Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000005852251
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR 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 SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoper ative, 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 unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipm ent 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.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Un it or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or el ectric 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 minutes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000005852252
NOTE:
• This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
• Remove and install all control units after disconnecti ng 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 NATS , an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism 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 power 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.

< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS >
REAR SONAR SYSTEM
1. Turn ignition switch ON. Rear sonar system OFF switch indica-tor lamp illuminates for three seconds and then turns off.
2. Immediately push rear sonar system OFF switch ten times within five seconds.
3. The sonar buzzer will sound once and the sonar system OFF indicator will flash once.
REQUESTING NUMBER OF FAULT CODES MODE
1. While in "entering diagnostic mode", push rear sonar system
OFF switch once within 30 seconds of entering diagnostic
mode.
NOTE:
If the number of fault codes is not requested within 30 seconds
after entering diagnostic mode, the system will return to regular
operation mode.
2. The sonar buzzer will sound once.
3. Sonar system OFF indicator will flash once and sonar buzzer will sound once for each fault code detected.
4. There will be a four second pause.
5. The number of fault codes will repeat five times then pause. NOTE:
Self-diagnosis will exit unless "requesting faul t codes mode" occurs before five repeats ends.
REQUESTING FAULT CODES MODE
1. While in "requesting number of fault codes" mode, push rear
sonar system OFF switch once.
2. The sonar buzzer will sound once.
3. Sonar system OFF indicator will flash and sonar buzzer will sound the first digit of the fault code followed by a one second
pause.
4. Sonar system OFF indicator will flash and sonar buzzer will sound the second digit of the fault code followed by a four sec-
ond pause.
5. Each fault code will repeat five times then pause.
6. Write down each fault code. Then, acknowledge the fault code by pushing the rear sonar system OFF s witch once (the sonar buzzer may sound).
NOTE:
"Requesting fault codes mode" will exit unless the f ault code is acknowledged before it is repeated five
times. When all fault codes have been indicated, "clearing fault codes mode" will be entered. Refer to
SN-30, "
DTC Index".
CLEARING FAULT CODES MODE
NOTE:
While in "clearing fault codes mode", self-diagnosis will automatically exit if no activity occurs for 30 seconds.

CONSULT-III Function (AIR BAG)INFOID:0000000003775187
CONSULT-III can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
Self-Diagnosis Function (Without CONSULT-III)INFOID:0000000003775188
• The reading of these results is accomplished using one of two modes — “User mode” and “Diagnosis
mode”.
• After a malfunction is repaired, turn the ignition s witch OFF for at least one second, then back ON. Diagnosis
mode returns to the User mode. At that time, the self-diagnostic result is cleared.
AIR BAG diagnostic mode Description
SELF-DIAG [CURRENT] A current Self-diagnosis result (also indicated by the number of warning lamp flashes in the Diagnosis
mode) is displayed on the CONSULT-III screen in real
time. This refers to a malfunctioning part requir-
ing repairs.
SELF-DIAG [PAST] Diagnosis results previously stored in the memo
ry are displayed on the CONSULT-III screen. The
stored results will remain until memory erasing is executed.
TROUBLE DIAG RECORD With TROUBLE DIAG RECORD, diagnosis results previously erased by a reset operation can be dis-
played on the CONSULT-III screen.
ECU DISCRIMINATED NO. Air bag diagnosis sensor unit ECU discriminated number (identification number) is displayed. Air bag
diagnosis sensor unit has individual ECU discriminated number (identification number) based on model
and equipment.
PASSENGER AIR BAG The STATUS (readiness) of the front passenger air bag module is displayed. The STATUS displayed
(ON/OFF) depends on the signals supplied to the occupant classification system control module and
air bag diagnosis sensor unit. Refer to
SRC-10, "
Occupant Classification System (OCS)" for more in-
formation.
