LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENT
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
LASER BEAM AIMING ADJUSTMENTPFP:00026
OutlineNKS003EQ
Adjust the laser beam aiming every time the ICC sensor is removed or installed.
CAUTION:
Adjust laser beam aiming at a horizontal place as far as 12 m (39 ft) forward the vehicle can be
seen.
Adjust laser beam aiming 5 seconds after starting engine.
Never view ICC sensor integrated unit body window directly during laser beam aiming adjustment.
Follow the CONSULT-ll when adjusting the laser beam aiming (laser beam aiming adjustment can-
not be operated without CONSULT-ll).
Never ride on vehicle during laser beam aiming adjustment.
Idle and turn headlamps OFF during laser beam aiming adjustment.
PreparationNKS003ER
Adjust the tire pressure to the specified value.
See that there is no load in the vehicle.
Coolant, engine oil filled up to correct level and full fuel tank.
Shift the gear into “P” position and release the parking brake.
Clean the ICC sensor with a soft cloth.
Outline of Adjustment ProcedureNKS003ES
1. Set up the ICC target board [KV99110100 (J-45718)].
2. Adjust the sensor following the procedure on CONSULT-II. (Turn manually the screw for up-down position adjustment. ICC sensor automatically adjust the right-left position.)
Setting the ICC Target BoardNKS003ET
Accurate ICC target board setting is required for the laser beam aiming adjustment.
CAUTION:
ICC system does not function normally if laser beam aiming is not accurate.
ADJUSTING HEIGHT OF THE TARGET
1. Attach a triangle scale at the center.

Inspections Before Trouble DiagnosisNCS001BH
A/T CHECK
A/T Fluid Leakage and A/T Fluid Level Check
Check for A/T fluid leakage and check the A/T fluid level. Refer to AT- 1 3 , "Checking A/T Fluid" .
A/T Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the A/T fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle so that the A/ T fluid temperature is 50 to 80 °C (122 to 176 °F). Check the
amount of ATF. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D” position.
5. While holding down the foot brake, gradually press down the accelerator pedal.
6. Quickly read off the stall speed, then quickly remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
CAUTION:
Do not hold down the accelerator pedal for more than 5 sec-
onds during this test.
7. Move the selector lever to the “N” position.
Fluid condition Conceivable Cause Required Operation
Varnished (viscous
varnish state) Clutch, brake
scorched Replace the ATF and check the A/T
main unit and the vehicle for mal-
functions (wire harnesses, cooler
pipes, etc.)
Milky white or
cloudy Water in the fluid
Replace the ATF and check for
places where water is getting in.
Large amount of
metal powder mixed
in Unusual wear of
sliding parts within
A/T Replace the ATF and check for
improper operation of the A/T.

4. CHECK “N” POSITION FUNCTIONS
1. Start engine.
2. Move selector lever to “N” position.
3. Disengage the parking brake.
Does vehicle move forward or backward?
YES >> Enter a check mark at AT- 1 9 2 , "In “N” Position, Vehicle Moves" on the AT- 4 8 , "DIAGNOSTIC
WORKSHEET" , then continue the road test.
NO >> GO TO 5.
5. CHECK SHIFT SHOCK
1. Engage the brake.
2. Move selector lever to “D” position.
When the transmission is shifted from
“N” to “D”, is there an excessive shock?
YES >> Enter a check mark at AT- 1 9 3 , "Large Shock (“N” to “D” Position)" on the AT- 4 8 , "DIAGNOSTIC
WORKSHEET" , then continue the road test.
NO >> GO TO 6.
6. CHECK “R” POSITION FUNCTIONS
1. Engage the brake.
2. Move selector lever to “R” position.
3. Disengage the brake for 4 to 5 seconds.
Does the vehicle creep backward?
YES >> GO TO 7.
NO >> Enter a check mark at AT- 1 9 6 , "
Vehicle Does Not Creep Backward in “R” Position" on the AT- 4 8 ,
"DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET" , then continue the road test.
7. CHECK “D” POSITION FUNCTIONS
Inspect whether the vehicle creep forward when the A/T is put into the “D” position.
Does the vehicle creep forward in the
“D” position?
YES >> Go to AT- 5 8 , "Cruise Test - Part 1" , AT- 6 0 , "Cruise Test - Part 2" , and AT- 6 1 , "Cruise Test - Part
3" .
NO >> Enter a check mark at AT- 1 9 9 , "
Vehicle Does Not Creep Forward in “D” Position" on the AT- 4 8 ,
"DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET" , then continue the road test.
Cruise Test - Part 1NCS001BK
1. CHECK STARTING OUT FROM D1
1. Drive the vehicle for about 10 minutes to warm up the engine oil and ATF. Appropriate temperature for the ATF: 50 to 80 °C (122 to 176 °F)
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
3. Move selector lever to “P” position.
4. Start the engine.
5. Move selector lever to “D” position.
6. Press the accelerator pedal about half-way down to accelerate the vehicle.
With CONSULT-II
Read the gear positions. Refer to AT- 9 5 , "
DATA MONITOR MODE" .
Starts from D1?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Enter a check mark at AT- 2 0 1 , "
Vehicle Cannot Be Started From D1" on the AT- 4 8 , "DIAGNOS-
TIC WORKSHEET" , then continue the road test.
