EXHAUST VALVE SOLENOID CIRCUIT
EXHAUST VALVE SOLENOID CIRCUIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005148184
Receives exhaust valve solenoid signal from suspension control unit. When activated, the exhaust valve sole-
noid releases air pressure from the suspension control system.
Component Function CheckINFOID:0000000005148185
1.CHECK EXHAUST SOLENOID OPERATION
CAUTION:
While operating this active test, the suspension control system will vent air pressure and the vehicle
ride height will lower. Ensure th e area around the vehicle is free fr om obstructions before beginning
test.
CONSULT-III
1. Ensure the suspension control system has air pressure and is not drooping in the rear.
2. Select "EXHAUST SOLENOID" of AIR LEVELIZER active test items.
3. While operating test item, check that the exhaust valve solenoid opens to vent air from the system. The vehicle should lower when the exhaust valve solenoid is activated.
Does the system vent properly?
YES >> Exhaust valve solenoid is operating normally.
NO >> Refer to SCS-24, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000005148186
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to SCS-29, "Wiring Diagram".
1.CHECK EXHAUST VALVE SOLENOID SIGNAL
CONSULT-III
1. Connect suspension control unit connector B3.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Select "EXHAUST SOLENOID" of AIR LEVELIZER active test
items.
4. While test item is operating, check signal between suspension
air compressor connector C9 terminal 2 and ground.
Is battery voltage present?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK CONTINUITY OF EXHA UST VALVE SOLENOID CIRCUIT
ON : Air vents and vehicle ride height lowers
OFF : No air vents and vehicle ride height remains constant

PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000005383225
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity 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 inopera tive, 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 unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified 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 Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c 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 minu tes before performing any service.
Precaution for Rear SuspensionINFOID:0000000005148201
• When installing the rubber bushings, the final ti ghtening must be done under unladen condition and with the
tires on level ground. Oil will shorten the life of the r ubber bushings, so wipe off any spilled oil immediately.
• Unladen condition means the fuel tank, engine coolant and lubricants are at the full specification. The spare tire, jack, hand tools, and mats are in their designated positions.
• After installing suspension components, check the wheel alignment.
• Caulking nuts are not reusable. Always use new caulking nuts for installation. New caulking nuts are pre-
oiled, do not apply any additional lubrication.
