3.INSPECTION USING DRIVE MODE CHANGE-OVER SWITCH
lOn data monitor screen of the CONSULT, check 4WD mode switch.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to 2WD mode when the 2WD switch is pressed.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to AUTO mode when the AUTO switch is pressed.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to LOCK mode when the LOCK switch is pressed.
Is inspection result OK?
YES >> No malfunction detected.
NO >>
lNot in AUTO mode. (In 2WD or LOCK mode)
Countermeasure: Slightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the operation mode
changes to LOCK mode.
lCheck path between drive mode switch and 4WD/ABS control unit E122 terminal No.27 (BR).
(AUTO mode is not available because a malfunction is present in the 2WD mode harness.)
NOTICE:

l2WD mode: Operation changes to 2WD mode when 4WD/ABS control unit connector terminal
No. 27 is shorted to ground.
lAUTO mode: Operation changes to AUTO mode when 4WD/ABS control unit connector termi-
nals No. 27 and No. 26 were shorted to ground.
lLOCK mode: Operation changes to LOCK mode when 4WD/ABS control unit connector E122
terminal No. 26 (L) is shorted to ground.

lWheel driving, 4WD warning lamp flashes rapidly. (When it flashes for Approx. 1 minute, then does not
illuminate.)
Rapid flashing: 2 times/second
This phenomenon protects drivetrain parts when a heavy load is applied to the electronically controlled
coupling and multiple disc clutch temperature increases. It is not a malfunction.
Wheel driving, 4WD warning lamp flashes slowly. (When it continues to illumi-
nate until engine turns OFF.)

seconds. Confirm the 4WD warning lamp flashes slowly.
(Check if the value of IMPROPER SIZE TIRE MONITOR is 8 mm or more.)
When the tire size is normal, the value of IMPROPER SIZE TIRE MONITOR will change from 8 mm or
more to 0 - 4 mm (normal condition) after the vehicle is driven 20 km/h or faster for approximately 5
seconds.
2. Tire inspection
lInspection of tire air pressure
lWear condition
lCheck size of the front and rear tires. (No excessive difference should be observed.) Refer toGI-46,

1. Check using the data monitor function of the CONSULT.
Perform inspection by the data monitor function of the CONSULT.
–Check if the vehicle operation changes to 2WD, AUTO, and LOCK modes.
–Check current supplied to the E-TS solenoid valve in AUTO mode.
2. Check using the active test function of the CONSULT.
Using active test mode of CONSULT, supply current to the E-TS solenoid valve and check that the monitor
current becomes close to this supply current.
lThe 4WD/ABS control unit is normal when the difference between E-TS solenoid valve current and the
monitor current is within±10%.
It is necessary to inspect the electronically controlled coupling assembly.
Tight-corner braking symptom occurs when the vehicle is started in AUTO
mode (4WD warning lamp remain OFF).

Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EFS0019N
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of
this Service Manual.
WAR NIN G:
lTo 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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
lImproper 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 SRS section.
lDo not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow harness connector.
Precautions for Brake SystemEFS0019O
lRecommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3” or “DOT 4”.
lNever reuse drained brake fluid.
lBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed
on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
lNever use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of hydraulic system.
lUse flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake tubes.
lAlways torque brake lines when installing.
lBefore working, turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the
connectors for the ESP/TCS/ABS actuator and control unit or
the battery terminals.
lBurnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing
drums or rotors, after replacing pads or linings, or if a soft pedal
occurs at very low mileage. Refer toBR-10, "
Brake Burnishing
Procedure".
WAR NIN G:
Clean brakes with a vacuum dust collector to minimize risk
of health hazard from powder caused by friction.
Precautions for Brake ControlEFS0019P
lDuring the EPS/TCS/ABS operation, the brake pedal vibrates lightly and its mechanical noise may be
heard. This is a normal condition.
lJust after starting the vehicle after ignition switch ON, the brake pedal may vibrate or the motor operating
noise may be heard from the engine compartment. This is a normal status of the operation check.
lThe stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when the vehicle drives on rough,
gravel, or snowy (fresh deep snow) road.
lIf a malfunction is indicated by the ABS warning lamp, or other warning lamps, collect the necessary infor-
mation from the customer (what symptoms are present under what conditions) and find out the possible
causes before starting the service. Besides the electrical system inspection, check the booster operation,
brake fluid level, and oil leaks.
lIf the tire size and type are used in a improper combination, or the brake pads are not NISSAN genuine
parts, the stopping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
lIf there is a radio, antenna, or antenna lead-in wire (including wiring) near the control unit, the ESP/TCS/
ABS function may have a malfunction or error.
lIf aftermarket parts (e.g. Car stereo equipment, CD player) have been installed, check the electrical har-
nesses for pinches, open, and improper wiring.
