On-Board InspectionNFS000LU
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 leakage.

If fluid 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.
Drain and RefillNFS000LV
CAUTION:

Refill with new brake fluid “DOT3”.

Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it way cause paint damage. If brake fluid is
splashed on painted surfaces of body, immediately wipe it off and them wash it away with water
immediately.

Before working, disconnect connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
negative terminal.
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.
5. Bleed Air. Refer to BR-10, "
Bleeding Brake System" .

Basic InspectionNFS000NI
BRAKE FLUID AMOUNT, LEAKS, AND BRAKE PADS INSPECTION
1. Check fluid level in the brake reservoir tank. If fluid level is low, refill brake fluid.
2. Check brake piping and around ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) for leaks. If there is leaking or oozing fluid, check the following items.

If ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connection is loose, tighten piping to the specified torque
and re-perform the leak inspection to make sure there are no leaks.

If there is damage to the connection flare nut or ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) screw,
replace the damaged part and re-perform the leak inspection to make sure there are no leaks.

When there is fluid leaking or oozing from a part other than ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit)
connection, if fluid is just oozing out, use a clean cloth to wipe off the oozing fluid and re-check for
leaks. If fluid is still oozing out, replace the damaged part.

When there is fluid leaking or oozing at ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), if fluid is just oozing
out, use a clean cloth to wipe off oozing fluid and re-check for leaks. If fluid is still oozing out, replace
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) body.
CAUTION:
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) body can not be disassembled.
3. Check brake pad degree of wear. Refer to BR-19, "
PAD WEAR INSPECTION" in “Front Disc Brake” and
BR-25, "
PAD WEAR INSPECTION" in “Rear Disc Brake”
POWER SYSTEM TERMINAL LOOSENESS AND BATTERY INSPECTION
Make sure battery positive cable, negative cable and ground connection are not loose. If looseness is
detected, tighten the cables. In addition, check the battery voltage to make sure it has not dropped and alter-
nator is normal.
ABS WARNING LAMP, VDC OFF INDICATOR LAMP, SLIP INDICATOR LAMP AND BRAKE
WARNING LAMP INSPECTION
× : ON –: OFF
Note 1:Brake warning lamp will turn on in case of operating parking brake (switch turned on) or of actuating brake fluid level switch
(brake fluid is insufficient).
Note 2:After starting engine, turn OFF.
1. Make sure ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp (when VDC OFF switch is OFF), and SLIP indica- tor lamp turn on approximately 2 second, and brake warning lamp turns on when ignition switch is turned
ON. If they do not, check VDC OFF indicator lamp and then VDC OFF switch. Refer to BRC-52, "
VDC
OFF SWITCH" . Check CAN communications. Refer to “CAN Communication Inspection”. If there are no
errors with VDC OFF switch and CAN communication system, check combination meter. Refer to DI-5,
"COMBINATION METERS" .
2. Make sure ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, SLIP indicator lamp turn off approximately 2 sec- ond after turn ignition switch ON, and brake warning lamp turns off after engine starts. If lamps do not turn
off, perform self-diagnosis.

3. With engine running, make sure VDC OFF indicator lamp turns on and off when VDC OFF switch is
turned ON and OFF. If indicator lamp status does not correspond to switch operation, check the VDC OFF
switch system. Refer to BRC-52, "
VDC OFF SWITCH" .
4. Make sure ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp turn off 2 seconds after engine is started. If ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp have not turned
off 10 seconds after engine has been started, perform self-diagnosis of ABS actuator and electric unit
(control unit).
5. After performing the self-diagnosis, be sure to erase the error memory. Refer to BRC-25, "
Self-Diagnosis"
.
NOTE:
Brake warning lamp turns on when parking brake is operated (switch on) and brake fluid level switch is acti-
vated (leak of brake fluid).

UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP
Revision: 2006 July 2007 FX35/FX45
UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMPPFP:27760
System DescriptionNKS00300

For the unified meter and A/C amp., the signal required for controlling the combination meter are inte-
grated in the A/C auto amp.

The unified meter and A/C amp. corresponds to a CONSULT-II function (self-diagnosis results, CAN diag-
nosis support monitor, data monitor).
COMBINATION METER CONTROL FUNCTION

Unified meter and A/C amp. receives necessary information for combination meter from each unit by CAN
communication.

Unified meter and A/C amp. transmits a signals with communication line (TX, RX) between unified meter
and A/C amp. and combination meter.
Input/output signals between unified meter and A/C amp. and combination meter.
NOTE:
Combination meter performs fail-safe operation when unified meter and A/C amp. communication is malfunctioning. Refer to DI-8,
"FAIL-SAFE" . Unit Input Output
