Self-diagnosisNFS000HG
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Before performing the self-diagnosis, start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for
approximately 1 minute.
HOW TO ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS
1. After erasing DTC memory, start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately
1 minute as the final inspection, and make sure that the ABS warning lamp, TCS OFF indicator lamp,
SLIP indicator lamp and brake warning lamp turn OFF.
CAUTION:
If memory cannot be erased, perform applicably diagnosis.

When the wheel sensor malfunctions, after inspecting the wheel sensor system, the ABS warning lamp,
TCS OFF indicator lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and brake warning lamp will not turn OFF even when the
system is normal unless the vehicle is driving at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approxi-
mately 1 minute.

Brake warning lamp will turn ON in case of parking brake operation (when switch is ON) or of brake
fluid level switch operation (when brake fluid is insufficient).

Revision: 2006 November2007 350Z
Note 1: After completing repairs of the shorted sensor circuit, when ignition switch is turned ON, ABS warning lamp turns on. Check that
ABS warning lamp turns off while driving the vehicle at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute according
to self-diagnosis procedure. In addition, if wheel sensor 2 is displayed for the wheels, check the wheel sensor circuit and also check the
control unit power voltage.

Active TestNFS000IO
CAUTION:

Do not perform active test while driving.

Make sure to completely bleed air from the brake system.

The ABS and brake warning lamps turn on during the active test.
NOTE:

When the active test is conducted while depressing the pedal, the pedal depression amount will change,
but this is normal.

Approximately 10 seconds after the operation is begun, “TEST STOP” will be displayed.
TEST ITEM
Solenoid valve
CAUTION:
The example shown is for the front right wheel. The procedure for the other wheels is the same as
given below.
For ABS solenoid valve, touch “UP”, “KEEP”, and “DOWN”.Then use screen monitor to check that solenoid
valve operates as shown in the table below.
*: ON for 1 to 2 seconds after the touch, and then OFF
ABS Motor
Touch “ON”, “OFF” on the display screen and make sure the ABS motor relay is operating as shown in the
table below.
Correct and Quick DiagnosisNFS00036
DIAGNOSIS PRECAUTIONS

Before performing the trouble diagnosis, always read the general information (GI) to confirm the general
precautions. Refer to GI-3, "
General Precautions" .

After completing service, always erase the self-diagnosis results. Refer to BRC-53, "HOW TO ERASE
SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS" .

When inspection of the continuity or voltage between units is performed, check connector terminals for
disconnection, looseness, bend, or collapse. If any non-standard condition is detected, repair or replace
applicable part.

Intermittent errors may be caused by a poor connection in the harness, connector, or terminal. Move har-
nesses, harness connectors, or terminals by hand to make sure all connections are solid and undamaged.

If a circuit tester is used for the check, be careful not to forcibly extend any connector terminal.

TCS/ABS is a system that uses electronic control to perform brake control and engine power control.
Therefore, phenomena like those shown in the following table may occur, but this is because the system is
working normally.

Symptom Symptom description Result
Motor operation noiseThis is the sound of the motor operating inside ABS actuator and electric unit
(control unit), and there may be some low sounds while TCS or ABS is oper-
ating.
Normal
Just after the engine starts, the motor operating noise may be heard. This is
a normal status of the system operation check.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. CHECK SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS
Check self-diagnosis results.
Is the above displayed in the self-diagnosis display item?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> INSPECTION END
2. CHECK CONNECTOR
1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector, check terminal to see if it is deformed,
disconnected, loose, etc., and if there is an error, repair or replace the terminal.
2. Securely reconnect the connector and then perform self-diagnosis.
Is the result of self-diagnosis normal?
YES >> The connector terminal contact is loose, damaged, open or shorted.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3. CHECK ABS ACTUATOR RELAY OR ABS MOTOR RELAY POWER CIRCUIT
1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector E51.
2. For ABS actuator relay, measure the voltage between the con-
nector terminal 1 and ground. For ABS motor relay, measure the
voltage between connector terminal 15 and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4
NG >> Error in the circuit between battery and ABS actuator
and electric unit (control unit). Repair the circuit.
4. CHECK ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT) GROUND CIRCUIT
Check continuity between ABS actuator and electric unit (control
unit) connector and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> Replace ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
NG >> Open or short in harness. Repair or replace the harness.
