CONSULT-II Functions EFS005W3
CONSULT-II MAIN FUNCTION
In a diagnosis function (main function), there are “WORK SUPPORT”, “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”, “DATA MONI-
TOR”, “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR”, “ACTIVE TEST”, “FUNCTION TEST”, “ECU PART NUMBER”.
CONSULT-II BASIC OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector.
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”.

Control OperationEJS004G9
MODE CONTROL DIAL
Controls the air discharge outlets.
Positions the air outlet doors to the defrost position. Also positions the intake doors to the outside air position.
When shifting mode control dial to DEF under the following conditions, compressor is turned ON. (A/C LED
ON)
FAN: O N
A/C: OFF
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL (POTENTIO TEMPERATURE CONTROL)
Increase or decrease the set temperature.
FAN CONTROL DIAL
Automatically or Manually control the blower speed. Twenty-five speeds are available for manual control.
Shifting fan control dial to AUTO, compressor is turned ON automatically.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
When illumination is ON, rear window is defogged.
INTAKE SWITCH
When intake switch is ON, REC indicator turns ON, and air inlet is fixed to REC.
When press intake switch again, FRE indicator turns ON, and air inlet is fixed to FRE.
When intake switch is pressed for approximately 1.5 seconds or longer, REC and FRE indicators blink
twice. Then, automatic control mode is entered. Inlet status is displayed even during automatic control.
When DEF position or FRE indicator is turned ON, or when compressor is turned from ON to OFF, REC
switch is automatically turned OFF (fixed to FRE mode).
REC mode can be re-entered by pressing intake switch again. (Except DEF position)
A/C SWITCH
The compressor is ON or OFF.
(Pressing the A/C switch when the fan control dial is ON will turn off the A/C switch and compressor.)

3. Set in self-diagnostic mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press A/C switch for at least 5 seconds.
CAUTION:
If battery voltage drops below 12V during diagnosis step-3, actuator speed becomes slower and as a
result, the system may generate an error even when operation is usual. To avoid this, start engine
before performing this diagnosis.
>> GO TO 2.
2. STEP-1: LEDS ARE CHECKED
Check intake and A/C switch LEDs illumination.
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Refer to ATC-108, "
Self-Diagnosis" .
3. CHECK TO ADVANCE SELF-DIAGNOSIS STEP-2

CAUTION:
When switched to STEP-2, LED of REC position blinks for
approximately 25 seconds.
2. Advance to self-diagnosis STEP-2?
Check A/C switch LED illumination.
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Replace controller.
4. CHECK TO RETURN SELF-DIAGNOSIS STEP-1
Turn fan control dial to OFF position.
Return to self
-diagnosis STEP-1?

9. CHECK MALFUNCTIONING SENSOR
Refer to the following chart.
*1: Perform self-diagnosis STEP-2 under sunshine.
When performing indoors, aim a light (more than 60W) at sunload
sensor, otherwise LED of A/C switch will not indicate despite that
sunload sensor is functioning properly.
CAUTION:
When switched to STEP-2, LED of REC position blinks for
approximately 25 seconds.

AUXILIARY MECHANISM: TEMPERATURE SETTING TRIMMER
The trimmer compensates for differences in range of ±3°C between temperature setting (Temperature control
dial position) and temperature felt by driver.
Operating procedures for this trimmer are as follows:
1. Set temperature at 25°C.
2. Set fan control dial to OFF.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Set in self-diagnostic mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press intake switch for at least 5 seconds.
5. Turn temperature control dial as desired. Temperature will change at a rate of 1°C each time a dial is
turned.
When battery cable is disconnected, trimmer operation is canceled. Temperature set becomes that of initial
condition, i.e. 0°C.
AUXILIARY MECHANISM: FOOT POSITION SETTING TRIMMER
Wind distribution ratio in FOOT mode can be set.
Operating procedures for this trimmer are as follows:
1. Set temperature at 25°C.
2. Set fan control dial to AUTO.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Set in self-diagnostic mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press intake switch for at least 5 seconds.
5. Turn temperature control dial as desired.
