Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006450052
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 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 whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the “SRS AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoper ative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision that would result in air ba g 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 “SRS AIR BAG”.
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 Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the
ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric 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.

Part Description
BCM Controls the exterior lighting system.
ECM*
1Transmits engine speed signal to AFS control unit. (via CAN communication)
TCM*
1Transmits Shift position signal to AFS control unit. (via CAN communication)
IPDM E/R Controls the integrated relay, and supplies voltage to the load according to the request
from BCM (via CAN communication).
AFS control unit*
1AFS control unit judges the vehicle condition from each signal. AFS control unit con-
trols AFS function and the headlamp aiming.
Combination meter Outputs the vehicle speed signal (8-pulse) to AFS control unit.
Blinks the turn signal indicator lamp and outputs the turn signal operating sound with
integrated buzzer according to the request from BCM (via CAN communication).
Turns the tail lamp indicator lamp and high beam indicator lamp ON according to the
request from BCM (via CAN communication).
Turns the AFS OFF indicator lamp ON/OFF /blinking according to the request from
AFS control unit (via CAN communication).

Swivel actuator*
1Refer to EXL-9, "FRONT COMBINATION LAMP : Swivel Actuator".
Height sensor*
1
The height sensor is installed to the front suspension member and rear suspension member.
The height sensor detects the suspension arm displacement as the vehicle height change.
The height sensor transmits the height sensor signal to AFS control unit.
NOTE:
The sensor angle of the unloaded vehicle position is the reference value.
Optical sensor Optical sensor converts the outside brightness (lux) to voltage and transmits the opti-
cal sensor signal to BCM.

OUTLINE
The lamp light source is by the arch discharge by
applying high voltage into the xenon gas-filled bulb instead
of the halogen bulb filament.
Sight becomes more natural and brighter because the amount of light are gained adequately and the color of
light is sunshine-like white.
The xenon bulb drops the amount of light, repeats blinking, and illuminates in red if the bulb reaches the ser-
vice life.
ILLUMINATION PRINCIPLE
1. Discharging starts in high voltage pulse between bulb elec- trodes.
2. Xenon gas is activated by curr ent between electrodes. Pale light
is emitted.
3. The luminous tube (bulb) temperature elevates. Evaporated halide is activated by discharge. The color of light changes into
white.
NOTE:
Brightness and the color of light may change slightly immediately after the headlamp turned ON until the xenon bulb becomes sta-
ble. This is not malfunction.
Illumination time lag may occur between right and left. This is not
malfunction.
PRECAUTIONS FOR TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Representative malfunction examples are; "Light does not turn ON", "Light blinks", and "Brightness is inade-
quate." The cause often be the xenon bulb. Such malf unctions, however, are occurred occasionally by HID
control unit malfunction or lamp case malfunction. S pecify the malfunctioning part with diagnosis procedure.
WARNING:
Never touch the harness, HID control unit, the inside and metal part of lamp when turning the head-
lamp ON or operating the lighting switch.
Never work with wet hands.
CAUTION:
Never perform HID control unit circuit diagnosis with a circuit tester or an equivalent.
Temporarily install the headlamps on the vehicle. Co nnect the battery to the connector (vehicle side)
when checking ON/OFF status.
Disconnect the battery negative terminal before di sconnecting the lamp socket connector or the har-
ness connector.
Check for fusing of the fusible link(s), open around connector, short, disconnection if the symptom
is caused by electric error.
NOTE:
Turn the switch OFF once before turni ng ON, if the ON/OFF is inoperative.
The xenon bulb drops the amount of light, repeats blinking, and illuminates in red if the bulb reaches the ser-
vice life.
Steering angle sensor*1Transmits steering angle sensor signal to AFS control unit. (via CAN communication)
Combination switch
(Lighting & turn signal switch) Refer to
BCS-7, "
COMBINATION SWITCH READING SYSTEM : System Descrip-
tion".
Door switch Inputs the door switch signal to BCM.
AFS switch*
1 Inputs the AFS switch signal to AFS control unit.
AFS switch is integrated in triple switch.
Headlamp aiming switch*
2Outputs the aiming motor drive signal to aiming motor.
Hazard switch Inputs the hazard switch signal to BCM. Part Description
