< BASIC INSPECTION >
SERVICE INFORMATION FOR ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
An unclamped or loose harness can cause wiring to be pinched by seat components (such as slide guides)
during vehicle vibration. If the wiring runs under s eating areas, inspect wire routing for possible damage or
pinching.
HEAT SENSITIVE
• The customer's concern may occur during hot weather or after car has sat for a short time. In such cases you will want to check for a
heat sensitive condition.
• To determine if an electrical component is heat sensitive, heat the component with a heat gun or equivalent.
CAUTION:
Do not heat components above 60 °C (140° ).
• If incident occurs while heating the unit, either replace or properly insulate the component.
FREEZING
• The customer may indicate the incident goes away after the carwarms up (winter time). The cause could be related to water freez-
ing somewhere in the wiring/electrical system.
• There are two methods to check for this. The first is to arrange for the owner to leave his car overnight. Make sure it will get cold
enough to demonstrate his complaint. Leave the car parked out-
side overnight. In the morning, do a quick and thorough diagnosis
of those electrical components which could be affected.
• The second method is to put the suspect component into a freezer long enough for any water to freeze. Reinstall the part into the car
and check for the reoccurrence of the incident. If it occurs, repair or
replace the component.
WATER INTRUSION
The incident may occur only during high humidity or in rainy/snowy
weather. In such cases the incident could be caused by water intru-
sion on an electrical part. This can be simulated by soaking the car
or running it through a car wash.
CAUTION:
Do not spray water directly on any electrical components.
ELECTRICAL LOAD
The incident may be electrical load sensitive. Perform diagnosis with
all accessories (including A/C, rear window defogger, radio, fog
lamps) turned on.
COLD OR HOT START UP
On some occasions an electrical incident may occur only when the car is started cold, or it may occur when
the car is restarted hot shortly after being turned off. In these cases you may have to keep the car overnight to
make a proper diagnosis.

REMOVAL
1. Remove inside mirror. Refer to MIR-10, "Removal and Installation".
2. Partially remove the headlining (front edge). Refer to INT-17, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Remove cowl top cover. Refer to EXT-18, "

4. Apply a protective tape around the windshield gl ass to protect the painted surface from damage.
• Remove glass using piano wire or power cutting tool and an inflatable pump bag.
• If the windshield glass is to be reused, mark the body and the glass with mating marks.
WARNING:
When cutting the glass from the vehicle, always wear safety glasses and heavy gloves to help prevent
glass splinters from entering your eyes or cutting your hands.
CAUTION:
• When the windshield glass is to be reused, do not use a cutting knife or power cutting tool.
• Be careful not to scratch the glass when removing.
• Do not set or stand glass on its ed ge. Small chips may develop into cracks.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Use a genuine NISSAN Urethane Adhesive Kit (if availabl e) or equivalent and follow the instructions fur-
nished with it.
• While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window . This will prevent the glass from being forced out
by passenger compartment air pressure when a door is closed.
• The molding must be installed securely so that it is in position and leaves no gap.
• Inform the customer that the vehicle should rema in stationary until the urethane adhesive has completely
cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.
