SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
DIFFERENCE IN APPEARANCE
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006256016
While the vehicle is stopped, the difference of vehicle height of right side and left side (between wheel center
and wheel arch) is 25 mm (0.98 in) or more.
Inspection ProcedureINFOID:0000000006256017
1.CHECK APPEARANCE
1. Visually check that the exterior parts (e.g. suspension spring) have no malfunctions.
2. Visually check tube and pipe for crush or oil leakage.
Is the check result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Repair or replace damaged parts.
2.CHECK CLOGGING OF ORIFICE IN PPMU
1. Install an oil pressure gauge (SST: KV40108000) (A) to oil injec- tion jack.
CAUTION:
Clean surrounding areas of oi l injection jack using steam
before starting oper ation, since there may be mud on it.
Clean oil pressure gauge (special service tool:
KV40108000) jack with steam before use.
Jack must be securely inserted until a click sound can be heard.
Pressure reducing valve (B) of the oil pressure gauge
must be closed.
2. Loosen needle valves A and C of PPMU by approximately 2 rotations for check changes in vehicle height.
CAUTION:
Never loosen the needle valve more than required.
3. Tighten needle valve A and C of PPMU to the specified torque after the inspection.
Does the vehicle height change 10 mm (0.39 in) or more?
YES >> For detailed inspection of clogging of orifice in PPMU, refer to SCS-27, "
Work Procedure".
NO >> INSPECTION END

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006256135
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.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wh eel Rotation after Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000006256137
NOTE:
Before removing and installing any control units, first tu rn the push-button ignition switch to the LOCK posi-
tion, then disconnect both battery cables.
After finishing work, confirm that all control unit connectors are connected properly, then re-connect both
battery cables.
Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If a DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnos is according to self-diagnosis results.
For vehicle with steering lock unit, if the battery is disconnected or discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
cannot be turned.
If turning the steering wheel is required with the batte ry disconnected or discharged, follow the operation pro-
cedure below before starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Turn the push-button ignition switch to ACC position. (At this time, the steering lock will be released.)
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock wil l remain released with both battery cables discon-
nected and the steering wheel can be turned.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.

PRECAUTIONS
5. When the repair work is completed, re-connect bot
h battery cables. With the brake pedal released, turn
the push-button ignition switch from ACC position to ON position, then to LOCK position. (The steering
wheel will lock when the push-button igniti on switch is turned to LOCK position.)
6. Perform self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top CoverINFOID:0000000006256139
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.

Never allow water and dust to enter the inside of air compressor.
Never disassemble the vehicle height sensor.

DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORKFLOW
YES >> GO TO 7.
NO >> Check harness and connectors based on the information obtained by interview. Refer to
GI-40,
"Intermittent Incident".
7.FINAL CHECK
With CONSULT-III
1. Check the reference value for “E-SUS”.
2. Recheck the symptom and check that the symp tom is not reproduced on the same conditions.
Is the symptom reproduced?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> INSPECTION END

Description
In general, customers have their own criteria for a pr oblem. Therefore, it is important to understand the
symptom and status well enough by asking the customer about his/her concerns carefully. To systemize all
the information for the diagnosis, prepare the inte rview sheet referring to the interview points.
In some cases, multiple conditions that appear simultaneously may cause a DTC to be detected.
