Precautions
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) ªAIR BAGº AND ªSEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONERº
The Supplemental Restraint System such as ªAIR BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of
collision. The SRS composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL R20 is as follows (The composition
varies according to the destination and optional equipment.):
IFor a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the steer-
ing wheel), front passenger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on passenger side), front seat
belt pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
I For a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of front side air bag module (located in the outer side of front
seat), side air bag (satellite) sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a frontal
collision), wiring harness, warning lamp (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision).
WARNING:
I To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance should be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN dealer.
I Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system.
I Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
Precaution for Seat Belt Service
CAUTION:
IBefore removing the seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect both
battery cables and wait at least 3 minutes.
I Do not use electrical test equipment for seat belt pre-tensioner connector.
I After replacing or reinstalling seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, or reconnecting seat belt pre-ten-
sioner connector, check the system function. Refer to ªSRS Operation Checkº for details. (RS-38)
I Do not disassemble buckle or seat belt assembly.
I Replace anchor bolts if they are deformed or worn out.
I Never oil tongue and buckle.
I If any component of seat belt assembly is questionable, do not repair. Replace the whole seat belt
assembly.
I If webbing is cut, frayed, or damaged, replace seat belt assembly.
I When replacing seat belt assembly, use a genuine seat belt assembly.
After A Collision
WARNING:
Inspect all seat belt assemblies including retractors and attaching hardware after any collision.
NISSAN recommends that all seat belt assemblies in use during a collision be replaced unless the
collision was minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury in an accident. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a colli-
sion should also be replaced if either damage or improper operation is noted. Seat belt pre-tensioner
should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during a frontal collision in which the air bags
are deployed.
Replace any seat belt assembly if:
IThe seat belt was in use at the time of a collision (except for minor collisions and the belts, retractors and
buckles show no damage and continue to operate properly).
I The seat belt was damaged in an accident. (i.e. torn webbing, bent retractor or guide, etc.)
I The seat belt attaching point was damaged in an accident. Inspect the seat belt attaching area for dam-
age or distortion and repair as necessary before installing a new seat belt assembly.
I Anchor bolts are deformed or worn out.

PRECAUTIONS FOR SRS ªAIR BAGº AND ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº SERVICE
IDo not use electrical test equipment to check SRS circuits unless instructed to in this Service Manual.
I Before servicing the SRS, turn ignition switch ªOFFº, disconnect both battery cables and wait at least 3
minutes.
For approximately 3 minutes after the cables are removed, it is still possible for the air bag and seat belt
pre-tensioner to deploy. Therefore, do not work on any SRS connectors or wires until at least 3 minutes
have passed.
I Diagnosis sensor unit must always be installed with their arrow marks ª +º pointing towards the front of
the vehicle for proper operation. Also check diagnosis sensor unit for cracks, deformities or rust before
installation and replace as required.
I The spiral cable must be aligned with the neutral position since its rotations are limited. Do not attempt to
turn steering wheel or column after removal of steering gear.
I Handle air bag module carefully. Always place driver and front passenger air bag modules with the pad
side facing upward and place front side air bag module (built-in type) standing with stud bolt side setting
bottom.
I Conduct self-diagnosis to check entire SRS for proper function after replacing any components.
I After air bag inflates, the front instrument panel assembly should be replaced if damaged.

Trouble Diagnoses Introduction
CAUTION:
IDo not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
I Do not attempt to repair, splice or modify the SRS wiring harness. If the harness is damaged,
replace it with a new one.
I Keep ground portion clean.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using ªAIR BAGº warning lamp and/or CONSULT-II. The read-
ing of these results is accomplished using one of two modes Ð ªUser modeº and ªDiagnosis modeº.
The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system
malfunction through the operation of the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp.
The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.
The mode applications for the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp and CONSULT-II are as follows:
User mode Diagnosis mode Display type
ªAIR BAGº warning lamp X X ON-OFF operation
CONSULT-II Ð X Monitoring
NOTE:
Seat belt pre-tensioner malfunction is indicated by ªAIR BAGº warning lamp.
DIAGNOSIS MODE FOR CONSULT-II
I ªSELF-DIAG [CURRENT]º
A current self-diagnosis result (also indicated by the number of warning lamp flashes in the Diagnosis
mode) is displayed on the CONSULT-II screen in real time. This refers to a malfunctioning part requiring
repairs.
I ªSELF-DIAG [PAST]º
Diagnosis results previously stored in the memory are displayed on the CONSULT-II screen. The stored
results are not erased until memory erasing is executed.
I ªTROUBLE DIAG RECORDº
With TROUBLE DIAG RECORD, diagnosis results previously erased by a reset operation can be displayed
on the CONSULT-II screen.
I ªECU DISCRIMINATED NO.º
The diagnosis sensor unit for each vehicle model is assigned with its own, individual classification num-
ber (refer to the table below). This number will be displayed on the CONSULT-II screen. When replacing
the diagnosis sensor unit, refer to the part number for the compatibility. After installation, replacement with
a correct unit can be checked by confirming this classification number on the CONSULT-II screen.
For NISSAN MODEL R20, the diagnosis sensor unit classification numbers are as follows:
MODEL ECU DISCRIMINATED NO.
Models with single air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner A928
Models with dual air bags and seat belt pre-tensioner A929
Models with dual air bags, side air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner A930
