through 10A fuse [No.21, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
to automatic drive positioner control unit terminal 34 and
to driver seat control unit terminal 40.
Ground is supplied
to automatic drive positioner control unit terminals 40 and 48.
through body grounds M16 and M70.
to driver seat control unit terminals 32 and 48.
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131.
to door mirror remote control switch terminal 13
through body grounds M16 and M70.
REVERSE INTERLOCK DOOR MIRROR SYSTEM OPERATION
When the ignition switch is in ON position, A/T control device into R position. Then TCM (in A/T assembly)
detects it and sends the A/T shift position signal to the driver seat control unit via DATA LINE (CAN H,
CAN L).
When selecting either left and right changeover switch, the automatic drive position control unit judges
which door mirror is selected according to the voltage of terminals 2 and 18. And then, it sends the signal
to driver seat control unit via communication signal.
When the driver seat control unit receives the A/T shift position signal and changeover switch signal, it
sends the operation signal to the automatic drive positioner control unit using the communication signal so
that the each mirror sensor voltage stays in a specified value.
Door mirror (RH) selected
Supply the power from terminals 14, 15 and 30 to door mirror (RH) terminals 5, 6 and 7 so that the voltage
of terminals 5 and 21 stays in a specified value. Then, adjust the mirror angle.
Door mirror (LH) selected
Supply the power from terminals 16, 31 and 32 to door mirror (LH) terminals 5, 6 and 7 do that the voltage
of terminals 6 and 22 is the specified value. Then, adjust the mirror angle.
CAN Communication System DescriptionNIS00232
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex 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 links 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.
CAN Communication UnitNIS00233

EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
BCM activates the exterior lamp battery saver control function and turns off the exterior lamps to prevent bat-
tery from over discharge when the combination switch (lighting switch) is in 1ST or 2ND position and/or the
front fog lamp switch ON and the door lock operation is performed by keyless entry system.

(1) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, inspect every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or 12 months. Replace the drive belts if found
damaged or if the auto belt tensioner reading (only for VK45DE engine) reaches the maximum limit.
(2) If operating mainly in dusty conditions, more frequent maintenance may be required.
(3) Maintenance-free item. For service procedures, refer to FL section.
(4) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, replace every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months.
(5) If valve noise increases, inspect valve clearance.
* Maintenance items and intervals with “*” are recommended by INFINITI for reliable vehicle operation. The owner need not perform
such maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or manufacturer recall liability. Other maintenance items and intervals are

NOTE:
(1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) fluid (A/T, trans-
fer)/oil at every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months. Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic J
ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and automatic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmis-
sion, which is not covered by the INFINITI new vehicle limited warranty.
(2) Refer to “Tire rotation” under the “GENERAL MAINTENANCE” heading earlier in this section.
