NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000003765606
NOTE:
Audio operation information, refer to Owner's Manual.
The majority of the audio concerns are the result of outside causes (bad CD, electromagnetic interference,
etc.).
NOISE
The following noise results from variations in field strength, such as fading noise and multi-path noise, or
external noise from trains and other sources. It is not a malfunction.
Fading noise: This noise occurs because of variations in the field strength in a narrow range due to moun-
tains or buildings blocking the signal.
Multi-path noise: This noise results from the waves sent directly from the broadcast station arriving at the
antenna at a different time from the waves that reflect off mountains or buildings.
The vehicle itself can be a source of noise if noise prevention parts or electrical equipment is malfunctioning.
Check if noise is caused and/or changed by engine speed, ignition switch turned to each position, and opera-
tion of each piece of electrical equipment, and then determine the cause.
NOTE:
The source of the noise can be easily found by listening to the noise while removing the fuses of electrical
components, one by one.
Types of Noise and Possible Causes
Occurrence condition Possible cause
Occurs only when engine is ON.A continuous growling noise occurs. The speed of
the noise varies with changes in the engine speed. Ignition components
The occurrence of the noise is linked with the operation of the fuel pump. Fuel pump condenser
Noise only occurs when various
electrical components are oper-
ating.A cracking or snapping sound occurs with the op-
eration of various switches. Relay malfunction, audio unit malfunction
The noise occurs when various motors are operat-
ing. Motor case ground
Motor
The noise occurs constantly, not just under certain conditions. Rear defogger coil malfunction
Open circuit in printed heater
Poor ground of antenna feeder line
A cracking or snapping sound occurs while the vehicle is being driven, especially when
it is vibrating excessively. Ground wire of body parts
Ground due to improper part installation
Wiring connections or a short circuit

Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000003811202
REMOVAL
Remove the vacuum hose and tube.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, install the vacuum hose and tube.
Because vacuum hose contains a check valve, it must be installed in the correct position. Refer to the stamp
to confirm correct installation. Brake booster will not operate normally if the hose is installed in the wrong
direction.
When installing vacuum hose, insert it until its tip reaches the
back-end of length (A) or further as shown in the figure.
- Face the marking side up when assembling of vacuum hose. (For
both side of vacuum hose of intake manifold side.)
- Face the marking side vehicle front when assembling of vacuum
hose. (For both side of vacuum hose of brake booster side)
CAUTION:
Never use lubricating oil during assembly.

PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Brake Control
INFOID:0000000003766861
When starting engine or when starting vehicle just after starting engine, brake pedal may vibrate or motor
operating noise may be heard from engine compartment. This is normal condition.
When an error is indicated by ABS or another warning lamp, collect all necessary information from customer
(what symptoms are present under what conditions) and check for estimate causes before starting diagnos-
tic servicing. Besides electrical system inspection, check brake booster operation, brake fluid level, and oil
leaks.
If tire size and type are used in an improper combination, or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts,
stopping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
ABS might be out of order or malfunctions by putting a radio (wiring inclusive), an antenna and a lead-in wire
near the control unit.
If aftermarket parts (car stereo, CD player, etc.) have been installed, check for incidents such as harness
pinches, open circuits, and improper wiring.
Precautions for Harness RepairINFOID:0000000003859437
COMMUNICATION LINE
Solder the repaired area and wrap tape around the soldered area.
NOTE:
A fray of twisted lines must be within 110 mm (4.33 in).
Bypass connection is never allowed at the repaired area.
NOTE:
Bypass connection may cause communication error as spliced
wires that are separate from the main line or twisted lines lose
noise immunity.
Replace the applicable harness as an assembly if error is detected
on the shield lines of communication line.

- When replacing the following parts with parts other than genuine parts or making modifications: Suspension
related parts (shock absorber, spring, bushing, etc.), tires, wheels (other than specified sizes), brake-related
parts (pad, rotor, caliper, etc.), engine-related parts (muffler, ECM, etc.) and body reinforcement-related parts
(roll bar, tower bar, etc.).
- When driving with worn or deteriorated suspension, tires and brake-related parts.
