SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application.It is an on-vehicle multi-
plex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and kinks with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only. Refer to LAN-32, "
CAN
Communication Unit" .

Fail-Safe FunctionNFS000OM
VDC/TCS SYSTEM
In case of malfunction in the VDC/TCS system, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp are turned
on, and the condition of vehicle is the same as the condition of vehicles without VDC/TCS system. In case of
malfunction in the VDC/TCS system, the ABS control continues to operate normally without VDC/TCS control.
CAUTION:
If the fail-safe function is activated, then perform the self-diagnosis for VDC/TCS/ABS control system.
ABS, EBD SYSTEM
In case of electrical malfunctions with the ABS, ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, SLIP indicator
lamp will turn on. In case of electrical malfunctions with the EBD, brake warning lamp, ABS warning lamp,
VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp will turn on. Simultaneously, the VDC/TCS/ABS become one
of the following conditions of the fail-safe function.

For malfunction of ABS, only the EBD is activated and the condition of vehicle is the same condition of
vehicles without TCS/ABS system.
NOTE:
ABS self-diagnosis sound may be heard. That is a normal condition because a self-diagnosis for “Ignition
switch ON” and “The first starting” are being performed.

For malfunction of EBD, EBD and ABS become inoperative, and the condition of vehicle is the same as
the condition of vehicles without TCS/ABS, EBD system.
How to Proceed with DiagnosisNFS000NB
BASIC CONCEPT

Most important point to perform diagnosis is to understand systems (control and mechanism) in vehicle
thoroughly.

It is also important to clarify customer complaints before inspec-
tion.
First of all, reproduce symptom, and understand it fully.
Ask customer about his/her complaints carefully. In some cases,
it will be necessary to check symptom by driving vehicle with
customer.
NOTE:
Customers are not professionals. Do not assume “maybe cus-
tomer means...” or “maybe customer mentioned this symptom”.

It is essential to check symptoms right from beginning in order to
repair a malfunction completely.
For an intermittent malfunction, it is important to reproduce
symptom based on interview with customer and past examples.
Do not perform inspection on ad hoc basis. Most intermittent
malfunctions are caused by poor contacts. In this case, it will be
effective to shake suspected harness or connector by hand.
When repairs are performed without any symptom check, no
one can judge if malfunction has actually been eliminated.

After diagnosis, make sure to perform “erase memory”. Refer to
BRC-25, "
Self-Diagnosis" .

For an intermittent malfunction, move harness or harness con-
nector by hand to check poor contact or false open circuit.

Always read “GI General Information” to confirm general precautions. Refer to GI-4, "General Precau-
tions" .

Self-DiagnosisNFS000OI
DESCRIPTION

If an error is detected in the system, ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp
on the combination meter turn on. In this case, perform self-diagnosis as follows:

While CONSULT-II is used, ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, SLIP indicator lamp may be
turned on in a case of no malfunctioning.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Perform “CONSULT-II Starting Procedure”. Refer to GI-38, "
CONSULT-II Start Procedure" .
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Start engine and drive at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute.
5. After stopping vehicle, with the engine running, touch “ABS”, “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” in order on the CONSULT-II screen.
CAUTION:
If “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)” is touched immediately after starting engine or turning on the
ignition switch, “ABS” might not be displayed in the “SYSTEM SELECTION” screen. In this case,
repeat the operation from step 1. If it can not be shown after several attempts, ABS actuator and
electric unit (control unit) may have malfunctioned.
6. The self-diagnostic results are displayed. (If necessary, the self-diagnostic results can be printed out by touching “PRINT”.)

When “NO FAILURE” is displayed, check ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indica-
tor lamp.
7. Perform the appropriate inspection from the display item list, and repair or replace the malfunctioning component.
8. Drive the vehicle at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute. CAUTION:
In a case that a wheel sensor is malfunctioning, ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, SLIP
indicator lamp will turn on. If vehicle is not driven at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for
at least approximately 1 minute after repair of the wheel sensor system, ABS warning lamp, VDC
OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp may not turn off even if everything is normal. Check
again to make sure that there is no malfunction on other parts.
ERASE MEMORY
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Start the engine and touch “ABS”, “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”, “ERASE MEMORY” in order on the CON- SULT-II screen to erase the error memory.
CAUTION:
If the error memory is not erased, re-conduct the operation from step 4.
3. Perform self-diagnosis again, and make sure that diagnostic memory is erased.
4. Drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute as the final inspection, and make sure that the ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp turn off.
NOTE:
VDC OFF switch should not stay “ON” position.
