Diagnosis by Error History
 When having a difficulty on the investigation of cause due to multiple errors with a reproducible malfunction,
turn ON the ignition switch from OFF mode after maki ng a memo of the item and number of time (or delete
“Error History”). Check “Error History” again afte r the malfunction was reproduced, and then perform diagno-
sis focusing on the item of which number of time increased.
 DVD-ROM error history may be restored because DV D-ROM cannot be temporarily read. (Driving on rough
road etc.) Then, erase the error history. (This is not a ma lfunction.) Perform service in “Action to take” if error
history are repeatedly indicated again.

PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001612923
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severi ty 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 “SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYS-
TEM” and “SEAT BELTS” of this Service Manual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoper ative, 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 in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the “SUPPLEMEN TAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM”.
 Do not use electrical test equipm ent on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identi fied by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
Precaution for Brake SystemINFOID:0000000001327654
 Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”. Refer to MA-9.
 Do not reuse 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 crowfoot and torque wrench, securely tighten brake tube flare nuts.
 Brake system is an important safe ty part. If a brake fluid leak is
detected, always disassemble the affected part. If a malfunction is
detected, replace part with a new one.
 Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect electrical
connectors of ABS actuator and elec tric unit (control unit) or bat-
tery negative terminal.
 When installing brake piping, be sure to check torque.
WARNING:
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with
a dust collector.
Precaution for Brake ControlINFOID:0000000001327655
 During VDC/TCS/ABS operation, brake pedal lightly vi brates and a mechanical noise may be heard. This is
normal.
 Just after starting vehicle after turning ignition switch ON, 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 customer
(what symptoms are present under what conditions) and check for simple causes before starting diagnostic
servicing. Besides electrical system inspection, c heck booster operation, brake fluid level, and fluid leaks.
 If tire size and type are used in an improper combinat ion, or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts,
stopping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
 If there is a radio, antenna, or antenna lead-in wire (including wiring) near control module, VDC/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.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMS
The ABS Function Does Not Operate
INFOID:0000000001327695
CAUTION:
The ABS does not operate when the sp eed is 10 km/h (6 MPH) or less.
1.CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure warning lamp turns off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> CHECK WHEEL SENSOR. Refer to BRC-49, "Excessive ABS Function Operation Frequency".
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-26, "
Self-Diagnosis".
Pedal Vibration or ABS Operation Sound OccursINFOID:0000000001327696
CAUTION:
Under the following conditions, when brake pedal is lightly depressed (just place a foot on it), ABS is
activated and vibration is felt. However, this is normal.
 When shifting gears
 When driving on slippery road
 During cornering at high speed
 When passing over bumps or grooves
 When pulling away just after st arting engine [at approximately 10 km/h (6 MPH) or higher]
1.SYMPTOM CHECK 1
Check if pedal vibration or operati on sound occurs when engine is started.
OK or NG
OK >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-26, "Self-Diagnosis".
NG >> GO TO 2.
2.SYMPTOM CHECK 2
Check symptom when electrical component (headlamps, etc.) switches are operated.
Does the symptom occur when the electrical component (head lamp, etc.) switches are operated?
YES >> Check if there is a radio, antenna, antenna lead wi re, or wiring close to ABS actuator and electric
unit (control unit) (or its wiring), and if there is, move it farther away.
NO >> CHECK WHEEL SENSOR. Refer to BRC-49, "
Excessive ABS Function Operation Frequency".
Vehicle Jerks During VDC/TCS/ABS ControlINFOID:0000000001327697
1.CHECK ENGINE SPEED SIGNAL
Perform CONSULT-III “DATA MONITOR” to check engine speed.
Is engine speed at idle 400 rpm or higher?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure warning lamp turns off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> System is normal.
NG >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK ECM SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
Perform ECM self-diagnosis.
Are self-diagnosis items displayed?
YES >> Check the corresponding items. Refer to EC-89(VQ35DE), EC-666(VK45DE) in “Engine Control
(EC section)”.
NO >> GO TO 4.

Precaution for Procedur e without Cowl Top CoverINFOID:0000000001612933
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
General PrecautionINFOID:0000000001325654
 Do not operate the engine for an extended period of time without
proper exhaust ventilation.
Keep the work area well ventilated and free of any flammable
materials. Special care should be taken when handling any flam-
mable or poisonous materials, such as gasoline, refrigerant gas,
etc. When working in a pit or ot her enclosed area, be sure to prop-
erly ventilate the area before working with hazardous materials.
Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.
 Before jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other tire
blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. After jack-
ing up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with safety stands at
the points designated for proper lifting before working on the vehi-
cle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.
 When removing a heavy component such as the engine or tran- saxle/transmission, be careful not to lose your balance and drop
them. Also, do not allow them to strike adjacent parts, especially
the brake tubes and master cylinder.
 Before starting repairs which do not require battery power: Turn off ignition switch.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
 If the battery terminals are disconnected, recorded memory of radio and each control unit is erased.
 Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and
lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
