SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
INSULATOR (Light foam block)
80845-71L00: 30 mm (1.18 in) thick, 30 × 50 mm (1.18 × 1.97 in)
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 found in the kit, 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 TroubleshootingAIS0059J
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 from
the Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) to repair the noise.

Removal and InstallationAHS000I2
REMOVAL
CAUTION:
Before servicing SRS, turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect both battery cables and wait at least 3 min-
utes.
1. Remove seat belt pre-tensioner. Refer to SB-4, "
Removal and Installation of Front Seat Belt" .
2. Remove side air bag (Satellite) sensor fixing nuts.
3. Remove the side air bag (Satellite) sensor connector.
CAUTION:

Do not use old nuts; replace with new ones.

Check side air bag (Satellite) sensor to ensure it is free of deformities, dents, cracks or rust. If it
shows any visible signs of damage, replace it with new one.

Do not disassemble side air bag (Satellite) sensor.

Replace side air bag (Satellite) sensor if it has been dropped or sustained an impact.
INSTALLATION
Install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:

Check side air bag (Satellite) sensor for proper installation.

After replacement of side air bag (Satellite) sensor, perform self-diagnosis to make sure that no
malfunction is detected. Refer to SRS-17, "
SRS Operation Check" .

For Side CollisionAHS000I7
WHEN THE SIDE AIR BAG IS ACTIVATED IN THE SIDE COLLISION:
1. Replace the following components:
–All parts of front seatback (including front seatback frame) with front side air bag module (on the side on
which front side air bag is activated)
–Curtain air bag module (on the side on which side curtain air bag is activated)
–Diagnosis sensor unit
–Satellite sensor (on the side on which side air bag and side curtain air bag are activated)
2. Check the SRS components and the related parts using the following table.
–Replace any SRS components and the related parts showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks,
deformation).
3. Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-II or “AIR BAG” warning lamp. Refer to SRS-17, "
SRS Operation
Check" . Ensure entire SRS operates properly.
