Precaution for Supplemental Restraint Syst
em (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000004876563
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 severity 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 SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
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 NISSAN/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 SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minu tes before performing any service.
Working with HFC-134a (R-134a)INFOID:0000000001679839
WARNING:
• CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refr igerant are not compatible. If the refrigerants
are mixed compressor failure is likely to occur. Refer to HA-4, "
Contaminated Refrigerant". To deter-
mine the purity of HFC-134a (R-134a) in the vehic le and recovery tank, use Refrigerant Recovery/
Recycling Recharging equipment and Refrigerant Identifier.
• Use only specified oil for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) components. If
oil other than that specified is used, compressor failure is likely to occur.
• The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) oi l rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The following
handling precautions must be observed:
- When removing refrigerant components from a vehicle, immediately cap (seal) the component to
minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere.
- When installing refrigerant co mponents to a vehicle, do not remove the caps (unseal) until just
before connecting the components. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly as possible
to minimize the entry of moisture into system.
- Only use the specified oil from a sealed container. Immediately reseal containers of oil. Without proper sealing, oil will become moisture saturat ed and should not be used.
- Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and oil vapor or mist. Exposure may irrita te eyes, nose and throat.
Remove HFC-134a (R-134a) from the A/C system usin g certified service equipment meeting require-
ments of SAE J2210 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recycling equipment], or J2209 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recy-
cling equipment], If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming
service. Additional health and safety information may be obtain ed from refrigerant and oil manufac-
turers.
- Do not allow A/C oil to come in contact with styrofoam parts. Damage may result.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Example: Data link connector branch line open circuit
NOTE:
• When data link connector branch line is open, transmission and reception of CAN communication signals
are not affected. Therefore, no symptoms occur. However, be sure to repair malfunctioning circuit.
• When data link connector branch line is open, “ECU list” displayed on the CONSULT-III “CAN DIAG SUP- PORT MNTR” may be the same as when the CAN communication line has short-circuit. However, symp-
toms differ depending on the case. See below chart for the differences.
EPS control unit Normal operation.
Combination meter • Shift position indicator and OD OFF indicator turn OFF.
• Warning lamps turn ON.
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) Normal operation.
TCM No impact on operation.

3. Based on information received from “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR”, place a check mark on the known good CAN communication line between ECM and IPDM-E.
a. Through the previous procedure, the circuit betw een ADP splice and TCM has the most amount of lines
(shade 3-a in the figure below).
b. Place a check mark on the known good lines to establish the error circuit.

the possible error circuit.
NOTE:
For the details of each indication on CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR, refer to LAN-47, "
CAN Diagnostic Sup-
port Monitor".
a. Reception item of “ECM”: “VDC/TCS/ABS”, “3” is indicated in the “PAST”. This means ECM could not receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between ECM and ABS (line 2-a in the figure below).
b. Reception item of “M&A”: “VDC/TCS/ABS”, “3” is indicated in the “PAST”. This means M&A could not
receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between M&A and ABS (line 2-b in the figure below).
