BACK DOOR OPENER OPERATION
NOTE:
The automatic back door system must be initialized by fully closing the back door anytime the battery
power is lost to the back door control unit. Refer to DLK-9, "
ADDITIONAL SERVICE WHEN REMOVING
BATTERY NEGATIVE TERMINAL : Description".
The automatic back door system consists of a one piec e unit that combines the back door control unit along
with the back door motor, back door clutch and the ba ck door encoder. The back door latch contains a lock
function that can control the two functions of autom atic back door latch closure and electrical opener with a
single motor when you close the back door to the halfway-state.
• Back door auto closure When the back door is closed to the halfway state (half- latch) position, the motor automatically drives to
rotate the latch lever and pull it in from half latched to full latched.
• Power back door With the back door closed, if you press the power liftgat e switch or press the keyfob button, or pull the back
door handle with the back door unlocked, the back door latch motor drives the open the locking plate and
releases the latch. The back door motor t hen raises the door to the full open position.
With the back door fully open, if you press the power liftgate switch, keyfob button or the back door close
switch, the back door motor closes the door to the half-latch state. The back door latch motor then drives the
latch to the full close position.
At the onset of each power open or power close applic ation, the hazard lamps will flash 3 times and the
warning chime will sound 3 dings lasting a total of 2 seconds.
OUTSIDE KEY ANTENNA DETECTION AREA
The outside key antenna detection area of back door open function
is in the range of approximately 80 cm (31.50 in) surrounding back
door opener request switch (1). However, this operating range
depends on the ambient conditions.

BACK DOOR OPENER FUNCTION
Power Liftgate Switch O
peration (Fully Closed → Fully Open Operation)
• When the power liftgate switch is pressed, back door control unit terminal 23 receives the signal.
• The back door control unit checks the A/T selector lever (P) position through terminal 18, vehicle speed
through terminal 21, ignition status through terminal 7, glass hatch is closed through terminal 17 and battery
voltage is present through terminal 3.
• When the back door control unit receives the signal, if the auto back door operating enable conditions are
met, it sends a 5 volt signal through terminal 6 and grounds terminal 9 to sound the warning chime, sends a
signal to the BCM through terminal 4 to flash the hazard lamps and unlocks the back door latch through ter-
minal 12.
• The back door control unit supplies power to the magnetic clutch and the back door motor and moves the back door in the open direction. (At this time, it also executes speed control, input reverse, and anti-pinch
detection control.)
• When the back door is opened to the full-open position, the full-open position is detected by the encoder, and the back door control unit switches the back door motor OFF and the magnetic clutch is pulsed and then
turned OFF.
• The back door is held in the fully open position by the gas stays.
Remote Keyless Entry Operation (Fully Closed → Fully Open Operation)
• When the keyfob button is pressed for at least 0.5 seconds, back door control unit terminal 21 receives the
signal.

tion through terminal 18, vehicle speed through terminal 21, ignition status through terminal 7, glass hatch is
closed, battery voltage and back door close switch position through terminal 13.
• When the back door control unit receives the signal, if all auto back door operating enable conditions are
met, it sends a 5 volt signal through terminal 6 and grounds terminal 9 to sound the warning chime, sends a
signal to the BCM through terminal 4 to flash the hazard lamps and unlocks the back door latch through ter-
minal 12.
• The back door control unit supplies power to the magnetic clutch and the back door motor and moves the
back door in the open direction. (At this time, it also executes speed control, input reverse, and anti-pinch

Reversal
The door will reverse direction during power open or close operation if the automatic door main switch, keyfob
or back door close switch is operated. A chime will sound to announce the reversal.
Anti-Pinch Function
• During auto operation, if an object is detected in the door's path, a warning chime sounds and the back door
operates in the reverse direction to prevent pinching.
• During auto close operation, if an object is detected by the pinch strips in the door's path, a warning chime sounds and the back door operates in the open direction until it is fully open.
Gas Stay Check
• During each power open operation, the back door control unit monitors motor current draw to determine ifthe gas stays are functioning properly.
• If a malfunction of the gas stays is detected, the back door control unit will close the back door while sound-
ing the warning chime. The back door cannot be opened usi ng the switches until the gas stay malfunction is
repaired.
Warning Functions
• The hazard warning lamps flash and a warning chime is sounded according to the back door operating state,
operations, and conditions.

< SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS >[WITH INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM]
SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
If the noise can be duplicated easily during the test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to dupli-
cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all of the following:
1) Close a door.
2) Tap or push/pull around the area where the noise appears to be coming from.
3) Rev the engine.
4) Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle “twist”.
5) At idle, apply engine load (electrical load, half-
clutch on M/T model, drive position on A/T model).
6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with a rubber hammer.
• Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs.
• If it is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the v ehicle slowly on an undulating or rough road to stress the
vehicle body.
CHECK RELATED SERVICE BULLETINS
After verifying the customer concern or symptom, chec k ASIST for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) related
to that concern or symptom.
If a TSB relates to the symptom, follo w the procedure to repair the noise.
LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE
1. Narrow down the noise to a general area. To help pi npoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool
(Chassis Ear: J-39570, Engine Ear and mechanics stethoscope).
2. Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the cause of the noise by:
• removing the components in the area that you suspect the noise is coming from.
Do not use too much force when removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fastener can be broken
or lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new noise.
• tapping or pushing/pulling the component that you suspect is causing the noise.
Do not tap or push/pull the component with excessive force, otherwise the noise will be eliminated only tem-
porarily.
• feeling for a vibration with your hand by touching the component(s) that you suspect is (are) causing the
noise.
• placing a piece of paper between components that you suspect are causing the noise.
• looking for loose components and contact marks. Refer to DLK-225, "
Inspection Procedure".
REPAIR THE CAUSE
• If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component securely.
• If the cause is insufficient clearance between components:
- separate components by repositioning or loos ening and retightening the component, if possible.
- insulate components with a suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth tape or urethane tape. A Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) is available through your authorized Nissan Parts Depart-
ment.
CAUTION:
Do not use excessive force as many components are constructed of plastic and may be damaged.
NOTE:
Always check with the Parts Departm ent for the latest parts information.
The following materials are contained in the Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980). Each item can be
ordered separately as needed.
