Precaution for Brake SystemINFOID:0000000005148094
CAUTION:
• Always use recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-13, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Never reuse drained brake fluid.
• Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is
splashed on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
• To clean or wash all parts of master cylin der and disc brake caliper, use clean brake fluid.
• Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosen e. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic sys-
tem.
• Use flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tube.
• If a brake fluid leak is found, the part must be disassembled
without fail. Then it has to be replaced with a new one if a
defect exists.
• Turn the ignition switch OFF and remove the connector of the ABS actuator and electric unit (con trol unit) or the battery ter-
minal before performing the work.
• Always torque brake lines when installing.
• Burnish the brake contact surf aces after refinishing or replac-
ing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at
very low mileage.
Refer to BR-30, "
Brake Burnishing Procedure" (front disc brake) or BR-35, "Brake Burnishing Proce-
dure" (rear disc brake).
WARNING:
• Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cl oth, then wipe with a dust collector.
Precaution for Brake ControlINFOID:0000000005148095
• During ABS operation, the brake pedal may vibrate lightly and a mechanical noise may be heard. This is
normal.
• Just after starting vehicle, the brake pedal may vibrate or a motor operating noise may be heard from engine
compartment. This is a normal status of operation check.
• Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when vehicle drives on rough, gravel, or snow-covered (fresh, deep snow) roads.
• 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 simple causes before starting diagnosis.
Besides electrical system inspection, check boos ter operation, brake fluid level, and fluid leaks.
• If incorrect tire sizes or types are installed on the vehicle or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts, stop-
ping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
• If there is a radio, antenna or related wiring near control module, ABS function may have a malfunction or
error.
• If aftermarket parts (car stereo, CD player, etc.) have been installed, check for incidents such as harness pinches, open circuits or improper wiring.
• If the following components are replaced with non-genuine components or modified, the VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp may turn on or the VDC system may not operate properly. Components
related to suspension (shock absorbers, struts, springs , bushings, etc.), tires, wheels (exclude specified
size), components related to brake system (pads, roto rs, calipers, etc.), components related to engine (muf-
fler, ECM, etc.), components related to body reinforcement (roll bar, tower bar, etc.).
• Driving with broken or excessively worn suspensi on components, tires or brake system components may
cause the VDC OFF indicator lamp and the SLIP indicator lamp to turn on, and the VDC system may not
operate properly.
• When the TCS or VDC is activated by sudden acceleration or sudden turn, some noise may occur. The noise is a result of the normal operation of the TCS and VDC.
• When driving on roads which have extreme slopes (such as mountainous roads) or high banks (such as sharp curves on a freeway), the VDC may not operate no rmally, or the VDC warning lamp and the SLIP indi-
cator lamp may turn on. This is not a problem if normal operation can be resumed after restarting the engine.

< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS >[ATX14B]
4WD SYSTEM
• Displays 4LO condition while engine is running. 4LO indicator lamp flashes if transfer gear does not shift
completely under 2WD, AUTO, 4H ⇔4LO. (When 4WD warning lamp is turned on, 4LO indicator lamp is
turned off.)
• Turns ON for approximately 1 second when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check.
4WD WARNING LAMP
Turns on or flashes when there is a malfunction in 4WD system.
Also turns on when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp che\
ck. Turns OFF approximately 1 sec-
ond after the engine starts if system is normal.
4WD Warning Lamp Indication
ATP WARNING LAMP
When the A/T selector lever is in P position, the vehicle may move if the transfer case is in neutral. ATP warn-
ing lamp is turned on to indicate this condition to the driver.
LINE PRESSURE SWITCH
• With the transfer system design, control of the oil pressure provides the transmission of drive torque to the
front wheels. The main pressure to control the oil pressure is referred to as the line pressure.
• The line pressure switch determines whether or not adequate line pressure has built up under different oper- ating conditions.
• The line pressure switch closes when line pressure is produced.
• The line pressure switch senses line pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
CLUTCH PRESSURE SWITCH
• The clutch pressure switch determines whether or not adequate clutch pressure has built up under different
operating conditions.
• The clutch pressure switch closes when clutch pressure is produced.
• The clutch pressure switch senses clutch pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
WAIT DETECTION SWITCH
• The wait detection switch operates when there is circulating torque produced in the propeller shaft (L→H) or
when there is a phase difference between 2-4 sleeve and clutch drum (H →L). After the release of the circu-
lating torque, the wait detection switch helps provi de the 4WD lock gear (clutch drum) shifts. A difference
may occur between the operation of the 4WD shift swit ch and actual drive mode. At this point, the wait
detection switch senses an actual drive mode.
• The wait detection switch operates as follows.
- 4WD lock gear (clutch drum) locked: ON
- 4WD lock gear (clutch drum) released: OFF
• The wait detection switch senses an actual drive mode and the 4WD shift indicator lamp indicates the vehi-
cle drive mode.
ATP SWITCH
ATP switch detects if transfer case is in neutral by the position of the L-H shift fork.
NOTE:
Transfer case may be in neutral when shifting between 4H-4LO.
NEUTRAL-4LO SWITCH
The neutral-4LO switch detects that transfer gear is in neutral or 4LO (or shifting from neutral to 4LO) condi-
tion by L-H shift fork position.
Condition 4WD warning lamp
System normal OFF
Lamp check Turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON.
Turns OFF after engine start.
4WD system malfunction ON

Large difference in diameter of front/
rear tires Flashes slow (1 flash / 2 seconds)
(Continues to flash until the ignition switch is turned OFF)
High fluid temperature in transfer case Flashes rapidly (2 flashes / 1 second)
(Continues to flash until fluid temperature returns to normal)

TRANSFER FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The transfer fluid temperature sensor detects the trans fer fluid temperature and sends a signal to the transfer
control unit.
TRANSFER MOTOR
• The transfer motor drives the sub-oil pump to provi de proper lubrication and oil pressure control when the
vehicle is at standstill, during low-speed operations or is being driven in reverse.
• The main oil pump is operated by the driving force of t he mainshaft. In other words, sufficient oil pressure
buildup does not occur when the vehicle is at standsti ll or during low-speed operations. While the vehicle is
being driven in reverse, the main oil pump rotates in the reverse direction. Therefore the main oil pump does
not discharge oil pressure. During any of the above vehi cle operations, the transfer motor drives the sub-oil
pump to compensate for insufficient oil pressure.
• The transfer motor operates as follows:
- The motor relay turns OFF in the 2WD mode.
- The motor relay operates as described in the table below in modes other than the 2WD mode.
• 4WD shift switch, transmission range switch, Neutral-4LO switch, vehicle speed sensor and throttle position
sensor are used in conjunction with the transfer motor.
Transfer Motor Relay Operation
*: After 2.5 seconds have elapsed.
CLUTCH PRESSURE SOLENOID VALVE
The clutch pressure solenoid valve distributes front and rear torque in AUTO mode.
2-4WD SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE
The 2-4WD shift solenoid valve operates to apply oil pressure to the wet-multiplate clutch, depending on the
drive mode. The driving force is transmitted to the front wheels through the clutch so the vehicle is set in the
4WD mode. Setting the vehicle in the 2WD mode requires no pressure buildup. In other words, pressure force
applied to the wet-multiplate clutch becomes zero.

Integrates actuator motor and actuator position switch.

INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL
INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005149073
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
*: This signal is sent to the ECM through CAN communication line
This mechanism hydraulically controls cam phases c
ontinuously with the fixed operating angle of the intake
valve.
The ECM receives signals such as crankshaft posit ion, camshaft position, engine speed, and engine coolant
temperature. Then, the ECM sends ON/OFF pulse duty si gnals to the intake valve timing (IVT) control sole-
noid valve depending on driving status. This makes it po ssible to control the shut/open timing of the intake
valve to increase engine torque in low/mid speed range and output in high-speed range.
