PRECAUTIONPFP:00011
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NKS00544
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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal 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
harness connectors.
Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top CoverNKS00545
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precautions for Battery ServiceNKS00546
Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interfer-
ence between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.

FRONT WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM
Revision: 2006 November2007 350Z
FRONT WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEMPFP:28810
Components Parts and Harness Connector LocationNKS0051Z
System DescriptionNKS00520
All front wiper relays (HI, LO) are included in IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine
room).
Wiper switch (combination switch) is composed of a combination of 5 output terminals and 5 input termi-
nals. Terminal combination status is read by BCM (body control module) when switch is turned ON.
BCM controls front wiper LO, HI, and INT (intermittent) operation.
IPDM E/R operates wiper motor according to CAN communication signals from BCM.
OUT LINE
Power is supplied at all times
to ignition relay, located in IPDM E/R, from battery direct
through 40 A fusible link [letter F, located in fuse, fusible link and relay box]
to BCM terminal 55,
through 10 A fuse [No.18 located in fuse block (J/B)]
to BCM terminal 42,
through 30 A fuse [No.73 located in IPDM E/R]
to front wiper relay, located in IPDM E/R,
through 15 A fuse [No.78 located in IPDM E/R]
to CPU (central processing unit) located in IPDM E/R,
through 10 A fuse [No.71 located in IPDM E/R]
to CPU located in IPDM E/R.
When ignition switch is in ON or START position, power is supplied
to ignition relay, located in IPDM E/R,
through 10 A fuse [No.1 located in fuse block (J/B)]
to BCM terminal 38,
through ignition relay, located in IPDM E/R
to front wiper relay, located in IPDM E/R
to front wiper high relay, located in IPDM E/R
to CPU located in IPDM E/R,
through 10 A fuse [No.84 located in IPDM E/R]
through IPDM E/R terminal 44
