Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001691368
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. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of
this Service Manual.
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 harness connec-
tors.
Precaution for Brake SystemINFOID:0000000001691369
Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN Fluid, DOT 3 or DOT 4 (US FMVSS No. 116).
Do not reuse the drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas such as body. If brake fluid is splashed, wipe it off and
flush area with water immediately.
Do not use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene to clean. They will ruin rubber parts and cause
improper operation.
Using a flare nut torque wrench, securely tighten brake tube flare
nuts.
Brake system is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is
detected, always disassemble malfunctioning parts. If any mal-
functioning part is found, replace the part with a new one.
Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect connec-
tors for ABS actuator and electric unit or battery terminals.
When installing brake piping, be sure to check tightening torque.
Precaution for Brake ControlINFOID:0000000001691370
During ABS operation, brake pedal lightly vibrates and a mechanical noise may be heard. This is normal.
When starting engine, or just after starting vehicle, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noise may be
heard from engine compartment. This is a normal status of operation check.
Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when vehicle drives on rough, gravel, or
snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.
When an error is indicated by ABS or another warning lamp, collect all necessary information from the cus-
tomer (what symptoms are present under what conditions) and check for simple causes before starting diag-
nostic servicing. Besides the electrical system inspection, check booster operation, brake fluid level, and oil
leaks.
If tyre size and type are used in an improper combination, or brake pads are not Genuine Nissan parts, stop-
ping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
If there is a radio, antenna, or antenna lead-in wire (including wiring) near the control unit, ABS system may
malfunction or return an error.
If aftermarket parts (e.g. car stereo equipment, CD player) have been installed, check electrical harnesses
for pinches, open, and improper wiring.

tery negative terminals.
When installing brake piping, be sure to check torque.
After removing/installing any hydraulic parts of the brake or ESP
system (such as actuator and piping parts, etc), bleed air from the
system.

During ESP/TCS/ABS operation, brake pedal lightly vibrates and a mechanical noise may be heard. This is
normal.
When starting engine, or just after starting vehicle, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noise may be
heard from engine room. This is a normal status of operation check.
Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when vehicle drives on rough, gravel, or
snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.
When an error is indicated by ABS or another warning lamp, collect all necessary information from the cus-

If there is a radio, antenna, or antenna lead-in wire (including wiring) near control module, ESP/TCS/ABS
function may have a malfunction or error.
If aftermarket parts (car stereo, CD player, etc.) have been installed, check for incidents such as harness
pinches, open circuits, and improper wiring.

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
WARNING:
Use a protector to prevent a burn during the work.
Thermostat
Place a thread (A) so that it is caught in the valves of thermostat
(1). Immerse fully in a container (B) filled with water. Heat while
stirring.
The valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the
valve opens and falls from the thread.
Continue heating. Check the full open valve lift amount.
After checking the maximum valve lift amount, lower the water
temperature and check the valve closing temperature.
If out of the standard, replace thermostat.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check that the reservoir tank cap is tightened.
Check for leaks of engine coolant using suitable tools. Refer to CO-11, "
Inspection".
Start and warm up the engine. Visually make sure that there is no leaks of engine coolant.

NOTE:
If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC U1000 U1001, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC U1000
U1001. Refer to EC-128, "
DTC Logic".
If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC U1010, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC U1010. Refer
to EC-129, "
DTC Logic".
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant. Refer to CO-11, "
Inspection". Also,
replace the engine oil. Refer to LU-7, "
Draining".
1. Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to
use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-20, "
SAE Viscosity Number".
2. After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK
Perform component function check. Refer to EC-257, "
Component Function Check".
NOTE:
Use component function check to check the overall function of the cooling fan. During this check, a DTC might
not be confirmed.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> Go to EC-258, "
Diagnosis Procedure".

WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high pres-
sure fluid escaping from the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap. Carefully remove the cap by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up
pressure to escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.
