Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral PositionINFOID:0000000003532809
After removing/installing or replacing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), steering angle sensor, steer-
ing and suspension components which affect wheel alignment or after adjusting wheel alignment, be sure to
adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor before running vehicle.
NOTE:
Adjustment of steering angle sensor neutral position requires CONSULT-II.
1. Stop vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data
link connector on vehicle, and turn ignition switch ON (do not
start engine).
3. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”, “ABS”, “WORK SUP-
PORT” and “ST ANGLE SENSOR ADJUSTMENT” on CON-
SULT-II screen in this order.
4. Touch “START”.
CAUTION:
Do not touch steering wheel while adjusting steering angle
sensor.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, touch “END”. (After approxi-
mately 60 seconds, it ends automatically.)
6. Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON again.
7. Run vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position, then
stop.
8. Select “DATA MONITOR”, “SELECTION FROM MENU”, and
“STR ANGLE SIG” on CONSULT-II screen. Then check that
“STR ANGLE SIG” is within 0±3.5 deg. If value is more than specification, repeat steps 1 to 5.
9. Erase memory of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and ECM.
10. Turn ignition switch to OFF.
Calibration of Decel G SensorINFOID:0000000003532810
After removing/installing or replacing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), yaw rate/side/decel G sen-
sor, steering and suspension components which affect wheel alignment or after adjusting wheel alignment, be
sure to calibrate the decel G sensor before running vehicle.
NOTE:
Calibration of decel G sensor requires CONSULT-II.
1. Stop vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position.
CAUTION:
• The work should be done on a level area with an unloaded vehicle.
• Keep all the tires inflated to the correct pressures. Adjust the tire pressure to the specified pres-
sure value.
2. Connect CONSULT-II with CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector on vehicle, and turn ignition
switch ON (do not start engine).
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carries out CAN communication.
3. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”, "ABS", "WORK SUPPORT" and "DECEL G SEN CALIBRA-
TION" on CONSULT-II screen in this order. Refer to BRC-26, "
CONSULT-II Function (ABS)".

3. Attach the liquid gasket tube to the Tool.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-45, "
Recommended Chemical Product and Sealant".
4. Apply the liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location
with the specified dimensions.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply the
liquid gasket to the groove.
• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the liquid gasket inside
the holes. If specified in the procedure, it should also be
applied outside the holes.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• Wait 30 minutes or more after installation before refilling the
engine with engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them. Tool number : WS39930000 ( — )

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.
