remaining dirt by cleaning the webbing through part with a clean cloth.
5. Apply tape to the shoulder anchor belt through part where webbing touches.
NOTE:
Be careful to apply tape with no wrinkling or looseness.

DISASSEMBLY
Rear Cover
1. Remove through-bolt (4).
2. Remove rear cover.
NOTE:
Rear cover may be hard to remove because a ring is used to
lock outer race of rear bearing. To facilitate removal of rear
cover, heat just bearing box section with a 200 W soldering iron
until the temperature increases by about 30 °C.
CAUTION:
Never use a heat gun, as it can damage diode assembly.

Front Cover (For LR1110-713B)
1. Set rotor to the vise.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the rotor.
Use copper plate or thick cloth for rotor in the vise.
2. Remove pulley cap, using suitable tool.
3. Remove alternator pulley, using alternator pulley adaptor [SST].
INSPECTION
Rotor Check
1. Resistance test
Not within the specified values... Replace rotor.
2. Insulator test
Continuity exists... Replace rotor.
3. Check slip ring for wear.
Not within the specified values... Replace rotor.
Brush Check
1. Check smooth movement of brush.
Not smooth... Check brush holder and clean.
2. Check brush for wear.
Replace brush if it is worn down to the limit line.

SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
FELT CLOTHTAPE
Used to insulate where movement does not occur. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
68370-4B000: 15 × 25 mm (0.59 × 0.98 in) pad/68239-13E00: 5 mm (0.20 in) wide tape roll
The following materials, not available through NISSAN Parts Department, can also be used to repair squeaks
and rattles.
UHMW(TEFLON) TAPE
Insulates where slight movement is present. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
SILICONE GREASE
Used in place of UHMW tape that will be visible or not fit.
Note: Will only last a few months.
SILICONE SPRAY
Use when grease cannot be applied.
DUCT TAPE
Use to eliminate movement.
CONFIRM THE REPAIR
Confirm that the cause of a noise is repaired by test driving the vehicle. Operate the vehicle under the same
conditions as when the noise originally occurred. Refer to the notes on the Diagnostic Worksheet.
Generic Squeak and Rattle TroubleshootingBIS001TO
Refer to Table of Contents for specific component removal and installation information.
INSTRUMENT PANEL
Most incidents are caused by contact and movement between:
1. Cluster lid A and instrument panel
2. Acrylic lens and combination meter housing
3. Instrument panel to front pillar garnish
4. Instrument panel to windshield
5. Instrument panel mounting pins
6. Wiring harnesses behind the combination meter
7. A/C defroster duct and duct joint
These incidents can usually be located by tapping or moving the components to duplicate the noise or by
pressing on the components while driving to stop the noise. Most of these incidents can be repaired by apply-
ing felt cloth tape or silicon spray (in hard to reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate wiring har-
ness.
CAUTION:
Do not use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or rattle. If you saturate the area with silicone, you will
not be able to recheck the repair.
CENTER CONSOLE
Components to pay attention to include:
1. Shifter assembly cover to finisher
2. A/C control unit and cluster lid C
3. Wiring harnesses behind audio and A/C control unit
The instrument panel repair and isolation procedures also apply to the center console.
DOORS
Pay attention to the:
1. Finisher and inner panel making a slapping noise
2. Inside handle escutcheon to door finisher
3. Wiring harnesses tapping
4. Door striker out of alignment causing a popping noise on starts and stops
Tapping or moving the components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. You can usually insulate the areas with felt cloth tape or insulator foam blocks to
repair the noise.
