ILLUMINATION
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005929150
The control of the illumination lamps operation is dependent upon the position of the lighting switch. When the
lighting switch is placed in the 1ST or 2ND position, the BCM (body control module) receives input signal
requesting the illumination lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communicated to IPDM E/R (intelligent
power distribution module engine room) across CAN communication lines. CPU (central processing unit)
located in the IPDM E/R controls the tail lamp relay coil . This relay, when energized, directs power to the illu-
mination lamps, which then illuminate.
Power is supplied at all times
• to ignition relay, located in IPDM E/R,
• to tail lamp relay, located in IPDM E/R,
• through 15A fuse (No. 52, located in IPDM E/R) and
• through 20A fuse (No. 53, located in IPDM E/R)
• to CPU located in IPDM E/R,
• through 40A fusible link (letter g, located in fuse and fusible link box)
• to BCM terminal 70, and
• through 10A fuse [No. 8, located in fuse block (J/B)]
• to BCM terminal 57.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
• to ignition relay, located in IPDM E/R, and
• through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in fuse block (J/B)]
• to BCM terminal 38.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied
• through 10A fuse [No. 20, located in fuse block (J/B)]
• to BCM terminal 11.
Ground is supplied
• to BCM terminal 67
• through grounds M57 and M61
• to IPDM E/R terminals 39 and 59, and
• through grounds E15 and E24.
ILLUMINATION OPERATION BY LIGHTING SWITCH
With the lighting switch in the 1ST or 2ND positi on, BCM receives input signal requesting the illumination
lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communicat ed to IPDM E/R across CAN communication lines. CPU
located in the IPDM E/R controls the tail lamp relay coil, which, when energized, directs power
• through 10A fuse (No. 37, located in IPDM E/R)
• through IPDM E/R terminal 29
• to illumination control switch terminal 1
• to VDC OFF switch terminal 3 (with VDC)
• to audio unit terminal 9
• to front air control terminal 5
• to A/T shift selector terminal 3 (with 4-speed A/T)
• to CVT shift selector terminal 3 (with CVT)
• to hazard switch terminal 3
• to combination meter terminal 12
• to door mirror remote control switch terminal 16
• to combination switch (spiral cable) terminal 26 (with steering wheel audio control switches)
• to steering wheel audio control switches through combinat ion switch (spiral cable) terminal 18 (with steering
wheel audio control switches).
Ground is supplied
• to VDC OFF switch terminal 4 (with VDC)
• to illumination control switch terminal 3, and
• through grounds M57 and M61.
The illumination control switch controls illuminat ion intensity by varying the ground to the following
• through illumination control switch terminal 2
• to audio unit terminal 8
• to front air control terminal 6
• to A/T shift selector terminal 4 (with 4-speed A/T)
• to CVT shift selector terminal 3 (with CVT)

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint Syst
em (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000005928680
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 severity 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 w hether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SRS section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified 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 Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c 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 minu tes before performing any service.
Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000005928682
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
• After removing nuts and bolts, separate the mating surface, using Tool and remove old liquid gasket sealing.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
• Tap Tool to insert it (1), and then slide it by tapping on the side (2)
as shown.
• In areas where Tool is difficult to use, use plastic hammer to lightly tap the parts, to remove it.
CAUTION:
If for some unavoidable reason suitable tool such as screw-
driver is used, be careful no t to damage the mating surfaces.

NOTE:
Park vehicle on a level surface, wait 10 minutes and check the engine oil level.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and make sure the engine oil level is within
the range (A) as shown.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE
• Check engine oil for white milky appearance or excessive contamination.
• If engine oil becomes white, it is highly probable t hat it is contaminated with engine coolant. Repair or
replace damaged parts.

• Mating surface between cylinder head and camshaft bracket
• Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head
• Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover
• Crankshaft oil seals (front and rear)
• Oil filter (for intake valve timing control)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yoursel f, as engine oil may be hot.
• For engine oil pressure check the transaxle should be in “Park position” (A/T models) or “Neutral
position” (M/T models), and apply the parking brake securely.
1. Check engine oil level.
2. Remove engine under cover. Refer to EI-15, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch (2), and remove oil pressure switch (2) from the cylinder block (1) using

Precaution Necessary for Steering W heel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000005928695
NOTE:
• This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
• Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK ″ position.
• Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery pow er is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC ″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
