CAUTION:
Do not use electrical test equipment to check SRS circuit.
1. Check operation of ªAIR BAGº warning lamp.After turning ignition key to ªONº position, ªAIR BAGº warning
lamp illuminates. The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp will go off after
about 7 seconds if no malfunction is detected. If any of the fol-
lowing ªAIR BAGº warning lamp conditions occur, immediately
check the air bag system. Refer to RS-38 for details.
I The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp does not illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned ªONº.
I The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp does not go off about 7 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned ªONº.
I The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp blinks after about 7 seconds after
the ignition switch is turned ªONº.
2. Visually check SRS components.
1) Diagnosis sensor unit
I Check diagnosis sensor unit and bracket for dents, cracks and
deformities.
I Check connectors for damage, and terminals for deformities.
2) Air bag module and steering wheel
I Remove air bag module from steering wheel, instrument panel
or seatback. Check harness cover and connectors for damage,
terminals for deformities, and harness for binding.

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

Service Notice
IWhen removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding onto the vehicle body to prevent
scratches.
I Handle trim, molding, instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to oil
or damage them.
I Apply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts.
I When applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts.
I When replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, members, etc.), be sure to take rust pre-
vention measures.
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 system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL R20 is as follows (The compo-
sition 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).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the RSsection of this Service Manual.
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. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the RS section.
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.

Introduction
To prevent the ozone layer from being destroyed, the HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant has replaced the previ-
ously used CFC-12 (R-12).
The new and previous service tools, refrigerant, lubricant, etc. are not interchangeable due to differences in
their physical properties and characteristics.
Always service the HFC-134a (R-134a) air conditioning system using the specified tools, lubricant and
refrigerant, observing the following precautions:
PRECAUTIONS
HA-2
http://vnx.su/
HFC-134a (R-134a) Service Tools and
Equipment
It is important to understand that HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant, and the specified lubricant which must be
used with HFC-134a (R-134a), must never be mixed with CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and/or the CFC-12 (R-12)
lubricant.
This means that separate and non-interchangeable service equipment must be used for handling each type
of refrigerant/lubricant.
To prevent the mixing of refrigerants/lubricants, refrigerant container fittings, service hose fittings, and service
equipment fittings (equipment which handles refrigerant and/or lubricant) are different between CFC-12 (R-12)
and HFC-134a (R-134a).
Adaptors to convert from one size of fitting to another must never be used: refrigerant/lubricant contamination
will occur and compressor failure will result.
