Precaution Necessary for Steering W
heel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000001524895
NOTE:
 This Procedure is applied only to models with In telligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM - NATS).
 Remove and install all control units after disconnecting 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.
Precaution for Drain Engine Coolant and Engine OilINFOID:0000000001325752
Drain engine coolant and engine oil when engine is cooled.
Precaution for Disconnecting Fuel PipingINFOID:0000000001325753
 Before starting work, make sure no fire or spark producing items are in the work area.
 Release fuel pressure before disconnecting and disassembly.
 After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precaution for Removal and DisassemblyINFOID:0000000001325754
 When instructed to use SST, use specified tools. Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or unin-
structed operations.
 Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.
 Cover openings of engine system with tape or the equival ent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.
 Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organi zed way for easy troubleshooting and assembly.
 When loosening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, star t with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally
opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified. Power tools may be used
where noted in the step.
Precaution for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementINFOID:0000000001325755
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.

SERVICE INFORMATION
PRECAUTIONS
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001325649
Observe the following precautions to ensure safe and proper servicing. These precautions are not
described in each individual section.
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint S ystem (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001612904
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 w hether 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 inopera tive, 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 NISS AN/INFINITI dealer.
 Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the “SUPPLEMEN TAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM”.
 Do not use electrical test equipmen t 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.

Testing for “Shorts” in the Circuit
To simplify the discussion of shorts in the system, please refer to the following schematic.
RESISTANCE CHECK METHOD
 Disconnect the battery negative cable and remove the blown fuse.
 Disconnect all loads (SW1 open, relay disconnected and solenoid disconnected) powered through the fuse.
 Connect one probe of the DMM to the load side of the fuse terminal. Connect the other probe to a known
good ground.

VOLTAGE CHECK METHOD
 Remove the blown fuse and disconnect all loads (i .e. SW1 open, relay disconnected and solenoid discon-
nected) powered through the fuse.
 Turn the ignition key to the ON or START position. Veri fy battery voltage at the battery + side of the fuse ter-
minal (one lead on the battery + terminal side of the fuse block and one lead on a known good ground).
 With SW1 open and the DMM leads across both fuse terminals, check for voltage.

no voltage; short is further down the circuit than SW1.
 With SW1 closed, relay and solenoid disconnected and t he DMM leads across both fuse terminals, check for
voltage.

no voltage; short is further down the circuit than the relay.
 With SW1 closed, relay contacts jumped with fused jumper wire check for voltage.
voltage; short is down the circuit of the relay or between the relay and the disconnected solenoid (point C).
no voltage; retrace steps and check power to fuse block.
Ground Inspection
Ground connections are very important to the proper oper ation of electrical and electronic circuits. Ground
connections are often exposed to moisture, dirt and other corrosive elements. The corrosion (rust) can
become an unwanted resistance. This unwanted re sistance can change the way a circuit works.
Electronically controlled circuits are very sensitive to proper grounding. A loose or corroded ground can drasti-
cally affect an electronically controlled circuit. A poor or corroded ground can easily affect the circuit. Even
when the ground connection looks clean, there can be a thin film of rust on the surface.
When inspecting a ground connection follow these rules:
 Remove the ground bolt or screw.
 Inspect all mating surfaces for tarnish, dirt, rust, etc.

TOW TRUCK TOWING
TOW TRUCK TOWING
Tow Truck TowingINFOID:0000000001325684
CAUTION:
 All applicable state or Provincial (in Canada) laws and local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.
 It is necessary to use proper towi ng equipment to avoid possible damage to the vehicle during tow-
ing operation. To wing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.
 Always attach safety chains before towing.
 When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and powertrain are in good order. If
any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.
 Never tow an automatic transmission model from the rear (that is backward) with four wheels on the
ground. This may cause serious and exp ensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that vehicle be towed with the dr iving (rear) wheels off the ground or that a dolly be
used as illustrated.
CAUTION:
 Never tow automatic transmission models with the r ear wheels on the ground or four wheels on the
ground (forward or backward), as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmis-
sion.
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the fron t wheels raised, always use towing dollies under the
rear wheels.
 When towing rear wheel drive mo dels with the front wheels on the ground or on towing dollies:
- Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wh eel in a straight ahead position
with a rope or similar device.Never secure the st eering wheel by turning the ignition key to the LOCK
position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism.
- Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.
 When the battery of vehicle equipped with the Intelligent Key system is discharged, your vehicle
should be towed with the front wh eels on towing dollies or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck.
If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, re move the propeller shaft before towing to prevent dam-
age to the transmission.
