POWER GENERATION VOLTAGE VARIABLE CONTROL SYSTEM
Power generation voltage variable control system that controls the power generation voltage of the alternator
has been adopted. By performing the power generation voltage variable control, the engine load due to the
power generation of the alternator is reduced and fuel consumption is decreased.
Operation Description
The battery current sensor detects the charging/discharging current of the battery. ECM judges the battery
condition based on this signal.
ECM judges whether to perform the power generation voltage variable control according to the battery
condition.
When performing the power generation voltage variable control, ECM calculates the target power genera-
tion voltage according to the battery condition and sends the calculated value as the power generation
command value to IPDM E/R.
IPDM E/R converts the received power generation command value into the power generation command
signal (PWM signal) and sends it to the IC regulator.
The IC regulator controls the power generation voltage by the target power generation voltage based on
the received power generation command signal.
When there is no power generation command signal, the alternator performs the normal power generation
according to the characteristic of the IC regulator.
NOTE:
When any malfunction is detected in the power generation voltage variable control system, the power genera-
tion is performed according to the characteristic of the IC regulator of the alternator.
Main Component Part
BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR
Battery current sensor (1) is installed to the battery cable at the
negative terminal, and it detects the charging/discharging cur-
rent of the battery and sends the voltage signal to ECM accord-
ing to the current value.

Power Generation Voltage Variable Control System Operation InspectionNKS003NQ
CAUTION:
For this model, the battery current sensor that is installed to the battery cable at the negative ter-
minal measures the charging/discharging current of the battery, and performs various controls. If
the electrical component or the ground wire is connected directly to the battery terminal, the cur-
rent other than that being measured with the battery current sensor is charging to or discharging
from the battery. This condition causes the malfunction of the control, and then the battery dis-
charge may occur. Never connect the electrical component or the ground wire directly to the bat-
tery terminal.
When performing this inspection, always use the charged battery that completed the battery
inspection. (When the charging rate of the battery is low, the response speed of the voltage
change will become slow. This is a cause of an incorrect inspection.)
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. CHECK ECM (CONSULT-II)
Perform ECM self-diagnosis with CONSULT-II. Refer to EC-133, "
CONSULT-II Function (ENGINE)"
(VQ35DE) or EC-846, "CONSULT-II Function (ENGINE)" (VK45DE).

2. The selector lever is in “P” or “N” position and all of the electric
loads and A/C, etc. are turned OFF.
3. Select “ALTERNATOR DUTY” at “ACTIVE TEST” of “ENGINE”,
and then check the value of “BATTERY VOLT” monitor when
DUTY value of “ALTERNATOR DUTY” is set to 40.0 %.
4. Check the value of “BATTERY VOLT” monitor when DUTY value
of “ALTERNATOR DUTY” is set to 80.0%.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NIS0025I
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. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WAR NING :
To 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.
Improper 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.
Do 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.
Service NoticeNIS0025J
When removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding onto the vehicle body to prevent
scratches.
Handle trim, molding, instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to oil or
damage them.
Apply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts.
When applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts.
When replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, members, etc.), be sure to take rust pre-
vention measures.
Precautions for WorkNIS0025K
When removing or disassembling each component, be careful not to damage or deform it. If a component
may be subject to interference, be sure to protect it with a shop cloth.
When removing (disengaging) components with a screwdriver or similar tool, be sure to wrap the compo-
nent with a shop cloth or vinyl tape to protect it.
Protect the removed parts with a shop cloth and keep them.
Replace a deformed or damaged clip.
If a part is specified as a non-reusable part, always replace it with new one.
Be sure to tighten bolts and nuts securely to the specified torque.
After re-installation is completed, be sure to check that each part works normally.
Follow the steps below to clean components.
–Water soluble foul: Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water, and wring the water out of the cloth to wipe the
fouled area.
Then rub with a soft and dry cloth.
–Oily foul: Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water with mild detergent (concentration: within 2 to 3%), and wipe
the fouled area.
Then dip a cloth into fresh water, and wring the water out of the cloth to wipe the detergent off. Then rub
with a soft and dry cloth.
Do not use organic solvent such as thinner, benzene, alcohol, and gasoline.
For genuine leather seats, use a genuine leather seat cleaner.
