AIMING ADJUSTMENT SCREW
 Turn the aiming adjusting screw for adjustment.
 For the position and direction of the adjusting screw, refer to the figure.
NOTE:
A screwdriver or hexagonal wrench [6 mm (0.24 in)] can be used
for adjustment.
Aiming Adjustment ProcedureINFOID:0000000006213993
1. Place the screen. NOTE:
 Stop the vehicle facing the wall.
 Place the board on a plain road vertically.
2. Face the vehicle with the screen. Maintain 10 m (32.8 ft) between the front fog lamp center and the
screen.
3. Start the engine. Turn the front fog lamp ON. NOTE:
Shut off the headlamp light with the board to pr event from illuminating the adjustment screen.
CAUTION:
Never cover the lens surface with a tape etc. The lens is made of resin.
4. Adjust the cutoff line height (A) with the aiming adjus tment screw so that the distance (X) between the hor-
izontal center line of front fog lamp (H) and (A) becomes 200 mm (7.87 in).

If possible, drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated. Note any additional information on
the Diagnostic Worksheet regarding the conditions or lo cation of the noise. This information can be used to
duplicate the same conditions when the repair is reconfirmed.
If the noise can be duplicated easily during the test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to dupli-
cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all of the following items:
1) Close a door.
2) Tap or push/pull around the area where the noise appears to be coming from.
3) Rev the engine.
4) Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle “twist”.
5) At idle, apply engine load (electrical load, half-cl utch on M/T models, drive position on A/T models).
6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with a rubber hammer.
 Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs.
 If it is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the vehicle slowly on an undulating or rough road to stress the
vehicle body.
CHECK RELATED SERVICE BULLETINS
After verifying the customer concern or symptom, che ck ASIST for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) related
to the concern or symptom.
If a TSB relates to the symptom, follow the procedure to repair the noise.
LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE
1. Narrow down the noise to a general area. To help pinpoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool
(Chassis ear: J-39570, engine ear, and mechanics stethoscope).
2. Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the cause of the noise by:
 Removing the component(s) in the area that is / are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
Do not use too much force when removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fasteners can be broken
or lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new noise.
 Tapping or pushing/pulling the component(s) that is / are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
Do not tap or push/pull the component(s) with excessive force, otherwise the noise is eliminated only tempo-
rarily.
 Feeling for a vibration by hand by touching the component(s ) that is / are suspected to be the cause of the
noise.
 Placing a piece of paper between components that are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
 Looking for loose components and contact marks. Refer to EXT-8, "
Inspection Procedure".
REPAIR THE CAUSE
 If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component securely.
 If the cause is insufficient clearance between components:
- Separate components by repositioning or loosening and retightening the components, if possible.
- Insulate components with a suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth tape, or ure-
thane tape. A NISSAN Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) is available through the authorized NISSAN Parts
Department.
CAUTION:
Never use excessive force as many components are constructed of plastic and may be damaged.
NOTE:
Always check with the Parts Department for the latest parts information.
The following materials are contained in the NISSA N Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980). Each item can be
ordered separately as needed.

General PrecautionsINFOID:0000000006289679
WARNING:
When replacing fuel line parts, be sure to observe the following.
• Put a “CAUTION: FLAMMABLE” sign in the workshop.
 Be sure to work in a well ventilate d area and furnish workshop with a CO
2 fire extinguisher.
 Never smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep open flames and sparks away from the work area.
CAUTION:
 Use gasoline required by the regulations for octane number. Refer to GI-31, "
Fuel".
 Before removing fuel line parts, perform out the following procedures:
- Put drained fuel in an explosi on-proof container and put the lid on securely. Keep the container in
safe area.
- Release fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-153, "
Work Procedure".
- Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
 Always replace O-rings with new ones.
 Never kink or twist tubes when they are being installed.
 Never tighten hose clamps excessi vely to avoid damaging hoses.
 After installing tubes, check there is no fuel leakage at connections in the following steps.
- Apply fuel pressure to fuel lin es with turning ignition switch “O N” (with engine stopped). Then check
for fuel leakage at connections.
- Start engine and rev it up and check for fuel leakage at connections.
 Use only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler cap as a replacemen t. If an incorrect fuel filler cap is used, the
“MIL” may come on.
 For servicing “Evaporative Emission System” parts.
Refer to EC-16, "
Component Parts Location".
