PFP:23796
Component DescriptionEBS00B7P
Intake valve timing control solenoid valve is activated by ON/OFF
pulse duty (ratio) signals from the ECM.
The intake valve timing control solenoid valve changes the oil
amount and direction of flow through intake valve timing control unit
or stops oil flow.
The longer pulse width advances valve angle.
The shorter pulse width retards valve angle.
When ON and OFF pulse widths become equal, the solenoid valve
stops oil pressure flow to fix the intake valve angle at the control
position.
CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor ModeEBS00B7Q
Specification data are reference values.
ECM Terminals and Reference ValueEBS00B7R
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and body ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

BASIC SERVICE PROCEDURE
3. Remove fuel hose. Refer toEM-17, "INTAKE MANIFOLD".
lDo not twist or kink fuel hose because it is plastic hose.
lDo not remove fuel hose from quick connector.
lKeep the original fuel hose to be free from intrusion of dust or foreign substances with a suitable cover.
4. Install the fuel pressure gauge as shown in the figure.
lWipe off oil or dirt from hose insertion part using cloth moist-
ened with gasoline.
lApply proper amount of gasoline between top of the fuel tube
and No.1 spool.
lInsert fuel hose for fuel pressure check until it touches the
No.1 spool on fuel tube.
lUse NISSAN genuine hose clamp (part number: 16439
N4710 or 16439 40U00).
lWhen reconnecting fuel line, always use new clamps.
lWhen reconnecting fuel hose, check the original fuel hose for
damage and abnormality.
lUse a torque driver to tighten clamps.
lInstall hose clamp to the position within 1 - 2 mm (0.04 - 0.08
in).
lMake sure that clamp screw does not contact adjacent parts.
5. After connecting fuel hose for fuel pressure check, pull the hose
with a force of approximately 98 N (10 kg, 22 lb) to confirm fuel
tube does not come off.
6. Turn ignition switch "ON", and check for fuel leakage.
7. Start engine and check for fuel leakage.
8. Read the indication of fuel pressure gauge.
lDo not perform fuel pressure check with system operating. Fuel pressure gauge may indicate false
readings.
lDuring fuel pressure check, confirm for fuel leakage from fuel connection every 3 minutes.
9. If result is unsatisfactory, go to next step.
10. Check the following.
lFuel hoses and fuel tubes for clogging
lFuel filter for clogging
lFuel pump
lFuel pressure regulator for clogging
If OK, replace fuel pressure regulator.

IVT CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE
IVT CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE
PFP:23796
DescriptionEBS00BM1
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This mechanism hydraulically controls cam phases continuously with the fixed operating angle of the intake
valve.
The ECM receives signals such as crankshaft position, camshaft position, engine speed, and engine coolant
temperature. Then, the ECM sends ON/OFF pulse duty signals to the intake valve timing control solenoid
valve depending on driving status. This makes it possible to control the shut/open timing of the intake valve to
increase engine torque in low/mid speed range and output in high-speed range.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Intake valve timing control solenoid valve is activated by ON/OFF
pulse duty (ratio) signals from the ECM.
The intake valve timing control solenoid valve changes the oil
amount and direction of flow through intake valve timing control unit
or stops oil flow.
The longer pulse width advances valve angle.
The shorter pulse width retards valve angle.
When ON and OFF pulse widths become equal, the solenoid valve
stops oil pressure flow to fix the intake valve angle at the control
position.

ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM

EBS0037B
Fuel Injection Control SystemEBS0036G
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Three types of fuel injection control are provided to accommodate engine operating conditions; normal control,
idle control and start control. The ECM determines the appropriate fuel injection control. Under each control,
the amount of fuel injected is adjusted to improve engine performance.
Pulse signals are exchanged between ECM and Electronic Drive Unit (EDU). EDU controls fuel injectors
according to the input signals to adjust the amount of fuel injected to the preset value.
START CONTROL
Input/Output Signal Chart
When the ECM receives a start signal from the ignition switch, the
ECM adapts the fuel injection system for the start control. The
amount of fuel injected at engine starting is a preset program value
in the ECM. The program is determined by the engine speed, engine
coolant temperature and common rail fuel pressure.
For better startability under cool engine conditions, the lower the
coolant temperature becomes, the greater the amount of fuel
injected. The ECM ends the start control when the engine speed
reaches the specific value, and shifts the control to the normal or idle
control.
