Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral PositionNFS000Q4
In case of doing work that applies to the list below, make sure to adjust neutral position of steering angle sen-
sor before running vehicle.
: Required
–: Not required
CAUTION:
To adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor, make sure to use CONSULT-II.
(Adjustment cannot be done without CONSULT-II.)
1. Stop vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector on vehicle.
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.
3. Turn ignition switch ON and touch the CONSULT-II screen in the order of “ABS”, “WORK SUPPORT” and
“ST ANG SEN ADJUSTMENT”.
4. Touch “START”.
CAUTION:
Do not touch steering wheel while adjusting steering angle
sensor.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, touch “END”. (After approxi-
mately 60 seconds, it ends automatically.)
6. Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON again.
CAUTION:
Be sure to perform above operation.
7. Run vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position, then
stop.
8. Select “DATA MONITOR”, “ECU INPUT SIGNALS”, and “STR ANGLE SIG” on CONSULT-II screen. Then
make sure “STR ANGLE SIG” is within 0
2.5. If value is more than specification, repeat steps 1 to 7.
9. Erase memory of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and ECM. ABS actuator and electric unit
(control unit): Refer to BRC-23, "
ERASE MEMORY" . ECM: Refer to EC-100, "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS"
(VQ35DE), EC-811, "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" (VK45DE).
10. Turn ignition switch OFF.

malfunctioning. At the same time, the VDC/TCS/ABS will be put in one of the following states by the fail-safe
function.
When the ABS malfunctions, only the EBD operates. The condition is the same as that of models without
VDC/TCS/ABS.
NOTE:
In step 1 shown above, self-diagnosis is performed when ignition switch is turned ON and when vehicle
initially starts. ABS self-diagnosis sound may be heard as usual.
When the EBD malfunctions, the EBD and ABS will not operate. The condition is the same as that of mod-
els without VDC/TCS/ABS and EBD.
VDC / TCS
In case of VDC/TCS system malfunction, the VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp or only VDC
OFF indicator lamp are turned on, and the condition of the vehicle is the same as the condition of vehicles
without VDC/TCS equipment. In case of electrical malfunction with the VDC/TCS system, the ABS control
continues to operate normally even though VDC/TCS does not operate.
CAUTION:
If the Fail-Safe function is activated, then perform self-diagnosis for VDC/TCS/ABS control system.

Self-DiagnosisNFS000QG
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector.
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which performs CAN communication.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute.
5. After stopping vehicle, with the engine running, touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”, “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 “SELECT SYSTEM” screen. In this case,
repeat the operation from step 1.
6. The self-diagnostic results are displayed. (Touch “PRINT” to print out self-diagnostic results, if necessary.)
Check ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp if “NO FAILURE” is dis-
played. Refer to BRC-53, "
Inspection 19: Warning Lamp and Indicator Lamp Circuit" .
7. Perform the appropriate inspection from display item list, and repair or replace the malfunctioning compo-
nent.Refer to BRC-24, "
DISPLAY ITEM LIST" .
8. Start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute.
CAUTION:
When the wheel sensor malfunctions, after inspecting the wheel sensor system, the ABS warning
lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and brake warning lamp will not turn off even
when the system is normal unless the vehicle is driving at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or
more for approximately 1 minute.
ERASE MEMORY
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Start engine and touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”, “ABS”, “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”, “ERASE
MEMORY” in order on the CONSULT-II screen to erase the diagnostic memory.
If “ABS” is not indicated, go to GI-40, "
CONSULT-II Data Link Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
CAUTION:
If the diagnostic memory is not erased, re-perform 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, SLIP indicator lamp and brake warning lamp
turn off.
NOTE:
Brake warning lamp will turn on in case of parking brake operation (when switch is ON) or of brake fluid
level switch operation (when brake fluid is insufficient).
VDC OFF switch should not stay "ON" position.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
Note 1: After completing repairs of shorted sensor circuit, when ignition switch is turned ON, ABS warning lamp turns on. Make sure that
ABS warning lamp turns off while driving vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute according to self-diagnosis
procedure. In addition, if wheel sensor 2 is displayed for wheels, check wheel sensor circuit and also check control unit power voltage.
Note 2: When malfunctions are detected in several systems, including CAN communication circuit [U1000], troubleshoot CAN communi-
cation circuit. Refer to BRC-51, "

Note 1: Confirm tire pressure is normal.
Note 2: Only AWD model.
Note 3: A brief moment of ON/OFF condition occurs every 20 seconds after ignition switch turned ON. This is not malfunction because it
is an operation for checking.
Note 4: On and off timing for warning lamp and indicator lanp.Refer to BRC-33, "
ON and OFF Timing for Warning Lamp and Indicator
Lamp" .
Active TestNFS000QI
CAUTION:
Do not perform active test while driving vehicle.
Make sure to completely bleed air from brake system.
The active test cannot be performed with the ABS warning lamp, VDC indicator lamp, SLIP indica-
tor lamp and brake warning lamp are on.
ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and brake warning lamp are on
during active test.
Erase memory of ICC system after implementing active test. Refer to ACS-34, "Self-Diagnostic
Function" .
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”, “ABS”, “ACTIVE TEST” in order on the CONSULT-II screen.
CAUTION:
When “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)” is touched immediately after starting engine or turning on
ignition switch, “ABS” might not be displayed in the "SELECT SYSTEM" screen. In this case,
repeat the operation from step 1.
2. Touch “SELECT TEST ITEM” is displayed.
3. Touch necessary test item.
4. While “MAIN SIGNALS” indication is inverted, touch “START”.
5. “ACTIVE TEST” screen will be displayed so perform the following test.
