PRECAUTION
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006274786
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.

BODY CONTROL SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006274789
OUTLINE
 BCM (Body Control Module) controls the various electrical components. It inputs the information required to
the control from CAN communication and the signal received from each switch and sensor.
 BCM has combination switch reading function for reading the operation status of combination switches (light,
turn signal, wiper and washer) in addition to a function fo r controlling the operation of various electrical com-
ponents. It also has the signal transmission function as the passed point of signal and the power saving con-
trol function that reduces the power c onsumption with the ignition switch OFF.
 BCM is equipped with the diagnosis function that perfo rms the diagnosis with CONSULT-III and various set-
tings.

SYSTEM
Low power consumption mode (BCM sleep)- Low power consumption control is active
- CAN transmission is stopped
LOW POWER CONSUMPTION CONTROL WITH BCM
BCM reduces the power consumption with the following operation in the low power consumption mode.
 The reading interval of the each switches changes from 10 ms interval to 60 ms interval.
Sleep mode activation
 BCM receives the sleep-ready signal (ready) from IPDM E/R, combination meter and automatic back door
control module via CAN communication.
 BCM transmits the sleep wake up signal (sleep) to each unit when all of the CAN sleep conditions are ful- filled.
 Each unit stops the transmission of CAN communication with the sleep wake up signal. BCM is in CAN com- munication sleep mode.
 BCM is in the low power consumption mode and perform the low power consumption control when all of the
BCM sleep conditions are fulfilled with CAN sleep condition.
Sleep condition
Wake-up operation
 BCM transmits sleep wake up signal (wake up) to eac h unit when any condition listed below is established,
and then goes into normal mode from low power consumption mode.
 Each unit starts transmissions with CAN communication by receiving sleep wake up signals. Each unit trans- mit wake up signals to BCM with CAN communication to convey the start of CAN communication.
