INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data
link connector, which is located under driver side dash panel.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Touch “START(NISSAN BASED VHCL)”.
5. Touch “ENGINE”.
If “ENGINE” is not indicated, go to GI-35, "
CONSULT-II Data
Link Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
6. Perform each diagnostic test mode according to each service
procedure.
For further information, see the CONSULT-II Operation Manual.

DIAG TROUBLE
CODE
[PXXXX]

The engine control component part/control system has a trouble code, it is displayed as PXXXX. (Refer to
EC-482, "
INDEX FOR DTC" .)
FUEL SYS-B1

“Fuel injection system status” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.

One mode in the following is displayed.
“Mode2”: Open loop due to detected system malfunction
“Mode3”: Open loop due to driving conditions (power enrichment, deceleration enleanment)
“Mode4”: Closed loop - using oxygen sensor(s) as feedback for fuel control
“Mode5”: Open loop - has not yet satisfied condition to go to closed loop
COOLANT TEMP [°C]
or [°F]

The engine coolant temperature at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
L-FUEL TRM-B1 [%]

“Long-term fuel trim” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.

The long-term fuel trim indicates much more gradual feedback compensation to the base fuel schedule
than short-term fuel trim.
S-FUEL TRM-B1 [%]

“Short-term fuel trim” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.

The short-term fuel trim indicates dynamic or instantaneous feedback compensation to the base fuel
schedule.
ENGINE SPEED
[rpm]

The engine speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
VHCL SPEED [km/h]
or [mph]

The vehicle speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
B/FUEL SCHDL
[msec]

The base fuel schedule at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
INT/A TEMP SE [°C]
or [°F]

The intake air temperature at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

START SIGNAL
[ON/OFF]××
Indicates start signal status [ON/OFF] com-
puted by the ECM according to the signals of
engine speed and battery voltage.
After starting the engine, [OFF] is
displayed regardless of the starter
signal.
CLSD THL POS
[ON/OFF]××

Indicates idle position [ON/OFF] computed by
ECM according to the accelerator pedal posi-
tion sensor signal.
AIR COND SIG
[ON/OFF]××

Indicates [ON/OFF] condition of the air condi-
tioner switch as determined by the air condi-
tioner signal.
P/N POSI SW
[ON/OFF]××

Indicates [ON/OFF] condition from the park/
neutral position (PNP) switch signal.
PW/ST SIGNAL
[ON/OFF]××

[ON/OFF] condition of the power steering pres-
sure sensor as determined by the power steer-
ing pressure sensor signal is indicated.
LOAD SIGNAL
[ON/OFF]××

Indicates [ON/OFF] condition from the electrical
load signal.
ON: Rear window defogger switch is ON and/or
lighting switch is in 2nd position.
OFF: Both rear window defogger switch and
lighting switch are OFF.
IGNITION SW
[ON/OFF]×

Indicates [ON/OFF] condition from ignition
switch.
HEATER FAN SW
[ON/OFF]×

Indicates [ON/OFF] condition from the heater
fan switch signal.
BRAKE SW
[ON/OFF]×

Indicates [ON/OFF] condition from the stop
lamp switch signal.
INJ PULSE-B1
[msec]×

Indicates the actual fuel injection pulse width
compensated by ECM according to the input
signals.
When the engine is stopped, a
certain computed value is indi-
cated.
IGN TIMING
[BTDC]×

Indicates the ignition timing computed by ECM
according to the input signals.
When the engine is stopped, a
certain value is indicated.
PURG VOL C/V
[%]

Indicates the EVAP canister purge volume con-
trol solenoid valve control value computed by
the ECM according to the input signals.

The opening becomes larger as the value
increases.
INT/V TIM (B1)
[°CA]

Indicates [°CA] of intake camshaft advanced
angle.
INT/V SOL (B1) [%]

The control value of the intake valve timing con-
trol solenoid valve (determined by ECM accord-
ing to the input signal) is indicated.

The advance angle becomes larger as the
value increases
VIAS S/V
[ON/OFF]

The control condition of the VIAS control sole-
noid valve (determined by ECM according to
the input signals) is indicated.
ON: VIAS control solenoid valve is operating.
OFF: VIAS control solenoid valve is not operat-
ing.
