REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER

With power and ground supplied, the rear window defogger and door mirror defogger filaments heat and defog
the rear window and door mirror.
When the system is activated, the rear window defogger indicator illuminates in the rear window defogger
switch.
Power is supplied

through rear window defogger relay terminal 3 (without door mirror defogger or side air bag) or

through rear window defogger relay terminal 5 (with door mirror defogger or side air bag)

to rear window defogger switch terminal 3 (without auto A/C) or

to A/C auto amp, terminal 23 (with auto A/C).
System Description / RHD ModelsEIS008O7
The rear window defogger system is controlled by time control unit. The rear window defogger operates only
for approximately 15 minutes.
Power is supplied at all times

through 20A fuse (No.25, located in the fuse and fusible link box) and

to rear window defogger relay terminal 3 (with side air bag) or

to rear window defogger relay terminal 5 (without side air bag).
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No.5, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to rear window defogger relay terminal 1 and

to time control unit terminal 17.
Ground is supplied

to rear window defogger switch terminals 2 and 4 (without auto A/C) or

to A/C auto amp. Terminal 3 (with auto A/C)

through body ground M27 and M70.
When the rear window defogger switch is turned ON, ground is supplied

to time control unit terminal 35

through rear window defogger switch terminal 1 (without auto A/C) or

through A/C auto amp, terminal 22 (with auto A/C).
Terminal 27 of the time control unit then supplies ground to the rear window defogger relay terminal 2.
With power and ground supplied, the rear window defogger relay is energized.
Power is supplied

through rear window defogger terminal 3 (without side air bag) or

through rear window defogger terminal 5 (with side air bag)

to the rear window defogger.
The rear window defogger and door mirror defogger has an independent ground.
With power and ground supplied, the rear window defogger and door mirror defogger filaments heat and defog
the rear window and door mirror.
When the system is activated, the rear window defogger indicator illuminates in the rear window defogger
switch.
Power is supplied

through rear window defogger relay terminal 3 (without side air bag) or

through rear window defogger relay terminal 5 (with side air bag)

to rear window defogger switch terminal 3 (without auto A/C) or

to A/C auto amp, terminal 23 (with auto A/C).

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 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 TroubleshootingEIS008C9
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.

roof side mounting face. Tighten bolts of the sunroof unit side
and then tighten bolts of the roof side.
NOTE:
Install the sunroof bracket evenly so that the roof surface has no
distortion.
5. Tighten bolts of sunroof motor bracket.
6. Connect the sunroof motor harness connector.
7. Connect the interior lamp harness connector.
GLASS LID
Removal
1. Tilt up glass lid.
2. Remove side trim.
3. Confirm the number of shims between glass lid and link.
NOTE:
Number of shims. Standard: 2, max: 4.
4. Remove mounting nut and then remove glass lid.
Installation
Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:

Tighten nuts on glass lid diagonally.

After installation, adjust the fit.
SUNSHADE
Removal and installation
1. Remove glass lid.
2. Remove rear drain.
3. Move link assembly to the fully open position.
4. Loosen the mounting screws of the front LH shade slider.
