2011 INFINITI QX56 transmission fluid

TM-98
< BASIC INSPECTION >[7AT: RE7R01B]
A/T FLUID COOLER
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
NOTE:
Insufficient cleaning of the cooler inlet hose exte
rior may lead to inaccurate debris identification.
1. Position an oil pan under the A/T inlet and outlet cooler hoses.
2. Clean the exterior and tip of the cooler inlet hose.
3. Insert the extension adapter hose of a can of Transmission
Cooler Cleaner (Nissan P/N 999MP-AM006) into the cooler out-
let hose.
CAUTION:
 Wear safety glasses and rubber gloves when spraying the Transmission Cooler Cleaner.
 Spray Transmission Cooler Cleaner only with adequate
ventilation.
 Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
 Never breath vapors or spray mist.
4. Hold the hose and can as high as possible and spray Transmis- sion Cooler Cleaner in a continuous stream into the cooler outlet
hose until ATF flows out of the cooler inlet hose for 5 seconds.
5. Tie a common white, basket-type coffee filter to the end of the cooler inlet hose.
6. Insert the tip of an air gun into the end of the cooler outlet hose.
7. Wrap a shop rag around the air gun tip and end of cooler outlet hose.
8. Blow compressed air regulated to 5 to 9 kg/cm
2 (71 to 128 psi)
through the cooler outlet hose to force any remaining ATF into
the coffee filter.
9. Remove the coffee filter from the end of the cooler inlet hose.
10. Perform “INSPECTION PROCEDURE”.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. Inspect the coffee filter for debris.
a. If small metal debris less than 1 mm (0.040 in) in size or metal powder is found in the coffee filter, this is normal. If normal
debris is found, the A/T fluid cooler/radiator can be re-used and
the procedure is ended.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
1.PRECONDITIONING
If “DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE” is previously c onducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at
least 10 seconds before performing the next test.
>> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK DTC DETECTION
With CONSULT-III
1. Start the engine.
2. Select “SLCT LVR POSI” and “VHCL/S SE-A/T ” in “Data Monitor” in “TRANSMISSION”.
3. Drive vehicle and maintain the following conditions for 14 minutes or more.
4. Perform “Self Diagnostic Resu lts” in “TRANSMISSION”.
With GST
Follow the procedure “With CONSULT-III”.
Is
“P0710” detected?
YES >> Go to TM-107, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> INSPECTION END
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000006226807
1.CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to GI-40, "
Intermittent Incident".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Replace the control valve & TCM. Refer to TM-182, "Exploded View".

P0710 Transmission Fluid Tempera-
ture Sensor A Circuit TCM judges that the A/T fluid temperature is -40
°C (-40
° F) or less continuously for 5 seconds while driving at 10
km/h (7 MPH) or more.  Harness or connectors
(Sensor circuit is open.)
 A/T fluid temperature sensor
TCM judges that the A/T fluid temperature is 180 °C (356
° F) or more continuously for 5 seconds.  Harness or connectors
(Sensor circuit is short.)
 A/T fluid temperature sensor
TCM judges the following conditions while driving the ve-
hicle at 10 km/h (7 MPH) or more:
 The time required for A/T fluid temperature to rise by 1 °C (1.8 °F) exceeds 14 minutes when A/T fluid tem-
perature is -20 °C (-4 °F) or less.
 The time required for A/T fluid temperature to rise by 1 °C (1.8 °F) exceeds 7 minutes when A/T fluid tem-
perature is between -19 °C (-2 °F) and 0 °C (32 °F).
 The time required for A/T fluid temperature to rise by 1 °C (1.8 °F) exceeds 4 minutes when A/T fluid tem-
perature is between 1 °C (34 °F) and 20 °C (68 °F).  Harness or connectors
(Sensor circuit is stuck.)
