PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001612929
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 Necessary for Steering Wh eel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000001612931
NOTE:
This Procedure is applied only to models with Intell igent Key system and NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM - NATS).
Remove and install all control units after disconnecti ng both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″ LOCK ″ position.
Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS, an electrically controlled steering lock
mechanism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery pow er is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC ″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.

PREPARATION
Refrigerant container fittings, service hose fittings and service equipment fittings (equipment which handles
refrigerant and/or lubricant) are different between CF C-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). This is to avoid
mixed use of the refrigerants/lubricant.
Never use adapters that convert one size fitting to another: refrigerant/lubricant contamination occurs and
compressor malfunction may result.

AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL
AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL
Description of Air Conditioner LAN Control SystemINFOID:0000000001328167
The LAN (Local Area Network) syst em consists of unified meter and A/C amp., mode door motor, air mix door
motors and intake door motor.
A configuration of these component s is shown in the figure below.
System ConstructionINFOID:0000000001328168
A small network is constructed between the unifi ed meter and A/C amp., air mix door motors, mode door
motor and intake door motor. The unified meter and A/C amp. and motors are connected by data transmission
lines and motor power supply lines. The LAN network is built through the ground circuits of each door motor.
Addresses, motor opening angle signals, motor stop si gnals and error checking messages are all transmitted
through the data transmission lines connecting the unified meter and A/C amp. and each door motor.
The following functions are contained in LCUs built into the air mix door motors, the mode door motor and the
intake door motor.
Address
Motor opening angle signals
Data transmission
Motor stop and drive decision
Opening angle sensor (PBR function)
Comparison
Decision (Unified meter and A/C amp. indicated value and motor opening angle comparison)
OPERATION
The unified meter and A/C amp. receives data from each of the sensors. The unified meter and A/C amp.
sends mode door, air mix door and intake door opening angle data to the mode door motor LCU, air mix door
motor LCU and intake door motor LCU.
The mode door motor, air mix door motors and intake door motor read their respective signals according to the
address signal. Opening angle indication signals received from the unified meter and A/C amp. and each of
the motor position sensors is compared by the LCUs in each door motor with the existing decision and open-
ing angles. Subsequently, HOT/COLD, DEF/VENT and FRE/ REC operation is selected. The new selection
data is returned to the unified meter and A/C amp.

Self-Diagnosis FunctionINFOID:0000000001328181
DESCRIPTION
The self-diagnosis system diagnoses sensors, door motors, blower motor, etc. by system line. Refer to appli-
cable sections (items) for details. Shifting from norma l control to the self-diagnosis system is accomplished by
starting the engine (turning the ignition switch ON) and pr essing OFF switch for at least 5 seconds. The OFF
switch must be pressed within 10 seconds after starting the engine (ignition switch is turned ON). This system
will be canceled by either pressing AUTO switch or turn ing the ignition switch OFF. Shifting from one step is
accomplished by means of pressi ng temperature control switch (driver side), as required.

1. Press fan (UP:+) switch. Blower should operate on low speed. The fan symbol should have one blade lit.
2. Press fan (UP:+) switch again, and continue che cking blower speed and fan symbol until all speeds are
checked.
3. Leave blower on max. speed.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-64, "
Blower Motor Circuit".
If OK, continue the check.
CHECKING DISCHARGE AIR
1. Press MODE switch and DEF switch.
2. Each position indicator should change shape.
3. Confirm that discharge air comes out according to the air distri-
bution table. Refer to ATC-29, "
Discharge Air Flow".
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-57, "
Mode Door
Motor Circuit".
If OK, continue the check.
NOTE:
Confirm that the compressor clutch is engaged (sound or visual
inspection) and intake door position is at FRE when the D/F or DEF
is selected.
CHECKING INTAKE AIR
1. Press intake switch. Recirculation indicator should illuminate.
2. Press intake switch again. Fresh indicator should illuminate.
3. Listen for intake door position change. (S light change of blower sound can be heard.)
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-62, "
Intake Door Motor Circuit".
If OK, continue the check.
NOTE:
Confirm that the compressor clutch is engaged (sound or visual inspection) and intake door position is at FRE
when the D/F or DEF is selected.
CHECKING TEMPERATURE DECREASE
1. Press temperature control (DOWN) switch (driver side) until 18 °C (60 °F) is displayed.
2. Check for cold air at discharge air outlets.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-75, "
Insufficient Cooling".
If OK, continue the check.
CHECKING TEMPERATURE INCREASE
1. Press temperature control (UP) switch (driver side) until 32 °C (90 °F) is displayed.
2. Check for hot air at discharge air outlets.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-82, "
Insufficient Heating".
If OK, continue the check.
CHECKING A/C SWITCH
1. Press AUTO switch and A/C switch.
2. A/C switch indicator will turn ON. Confirm that the compressor clutch engages (sound or visual inspection).
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-69, "
Magnet Clutch Circuit".
If OK, continue the check.
CHECKING AUTO MODE
1. Press AUTO switch and A/C switch.
2. Display should indicate AUTO. Confirm that discharge air and blower speed will depend on ambient, in-vehicle, and set temperatures.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for ATC-52, "
