2006 INFINITI QX56 turn signal

ATC-116
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The front air control controls compressor operation based on ambient and intake temperature and a signal
from ECM.
Low Temperature Protection Control
The front air control will turn the compressor ON or OFF as determined by a signal detected by the intake sen-
sor and the ambient sensor.
When intake air temperature is higher than the preset value, the compressor turns ON. The compressor turns
OFF when intake air temperature is lower than the preset value. That preset value is dependent on the ambi-
ent temperature, refer to the following table.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR MAGNET CLUTCH
SYMPTOM: Magnet clutch does not engage when A/C switch is ON.
1. CHECK INTAKE AND AMBIENT SENSOR CIRCUITS

AV Switch Self-Diagnosis FunctionEKS00BIF
It can check ON/OFF operation of each switch in the AV switch and diagnose the input signals from the steer-
ing switch.
STARTING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch from OFF to ACC.
2. Within 10 seconds press and hold the switches “MEMORY 1”
and “MEMORY 6 ” simultaneously for 3 seconds.
Then the self-diagnosis operates. A single beep indicates self-
diagnosis mode is active.
3. Press each switch and listen for beep. NOTE:
CD player LOAD and EJECT buttons are not included in this test
and will not beep when pressed.
EXITING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
Turn ignition switch OFF. Then the self-diagnosis ends.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION

It can check for continuity of the switches by sounding the beep when each AV switch and steering switch
is pressed.

It can check for continuity of harness between AV switch and steering switch.

NOTE:
1. The following noise results from variations in field strength, such as fading noise and multi-path noise, or
external noise from trains and other sources. It is not a malfunction.

Fading noise: This noise occurs because of variations in the field strength in a narrow range due to moun-
tains or buildings blocking the signal.

Multi-path noise: This noise results from the waves sent directly from the broadcast station arriving at the
antenna at a different time from the waves which reflect off mountains or buildings.
FOR CD ONLY
FOR SATELLITE RADIO TUNER (FACTORY INSTALLED) ONLY
NOTE:
Pressing the SAT button, the display unit will display `NO SAT' when the following conditions exist:

Loss of power to the satellite radio tuner (factory installed)

Open or short in the REQ1, TXD, or RXD circuits.
If the satellite antenna is disconnected or inoperative, the display unit will display ANTENNA.
Noise InspectionEKS00BIH
The vehicle itself can be a source of noise if noise prevention parts or electrical equipment is malfunctioning.
Check if noise is caused and/or changed by engine speed, ignition switch turned to each position, and opera-
tion of each piece of electrical equipment, and determine the cause.
NOTE:
The source of the noise can be found easily by listening to the noise while removing the fuses of electrical
components, one by one.
