UnitsNAS0000F

The UNITS given in this manual are primarily expressed as the SI UNIT (International System of Unit),
and alternatively expressed in the metric system and in the yard/pound system.
Also with regard to tightening torque of bolts and nuts, there are descriptions both about range and about
the standard tightening torque.

ContentsNAS0000G

ALPHABETICAL INDEX is provided at the end of this manual so that you can rapidly find the item and
page you are searching for.

A QUICK REFERENCE INDEX, a black tab (e.g. ) is provided on the first page. You can quickly find
the first page of each section by matching it to the section's black tab.

THE CONTENTS are listed on the first page of each section.

THE TITLE is indicated on the upper portion of each page and shows the part or system.

THE PAGE NUMBER of each section consists of two or three letters which designate the particular sec-
tion and a number (e.g. “BR-5”).

THE SMALL ILLUSTRATIONS show the important steps such as inspection, use of special tools, knacks
of work and hidden or tricky steps which are not shown in the previous large illustrations.
Assembly, inspection and adjustment procedures for the complicated units such as the automatic tran-
saxle or transmission, etc. are presented in a step-by-step format where necessary.Outer Socket Lock Nut : 59 - 78 N·m (6.0 - 8.0 kg-m, 43 - 58 ft-lb)
Drive Shaft Installation Bolt : 44.3 N·m (4.5 kg-m, 33 ft-lb)

THE LARGE ILLUSTRATIONS are exploded views (see the following) and contain tightening torques,
lubrication points, section number of the PARTS CATALOG (e.g. SEC. 440) and other information neces-
sary to perform repairs.
The illustrations should be used in reference to service matters only. When ordering parts, refer to the
appropriate PARTS CATALOG .
Components shown in an illustration may be identified by a circled number. When this style of illustration
is used, the text description of the components will follow the illustration.

How to Follow Trouble DiagnosesNAS0000I
DESCRIPTION
NOTICE:
Trouble diagnoses indicate work procedures required to diagnose problems effectively. Observe the following
instructions before diagnosing.
1.Before performing trouble diagnoses, read the “Preliminary Check”, the “Symptom Chart” or the
“Work Flow”.
2.After repairs, re-check that the problem has been completely eliminated.
3.Refer to Component Parts and Harness Connector Location for the Systems described in each
section for identification/location of components and harness connectors.
4.Refer to the Circuit Diagram for quick pinpoint check.
If you need to check circuit continuity between harness connectors in more detail, such as when a
sub-harness is used, refer to Wiring Diagram in each individual section and Harness Layout in PG
section for identification of harness connectors.
5.When checking circuit continuity, ignition switch should be OFF.
6.Before checking voltage at connectors, check battery voltage.
7.After accomplishing the Diagnostic Procedures and Electrical Components Inspection, make sure
that all harness connectors are reconnected as they were.
HOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUPS IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
1.Work and diagnostic procedure
Start to diagnose a problem using procedures indicated in enclosed test groups.
2.Questions and required results
Questions and required results are indicated in bold type in test group.
The meaning of are as follows:

3.Symbol used in illustration
Symbols included in illustrations refer to measurements or procedures. Before diagnosing a problem,
familiarize yourself with each symbol. Refer to "Connector Symbols" in GI Section and "KEY TO SYM-
BOLS SIGNIFYING MEASUREMENTS OR PROCEDURES" below.
4.Action items
Next action for each test group is indicated based on result of each question. Test group number is shown
in the left upper portion of each test group.
HARNESS WIRE COLOR AND CONNECTOR NUMBER INDICATION
There are two types of harness wire color and connector number indication.
TYPE 1: Harness Wire Color and Connector Number are Shown in Illustration

Letter designations next to test meter probe indicate harness
wire color.

Connector numbers in a single circle (e.g. M33) indicate har-
ness connectors.

Connector numbers in a double circle (e.g. F211) indicate com-
ponent connectors.a. Battery voltage → 11 - 14V or approximately 12V
b. Voltage : Approximately 0V → Less than 1V

How to Read Wiring DiagramsNAS000A3
CONNECTOR SYMBOLS
Most of connector symbols in wiring diagrams are shown from the terminal side.

Connector symbols shown from the terminal side are enclosed
by a single line and followed by the direction mark.

Connector symbols shown from the harness side are enclosed
by a double line and followed by the direction mark.

Certain systems and components, especially those related to
OBD, may use a new style slide-locking type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG section,
“Description”, “HARNESS CONNECTOR”.

Male and female terminals
Connector guides for male terminals are shown in black and
female terminals in white in wiring diagrams.
