2. Drive vehicle and check brake operation.
NOTE:
• Stopping distance may be longer than vehicles without ABS when road condition is slippery.
• Driving the vehicle with the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) disconnected may induce DTCs
in electrical control units using CAN communication. After the inspection, clear all DTCs. Refer to LAN-
7.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> Perform Basic Inspection. Refer to BRC-22, "
Basic Inspection".
4.CHECK WHEEL SENSORS
Check the following.
• Wheel sensor mounting for looseness
• Wheel sensors for physical damage
• Wheel sensor connectors for terminal damage or loose connections
OK or NG
OK >> Check ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector terminals for deformation, discon-
nection, looseness or damage. Reconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) harness
connector. Then retest.
NG >> Repair or replace as necessary.
Long Stopping DistanceINFOID:0000000003532804
INSPECTION PROCEDURE

SERVICE INFORMATION
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000003531562
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SRS section.
• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000003531563
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
• After removing the bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface and
remove the old liquid gasket sealing using Tool.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the mating surfaces.
• Tap the seal cutter to insert it.
• In areas where the Tool is difficult to use, lightly tap to slide it.
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove the old liquid gasket adhering to the gasket application
surface and the mating surface using suitable tool.
• Remove the liquid gasket completely from the groove of the
liquid gasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering
moisture, grease and foreign material.Tool number : KV10111100 (J-37228)

ENGINE COOLANT
InspectionINFOID:0000000003531569
LEVEL CHECK
• Check if the engine coolant reservoir tank level is within MIN to
MAX level when engine is cool.
• Adjust engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator or reservoir cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from
high-pressure engine coolant escaping from the radiator or reservoir.
• To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system at the
reservoir filler neck using suitable tool and Tool.
CAUTION:
Higher pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.
NOTE:
In case that engine coolant decreases, replenish cooling system
with engine coolant.
• If any concerns are found, repair or replace damaged parts.
CHECKING RESERVOIR CAP
• Check reservoir cap relief pressure using suitable tool and Tool.
NOTE:
Apply engine coolant to the cap seal.
• Replace the reservoir cap if there is any damage in the negative-
pressure valve, or if the open-valve pressure is outside of the limit.
CHECKING RADIATOR CAP
Inspect the radiator cap.
NOTE:
Thoroughly wipe out the radiator filler neck to remove any waxy residue or foreign material.
• Replace the cap if the metal plunger cannot be seen around the edge of the black rubber gasket.
• Replace the cap if deposits of waxy residue or other foreign material are on the black rubber gasket or the
metal retainer.
Changing Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000003531570
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, never change the coolant when the engine is hot.

WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure
engine coolant escaping from the radiator.
REMOVAL
CAUTION:
Perform when the engine is cold.
1. Remove engine room cover. Refer to EM-12, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Drain engine coolant from the radiator. Refer to CO-9, "
Changing Engine Coolant".
3. Remove air cleaner and air duct assembly. Refer to EM-15, "
Removal and Installation".
4. Disconnect A/T fluid cooler hoses.
• Install blind plug to avoid leakage of A/T fluid.
5. Disconnect radiator upper and lower hoses from radiator.
CAUTION:
Do not allow coolant to contact drive belts.
