1ST ENGINE BRAKE PROTECTION CONTROL
Controls the engine brake so as not to make effective by turning the front brake solenoid output to OFF when
each solenoid becomes the electricity pattern of 1st engine brake during driving at the vehicle speed 25 km/h
or more in any positions other than “R” position and 1GR.
TCM HIGH TEMPERATURE PROTECTION CONTROL
Limit the accelerator opening and forcibly control the vehi cle to the low torque driving when the electronic sub-
strate in TCM reaches the high temperature.

AdjustmentINFOID:0000000006226792
CAUTION:
 Use only Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF. Never mix with other ATF.
 Using ATF other than Genuine NI SSAN Matic S ATF will cause deteri oration in driveability and A/T
durability, and may damage the A/T, which is not covered by the INFINITI new vehicle limited war-
ranty.
 When filling ATF, be careful not to sca tter heat generating parts such as exhaust.
 Always maintain the ATF temperature within between 35 °C (95 °F) and 45 °C (113 °F) while checking
with CONSULT-III when the ATF level adjustment is performed.

Inspection and JudgmentINFOID:0000000006226793
INSPECTION
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle
so that the A/T fluid temperature is 50 to 80°C (122 to
176 °F). Inspect the amount of AT F. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Start the engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D” position.
5. Gradually press down the accelerator pedal while holding down the foot brake.
6. Quickly read off the stall speed, and quickly release the accelerator pedal. CAUTION:
Never hold down the accelerator pedal for more than 5 seconds during this test.
7. Shift the selector lever to “N” position.
8. Cool down the ATF. CAUTION:
Run the engine at idle for at least 1 minute.
9. Repeat steps 5 through 8 with selector lever in “R” position.

1. Place selector lever in “P” position, and turn ignition switch ON (engine stop).
2. Check that selector lever can be shifted to other than “P” position when brake pedal is depressed. Also
check that selector lever can be shifted from “P” position only when brake pedal is depressed.
3. Shift the selector lever and check for excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.
4. Confirm that the selector lever stops at each pos ition by feeling the engagement when it is moved through
all the positions. Check whether or not the actual pos ition the selector lever matches the position shown
by the shift position indicator and the A/T body.
5. The method of operating the lever to individual positions cor- rectly is shown in the figure.
6. When selector button is pressed in “P”, “R”, or “N” position with-
out applying forward/backward force to selector lever, check but-
ton operation for sticking.
7. Confirm that the back-up lamps illuminate only when lever is placed in the “R” position. Confirm that the back-up lamps do not
illuminate when selector lever is pushed against “R” position in
the “P” or “N” position.
8. Confirm that the engine can only be started with the selector lever in the “P” and “N” positions. (With selector lever in the “P”
position, engine can be started even when selector lever is
moved forward and backward.)
9. Make sure that A/T is locked completely in “P” position.
10. When selector lever is set to manual shift gate, ma ke sure that manual mode is displayed on combination
meter.
In addition, a set shift position must be changed when t he selector lever is shifted to the “+” or “−” side in
the manual mode. (Only while driving.)
AdjustmentINFOID:0000000006379166
1. Shift selector lever in “P” position.
2. Loosen nut (1).

[ (A)].
4. Hold and push the control cable (3 ) in the vehicle front direction
[ (B)], and tighten the nut by hand with cable set in free condi-
tion.
CAUTION:
Be careful not put any load to manual lever.
NOTE:
Press control cable with a force of 9.8 N (approximately 1 kg, 2.2
lb).
5. Tighten nut to specified torque. Refer to TM-178, "
