On-board InspectionEFS004W2
LEVEL CHECK

Make sure the fluid level in reservoir tank is within the standard
(between MAX and MIN lines).

Visually check around reservoir tank for fluid leaks.

If fluid level is excessively low, check brake system for leaks.

If brake warning lamp remains illuminated after parking lever is
released, check brake system for fluid leakage.
Drain and RefillEFS004W3
CAUTION:

Refill with new brake fluid. Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

Do not let brake fluid splash on the painted surfaces of the body. This might damage the paint, so
when splashing it, immediately wipe off the area and wash away with water.

Before servicing, disconnect actuator connector or battery negative cable.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to each bleed valve.
2. Depress brake pedal, loosen each bleed valve, and gradually remove brake fluid.
3. Make sure there is no foreign material in reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
4. Rest foot on brake pedal. Loosen bleed valve. Slowly depress pedal until it stops. Tighten bleed valve. Release brake pedal.
Repeat this process a few times, then pause to add new brake
fluid to master cylinder. Continue until new brake fluid flows out.
Bleed air from brake system. Refer to BR-11, "
Bleeding Brake
System" .

BASIC SERVICE PROCEDURE
2006 QX56
Accelerator Pedal Released Position LearningUBS00KZY
DESCRIPTION
Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning is an operation to learn the fully released position of the accel-
erator pedal by monitoring the accelerator pedal position sensor output signal. It must be performed each time
harness connector of accelerator pedal position sensor or ECM is disconnected.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Make sure that accelerator pedal is fully released.
2. Turn ignition switch ON and wait at least 2 seconds.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
4. Turn ignition switch ON and wait at least 2 seconds.
5. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
Throttle Valve Closed Position LearningUBS00KZZ
DESCRIPTION
Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning is an operation to learn the fully closed position of the throttle valve by
monitoring the throttle position sensor output signal. It must be performed each time harness connector of
electric throttle control actuator or ECM is disconnected.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Make sure that accelerator pedal is fully released.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF wait at least 10 seconds.Make sure that throttle valve moves during above 10 seconds by confirming the operating sound.
Idle Air Volume LearningUBS00L00
DESCRIPTION
Idle Air Volume Learning is an operation to learn the idle air volume that keeps each engine within the specific
range. It must be performed under any of the following conditions:

Each time electric throttle control actuator or ECM is replaced.

Idle speed or ignition timing is out of specification.
PREPARATION
Before performing Idle Air Volume Learning, make sure that all of the following conditions are satisfied.
Learning will be cancelled if any of the following conditions are missed for even a moment.

Battery voltage: More than 12.9V (At idle)

Engine coolant temperature: 70 - 100 °C (158 - 212 °F)

Park/Neutral position (PNP) switch: ON

Electric load switch: OFF
(Air conditioner, headlamp, rear window defogger)
On vehicles equipped with daytime light systems, if the parking brake is applied before the engine
is start the headlamp will not be illuminated.

Steering wheel: Neutral (Straight-ahead position)

Vehicle speed: Stopped

Transmission: Warmed-up
–With CONSULT-II: Drive vehicle until “ATF TEMP SE 1 ” in “DATA MONITOR” mode of “A/T” system indi-
cates less than 0.9V.
–Without CONSULT-II: Drive vehicle for 10 minutes.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
With CONSULT-II
1. Perform EC-78, "Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning" .
2. Perform EC-78, "
Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning" .
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Check that all items listed under the topic PREPARATION (previously mentioned) are in good order.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
Harness Indication

Letter designations next to test meter probe indicate harness
(connector) wire color.

Connector numbers in a single circle M33 indicate harness con-
nectors.
Component Indication
Connector numbers in a double circle F211 indicate component connectors.
Switch Positions
Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the “normal” condition.
A vehicle is in the “normal” condition when:

ignition switch is “OFF”,

doors, hood and trunk lid/back door are closed,

pedals are not depressed, and

parking brake is released.
Detectable Lines and Non-Detectable Lines
In some wiring diagrams, two kinds of lines, representing wires, with different weight are used.
