Removal and InstallationAES000N7
REMOVAL
1. Remove tire from vehicle with power tool.
2. Remove brake hose lock plate. Then remove brake hose from
strut assembly.
3. Remove wheel sensor harness from strut assembly.
CAUTION:
Do not pull wheel sensor harness.
4. Remove stabilizer connecting rod upper nut with power tool,
separate stabilizer connecting rod and strut assembly.
5. Remove fixing bolts and nuts between strut assembly and steer-
ing knuckle with power tool.
6. Remove mounting nuts on mounting insulator bracket with
power tool, then remove strut upper plate, strut spacer and strut
from vehicle.
INSTALLATION

Refer to FSU-8, "Components" for tightening torque. Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Refer to component parts location and do not reuse non-reusable parts.

After removing/installing or replacing suspension components, check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-6,
"Wheel Alignment Inspection" .

After adjusting wheel alignment, adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-6, "Adjust-
ment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

Check the following item after service.
–Installation condition of wheel sensor harness.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery DisconnectAAS000OH
NOTE:

This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM - NATS).

Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK″ position.

Always use CONSULT-II to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing
work. If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS, an electrically controlled steering lock
mechanism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery power is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables.
NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-II.
General PrecautionsAAS000EY

Do not operate the engine for an extended period of time without
proper exhaust ventilation.
Keep the work area well ventilated and free of any inflammable
materials. Special care should be taken when handling any
inflammable or poisonous materials, such as gasoline, refriger-
ant gas, etc. When working in a pit or other enclosed area, be
sure to properly ventilate the area before working with hazard-
ous materials.
Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.

Before jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other tire
blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. After
jacking up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with safety
stands at the points designated for proper lifting before working
on the vehicle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.

When removing a heavy component such as the engine or tran-
saxle/transmission, be careful not to lose your balance and drop
them. Also, do not allow them to strike adjacent parts, especially
the brake tubes and master cylinder.

Turn ignition switch from “OFF” to
“ON” position.Drive vehicle.
Turn ignition switch from “ON” to
“OFF” position.Disconnect battery negative cable.
Do not start engine, or check with
engine stopped.Depress brake pedal.
Start engine, or check with engine run-
ning.Release brake pedal.
Apply parking brake. Depress accelerator pedal.
Release parking brake. Release accelerator pedal.
Check after engine is warmed up suffi-
ciently.Pin terminal check for SMJ type ECM
and TCM connectors.
For details regarding the terminal
arrangement, refer to the “ELEC-
TRICAL UNITS” electrical reference
page at the end of the manual. Voltage should be measured with a
voltmeter.
Circuit resistance should be measured
with an ohmmeter.
Current should be measured with an
ammeter.
Pulse signal should be checked with
an oscilloscope.

Harness Indication

Letter designations next to test meter probe indicate harness
(connector) wire color.

Connector numbers in a single circle M33 indicate harness con-
nectors.
Component Indication
Connector numbers in a double circle F211 indicate component connectors.
Switch Positions
Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the “normal” condition.
A vehicle is in the “normal” condition when:

ignition switch is “OFF”,

doors, hood and trunk lid/back door are closed,

pedals are not depressed, and

parking brake is released.

Place wheel chocks at both front and back of the wheels on the ground.
CAUTION:
There is canister just behind Garage jack point rear. Jack up be carefully.
2-Pole Lift AAS000EF
WARNING:
When lifting the vehicle, open the lift arms as wide as possible and ensure that the front and rear of
the vehicle are well balanced.
When setting the lift arm, do not allow the arm to contact the brake tubes, brake cable, fuel lines and
sill spoiler.
