With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

to CPU located in IPDM E/R,

through 15A fuse [No. 1, located in fuse block (J/B)]

to BCM terminal 38.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in fuse block (J/B)]

to BCM terminal 11.
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminal 52

through grounds M16 and M70,

to IPDM E/R terminals 38 and 51

through grounds E22 and E43.
OPERATION BY LIGHTING SWITCH
With the lighting switch in the 1ST or 2ND position (or if the auto light system is activated), the BCM receives
input signal requesting the parking, license plate and tail lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communi-
cated to the IPDM E/R across the CAN communication lines. The CPU located in the IPDM E/R controls the
tail lamp relay coil, which when energized, directs power

through IPDM E/R terminal 21

to front combination lamp LH and RH terminals 5 (parking)

to front combination lamp LH and RH terminals 7 (side marker)

to rear combination lamp LH and RH terminals 1 (tail and side marker)

to license plate lamp LH and RH terminals 1.
Ground is supplied at all times

to front combination lamp LH and RH terminals 1 (parking and side marker)

through grounds E22 and E43,

to rear combination lamp LH and RH terminals 4 (tail and side marker)

through grounds B5, B40 and B131.

to license plate lamp LH and RH terminals 2

through grounds B402 and B405.
With power and ground supplied, the parking, license plate and tail lamps illuminate.
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Refer toBCS-3, "COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION" .
EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting switch) is in the 1ST (or 2ND) position, and ignition switch is turned
from ON or ACC to OFF, battery saver control feature is activated.
Under this condition, parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps remain illuminated for 5 minutes, then
the parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps are turned off.
Exterior lamp battery saver control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II.
CAN Communication System DescriptionNKS003SJ
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN Communication UnitNKS003SK

(2) If operating mainly in dusty conditions, more frequent maintenance may be required.
(3) Maintenance-free item. For service procedures, refer to FL section.
(4) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, replace every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months.
(5) If valve noise increases, inspect valve clearance.
* Maintenance items and intervals with “*” are recommended by INFINITI for reliable vehicle operation. The owner need not perform
such maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or manufacturer recall liability. Other maintenance items and intervals are
required.
CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTENANCE
Abbreviations: R = Replace. I = Inspect. Correct or replace if necessary.
NOTE:
(1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) fluid (A/T, trans-
fer)/oil at every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months. Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic J
ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and automatic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmis-
sion, which is not covered by the INFINITI new vehicle limited warranty.
(2) Refer to “Tire rotation” under the “GENERAL MAINTENANCE” heading earlier in this section.MAINTENANCE OPERATIONMAINTENANCE INTERVAL
