A/T CONTROL SYSTEM
Lock-up Applied
In the lock-up applied state, the torque converter clutch control valve is set into the locked state by the torque
converter clutch solenoid and lock-up apply pressure is generated.
In this way, the torque converter clutch piston is pressed and coupled.
SMOOTH LOCK-UP CONTROL
When shifting from the lock-up released state to the lock-up applied state, the current output to the torque con-
verter clutch solenoid is controlled with the TCM. In this way, when shifting to the lock-up applied state, the
torque converter clutch is temporarily set to the half-clutched state to reduce the shock.
Half-clutched State
The current output from the TCM to the torque converter clutch solenoid is varied to gradually increase the
torque converter clutch solenoid pressure.
In this way, the lock-up apply pressure gradually rises and while the torque converter clutch piston is put into
half-clutched status, the torque converter clutch piston operating pressure is increased and the coupling is
completed smoothly.
Engine Brake ControlECS00FWO
lThe forward one-way clutch transmits the drive force from the engine to the rear wheels. But the reverse
drive from the rear wheels is not transmitted to the engine because the one-way clutch is idling.
Therefore, the low coast brake solenoid is operated to prevent the forward one-way clutch from idling and
the engine brake is operated in the same manner as conventionally.
lThe operation of the low coast brake solenoid switches the low coast brake switching valve and controls
the coupling and releasing of the low coast brake.
The low coast brake reducing valve controls the low coast brake coupling force.

BREAK-IN OPERATION
When replacing compressor clutch assembly, always conduct the break-in operation. This is done by engag-
ing and disengaging the clutch about 30 times. Break-in operation raises the level of transmitted torque.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EFS006DL
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of
this Service Manual.
WARNING:
lTo 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 must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
lImproper 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 SRS section.
lDo not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions for Brake SystemEFS005SD
lClean dust on front brake and rear brake with a vacuum dust collector. Do not blow with compressed air.
lRecommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3” or “DOT 4”.
lNever reuse drained brake fluid.
lBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed
on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
lTo clean or wash all parts of master cylinder, disc brake caliper, wheel cylinder, use new brake fluid.
lNever use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.
lUse a flare nut wrench when removing flare nuts, and use a flare
nut torque wrench when tighten flare nuts.
lAlways tighten brake lines to the specified torque when install-
ing.
lBefore working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect electri-
cal connector of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or
the battery cables.
lBurnish the new brake surfaces after refinishing or replacing
drums or rotors, after replacing pads or linings, or if a soft pedal
occurs at very low mileage.
Refer toBR-29, "
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE".
WARNING:
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with a dust collector.SBR820BA

WHEEL SENSORS
REMOVAL
Pay attention to the following when removing wheel sensor.
CAUTION:
lAs much as possible, avoid rotating wheel sensor when removing it. Pull wheel sensors out with-
out pulling on sensor harness.
lTake care to avoid damaging wheel sensor edges or rotor teeth. Remove wheel sensor first before
removing front or rear wheel hub. This is to avoid damage to wheel sensor wiring and loss of sen-
sor function.
INSTALLATION
Pay attention to the following when installing wheel sensor. Tighten installation bolts and nuts to the specified
torques.
lWhen installing, make sure there is no foreign material such as iron chips on and in the mounting hole of
the wheel sensor. Make sure no foreign material has been caught in the sensor rotor. Remove any foreign
material and clean the mount.
lWhen installing wheel sensor, be sure to press rubber grommets in until they lock at locations shown
above in figure. When installed, harness must not be twisted.
