INSULATOR (Light foam block)
80845-71L00: 30 mm (1.18 in) thick, 30 × 50 mm (1.18 × 1.97 in)
FELT CLOTHTAPE
Used to insulate where movement does not occur. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
68370-4B000: 15 × 25 mm (0.59 × 0.98 in) pad/68239-13E00: 5 mm (0.20 in) wide tape roll The following
materials, not found in the kit, can also be used to repair squeaks and rattles.
UHMW(TEFLON) TAPE
Insulates where slight movement is present. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
SILICONE GREASE
Used in place of UHMW tape that will be visible or not fit.
Note: Will only last a few months.
SILICONE SPRAY
Use when grease cannot be applied.
DUCT TAPE
Use to eliminate movement.
CONFIRM THE REPAIR
Confirm that the cause of a noise is repaired by test driving the vehicle. Operate the vehicle under the same
conditions as when the noise originally occurred. Refer to the notes on the Diagnostic Worksheet.
Generic Squeak and Rattle TroubleshootingNIS0028N
Refer to Table of Contents for specific component removal and installation information.
INSTRUMENT PANEL
Most incidents are caused by contact and movement between:
1. The cluster lid A and instrument panel
2. Acrylic lens and combination meter housing
3. Instrument panel to front pillar garnish
4. Instrument panel to windshield
5. Instrument panel mounting pins
6. Wiring harnesses behind the combination meter
7. A/C defroster duct and duct joint
These incidents can usually be located by tapping or moving the components to duplicate the noise or by
pressing on the components while driving to stop the noise. Most of these incidents can be repaired by apply-
ing felt cloth tape or silicon spray (in hard to reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate wiring har-
ness.
CAUTION:
Do not use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or rattle. If you saturate the area with silicone, you will
not be able to recheck the repair.
CENTER CONSOLE
Components to pay attention to include:
1. Shifter assembly cover to finisher
2. A/C control unit and cluster lid C
3. Wiring harnesses behind audio and A/C control unit
The instrument panel repair and isolation procedures also apply to the center console.
DOORS
Pay attention to the:
1. Finisher and inner panel making a slapping noise
2. Inside handle escutcheon to door finisher
3. Wiring harnesses tapping
4. Door striker out of alignment causing a popping noise on starts and stops
Tapping or moving the components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. You can usually insulate the areas with felt cloth tape or insulator foam blocks from
the Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) to repair the noise.

AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONERPFP:28491
System Description NIS001UO

The system automatically moves the driver seat to facilitate entry/exit to/from the vehicle. The automatic
drive positioner control unit can also store the optimum driving positions (driver seat, steering wheel posi-
tion (tilt, telescopic) and door mirror position) for 2 people. If the driver is changes, one-touch operation
allows changing to the other driving position.

The settings (ON/OFF) of the automatic sliding seat (Entry/Exiting operation) at entry/exit can be changed
as desired, using the display unit in the center of the instrument panel. The set content is transmitted by
CAN communication, from display control unit to driver seat control unit.

Using CONSULT-II, the seat slide and steering wheel amount at entry/exit setting can be changed.
MANUAL OPERATION
The driving position [seat position, steering wheel position (tilt, telescopic) and door mirror position] can be
adjusted with the power seat switch or ADP steering switch or door mirror remote control switch.
NOTE:

The seat can be manually operated with the ignition switch OFF.

The door mirrors can be manually operated with the ignition switch turned ACC or ON.
A U T O M AT I C O P E R AT I O N
NOTE:

Disconnecting the battery erases the stored memory.

After connecting the battery, insert the key into the ignition cylinder and turn the driver door switch ON (open) →OFF (close) →ON
(open), the Entry/ Exiting operation becomes possible.

After exiting operation is carried out, return operation can be operated.
NOTE:
During automatic operation, if the ignition switch is turned ON →START, the automatic operation is suspended. When the ignition switch
returns to ON, it resumes. Function Description
Memory switch operation The seat, steering and door mirror move to the stored driving position by pushing
memory switch (1 or 2).
Entry/Exiting function Exiting operation At exit, the seat moves backward and steering wheel moves forward/upward.
Entry operation
At entry, the seat and steering wheel returns from the exiting position to the previous
driving position.
keyfob interlock operation Perform memory operation, exiting operation and entry operation by pressing keyfob
unlock button.
Auto operation temporary stop
conditions. When ignition switch turned to START during memory switch operation and return opera-
tion, memory switch operation and entry operation is stopped.
Auto operation stop conditions.

When the vehicle speed becomes 7 km/h (4 MPH) or higher.

When the setting switch, memory switch 1, or 2 are pressed.

When A/T selector lever is in any position other than P.

When the door mirror remote control switch is operated (when ignition switch turned to
ON or ACC).

When power seat switch turned ON.

When ADP steering switch turned ON (telescopic operation or tilt operation).

When door mirror operates (only memory switch operation).

When driver seat sliding Entry/Exiting setting is OFF (only entry/exiting operation).

When steering wheel tilt and telescopic Entry/Exiting setting is OFF (only entry/exiting
operation).

When the tilt and telescopic sensor malfunction is detected.

AWD SYSTEM
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
AWD SYSTEMPFP:41650
Power Transfer DiagramNDS0009U
System DescriptionNDS0009V
DESCRIPTION

Electronic control allows optimal distribution of torque to front/rear wheels to match road conditions.

Makes possible stable driving, with no wheel spin, on snowy roads or other slippery surfaces.

On roads which do not require AWD, it contributes to improved fuel economy by driving in conditions close
to rear-wheel drive.

Sensor inputs determine the vehicle's turning condition, and in response tight cornering/braking are con-
trolled by distributing optimum torque to front wheels.
NOTE:

When driving, if there is a large difference between front and rear wheel speed which continues for a long
time, fluid temperature of drive system parts becomes too high and AWD warning lamp flashes rapidly.
(When AWD warning lamp flashes, vehicle changes to rear-wheel drive conditions.) Also, optional distri-
bution of torque sometimes becomes rigid before lamp flashes rapidly, but it is not malfunction.

If AWD warning lamp is flashing rapidly, stop vehicle and allow it to idle for some time. Flashing will stop
and AWD system will be restored.

When driving, AWD warning lamp may flash slowly if there is a significant difference in diameter of the
tires. At this time, vehicle performance is not fully available and cautious driving is required. (Continues
until engine is turned OFF.)

If the warning lamp flashes slowly during driving but remains OFF after engine is restarted, the system is
normal. If it again flashes slowly after driving for some time, vehicle must be inspected.

When the difference of revolution speed between the front and rear wheel mode the shift occasionally
changes to direct 4-wheel driving conditions automatically. This is not malfunction.
