Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006349780
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:0000000006300446
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.

SYSTEM
FRONT WIPER AUTO OPERATION
Rain Detection
Rain level and sensor conditions are detected by light & rain sensor.
BCM transmits the vehicle conditions (vehicle speed, front wiper condition, rain sensor sensitivity setting,
etc.) to the light & rain sensor via the rain sensor serial link.
Light & rain sensor judges a wiping speed for front wi per by rain condition and the vehicle conditions. And it
transmits the wiping speed request signal to t he BCM via the rain sensor serial link.
Auto Wiping Operation
BCM receives the wiping speed request signal from the light & rain sensor via the rain sensor serial link.
BCM controls front wiper operation according to t he wiping speed request signals. And it transmits the front
wiper request signals (LO or HI) to the IPDM E/R via CAN communication line.
Front wiper AUTO operating condition
- Ignition switch ON
- Front wiper switch AUTO
NOTE:
When the front wiper switch is turned to AUTO positi on, front wiper operates once regardless of rainy condi-
tions.
Rain Sensor Sensitivity Setting
BCM determines rain sensor sensitivity according to wiper volume dial position.
NOTE:
When the wiper volume dial position is turned up by 1 level under front wiper AUTO operating condition, front
wiper operates once.
Splash mode operation
Front wiper is operated at HI regardl ess of the wiper volume adjustment position, when water drops are instan-
taneously sprayed over the windshield glass due to wate r splash from oncoming vehicles or other causes.
After that, AUTO operation is performed depending on the amount of water drops.
SPLASH MODE OPERATION CONDITIONS Front wiper switch AUTO
Ignition switch ON
NOTE:
Splash mode is not operated and auto wiping operati on is performed, while the vehicle is stopped.
FRONT WIPER AUTO STOP OPERATION
BCM stops transmitting the front wiper request signal when the front wiper switch is turned OFF.
IPDM E/R detects the front wiper stop position signal from the front wiper motor and detects the front wiper
motor position (stop position/except stop position).

When the front wiper request signal is stopped, IPDM E/R turns ON the front wiper relay until the front wiper
motor returns to the stop position.
NOTE:
BCM stops the transmitting of the front wiper request signal when the ignition switch is OFF.
IPDM E/R turns the front wiper relay OFF when the ignition switch is OFF.
FRONT WIPER OPERATION LINKED WITH WASHER
BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (LO) to IPDM E/R via CAN communication according to the
washer linked operating condition of the front wiper.
BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (LO) so that the front wiper operates approximately 2 times
when the front washer switch OFF is detected.
Washer linked operating condition of front wiper
- Ignition switch ON
- Front washer switch ON (0.4 second or more)
IPDM E/R turns ON the integrated front wiper rela y according to the front wiper request signal (LO).
The washer pump is grounded through the combinati on switch with the front washer switch ON.
FRONT WIPER DROP WIPE OPERATION
BCM controls the front wiper to operate once according to the conditions of front wiper drop wipe operation.
Front wiper drop wipe operating condition
- Ignition switch ON
- Front wiper switch OFF
- Front washer switch OFF
BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (LO) to IPDM E/R with CAN communication so that the front
wiper operate once three seconds after fr ont wiper operation linked with washer.
IPDM E/R turns ON the integrated front wiper rela y according to the front wiper request signal (LO).
WIPER LINKED AUTO LIGHTING FUNCTION
When light switch is in the AUTO position, front wiper operates, and then headlamp illuminates. Refer to EXL-
11 , "AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM : System Description (For CANADA)" or EXL-12, "AUTO LIGHT SYSTEM : Sys-
tem Description (Except for CANADA)".

IPDM E/R
When CAN communication with ECM and BCM is impossible, IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control. After CAN
communication recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.
