DTC B2557 VEHICLE SPEEDNIS001YU
DIAGNOSIS DESCRIPTION
B2557 vehicle speed signal compares the vehicle speed input from the unified meter and A/C amp. and ABS
via CAN communication and the vehicle signal (8 pulses) from the unified meter and A/C amp. If there is the
difference between each vehicle speed input, it judges that it is the malfunction and displays the DTC (Diag-
nostic Trouble Code).

tion direction.
Removal and Installation of Front DoorNIS001ZA
CAUTION:
When removing and installing the front door assembly, support the door with a jack and cloth to
protect the door and body.
When removing and installing front door assembly, be sure to carry out the fitting adjustment.
Refer to BL-190, "
Fitting Adjustment" .
After installing, apply touch-up paint (the body color) onto the head of the hinge mounting nuts.
Check the hinge rotating part for poor lubrication. If necessary, apply “body grease”.
Operate with two workers, because of its heavy weight.
Check rear door open/close operation after installation.
REMOVAL
1. Pull the lever and disconnect the door harness connector while
removing tabs of door harness connector.
2. Remove the mounting bolts of the check link on the vehicle.

Corrosion ProtectionNIS0020Z
DESCRIPTION
To provide improved corrosion prevention, the following anti-corrosive measures have been implemented in
NISSAN production plants. When repairing or replacing body panels, it is necessary to use the same anti-cor-
rosive measures.
Anti-corrosive Precoated Steel (Galvannealed Steel)
To improve repairability and corrosion resistance, a new type of anti-
corrosive precoated steel sheet has been adopted replacing conven-
tional zinc-coated steel sheet.
Galvannealed steel is electroplated and heated to form Zinc-iron
alloy, which provides excellent and long term corrosion resistance
with cationic electrodeposition primer.
Nissan Genuine Service Parts are fabricated from galvannealed steel. Therefore, it is recommended that
GENUINE NISSAN PARTS or equivalent be used for panel replacement to maintain the anti-corrosive perfor-
mance built into the vehicle at the factory.
Phosphate Coating Treatment and Cationic Electrodeposition Primer
A phosphate coating treatment and a cationic electrodeposition primer, which provide excellent corrosion pro-
tection, are employed on all body components.
CAUTION:
Confine paint removal during welding operations to an absolute
minimum.
Nissan Genuine Service Parts are also treated in the same manner. Therefore, it is recommended that GENU-
INE NISSAN PARTS or equivalent be used for panel replacement to maintain anti-corrosive performance built
into the vehicle at the factory.

Handling Precautions for PlasticsNIS00213
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR PLASTICS
1. When repairing and painting a portion of the body adjacent to plastic parts, consider their characteristics
(influence of heat and solvent) and remove them if necessary or take suitable measures to protect them.
2. Plastic parts should be repaired and painted using methods suiting the materials
characteristics.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NFS000ON
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.
Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top CoverNFS000OO
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precautions for Brake SystemNFS000OP
Clean dust on front brake and rear brake with a vacuum dust collector. Do not blow with compressed air.
Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”.
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed
on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
Use clean brake fluid, to clean or wash all parts of master cylinder and disc brake caliper, etc.
Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.
Use flare nut torque wrench when installing brake tube.
When installing brake tube and hose, be sure to check torque.
Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect con-
nectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
cable from the negative terminal.
Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing
rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low
mileage. Refer to BR-28, "
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCE-
DURE" (front disc brake), BR-34, "BRAKE BURNISHING PRO-
CEDURE" (rear disc brake).
WAR NING :
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with a dust collector.

BRAKE FLUIDPFP:KN100
On-Board Inspection NFS000OU
CHECKING BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
Make sure that a brake fluid level in reservoir tank is within the
standard (between MAX and MIN lines).
Visually check around reservoir tank for fluid leakage.
If the level is excessively low, check brake system for leakage.
Release parking brake pedal and see if brake warning lamp
goes off. If not, check brake system for fluid leakage.
Checking Brake LineNFS000OV
CAUTION:
If leakage occurs around joints, retighten or, if necessary, replace damaged parts.
1. Check brake line (tubes and hoses) for cracks, deterioration or other damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
2. Check for oil leakage by fully depressing brake pedal while
engine is running.
Drain and RefillNFS000OW
CAUTION:
Refill with new brake fluid “DOT 3”.
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is
splashed on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
Before working, disconnect connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
cable from the negative terminal.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to bleed valve.
2. Depress brake pedal, loosen bleed valve, and gradually remove
brake fluid.

3. Make sure there is no foreign material in the reservoir tank, and
refill with new brake fluid.
4. Loosen bleed valve, depress brake pedal slowly to full stroke
and then release it. Repeat the procedure every 2 or 3 seconds
until the new brake fluid comes out, then close the bleed valve
while depressing the pedal. Repeat the same work for each
wheel.
5. Bleed air. Refer to BR-11, "
Bleeding Brake System" .
Bleeding Brake System NFS000OX
CAUTION:
While bleeding, pay attention to master cylinder fluid level.
Before working, disconnect connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
cable from the negative terminal.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to rear right brake caliper bleed valve.
2. Fully depress brake pedal 4 or 5 times.
3. With brake pedal depressed, loosen bleed valve to bleed air in brake line, and then tighten it immediately.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all of the air is out of the brake line.
5. Tighten the bleed valve to the specified torque. Refer to front disc brake: BR-23, "
Components" , rear disc
brake: BR-29, "
Components" .
6. From step 1 to 5, with master cylinder reservoir tank filled at least half way, bleed air from brake hydraulic
line bleed valves in the following order:
