Information Needed for Trouble DiagnosisINFOID:0000000001374970
CAN communication system performs trouble diagnosis with the following tools.
How to Use CAN Communication Signal ChartINFOID:0000000001374971
The CAN communication signal chart lists the signals needed for trouble diagnosis. It is useful for detecting
the root cause by finding a signal related to the sy
mptom, and by checking transmission and reception unit.

• Result: Symptom
NOTE:
• Check normal units as well as error symptoms.
- Example: Circuit between ECM and the combination meter is judged normal if the customer indicates
tachometer functions normally.
• When a CAN communication system error is present, multiple control units may malfunction or go into fail-
safe mode.
• Indication of the combination meter is important to detect the root cause because it is the most obvious to
the customer, and it performs CAN communication with many units.
INSPECTION OF VEHICLE CONDITION
• Check whether or not “U1000” or “U1001” is indi cated on “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” by CONSULT-III.
NOTE:
Root cause cannot be detected using the procedure in this section if “U1000” or “U1001” is not indicated.
• Check whether the symptom is reproduced or not.
NOTE:
• Do not turn the ignition switch OFF or disconnect the battery cable while reproducing the error. The error may temporarily correct itself, making it difficult to determine the root cause.
• The procedures for present errors differ from the procedures for past errors. Refer to “DETECT THE ROOT CAUSE”.
CHECK OF CAN SYSTEM TYPE (HOW TO USE CAN SYSTEM TYPE SPECIFICATION CHART)
Determine CAN system type based on vehicle equipm ent. Then choose the correct diagnosis sheet.
NOTE:
There are two styles for CAN system type specificat ion charts. Depending on the number of available system
types, either style A or style B may be used.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
General MaintenanceINFOID:0000000001606163
General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owner can perform these
checks and inspections or have thei r INFINITI dealers perform them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed fr om time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.

Exhaust system
Make sure there are no loose supports, cracks or holes. If the sound of the ex-
haust seems unusual or there is a smell of exhaust fumes, immediately locate
the trouble and correct it. MA-23
Underbody
The underbody is frequently exposed to corrosive substances such as those
used on icy roads or to control dust. It is very important to remove these sub-
stances, otherwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and around the
exhaust system. At the end of winter, the underbody should be thoroughly
flushed with plain water, being careful to clean those areas where mud and dirt
can easily accumulate. —
Fluid leaks Check under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks after the vehicle
has been parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioner after use is
normal. If you should notice any leaks or gasoline fumes are evident, check for
the cause and correct it immediately. —
