2014 NISSAN TEANA flat tire

MWI-16
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >
SYSTEM
The LOOSE FUEL CAP message will display in the information display when the fuel-filler cap is not tightened
correctly. The message will turn off as soon as the EC M detects the fuel-filler cap is properly tightened. The
ECM provides a loose fuel cap signal to the combination meter via CAN communication.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING
This warning appears when the BCM detects low inflati on pressure or a system malfunction. The BCM sends
a signal to the combination meter via CAN communication to illuminate the low tire pressure warning lamp. In
addition, a warning message will be displayed in the vehicle information display.
DOOR OPEN WARNING
This warning appears when the ignition switch is ON and the door is open. The BCM receives a door switch
signal from the door open door switch. The BCM sends t he door switch signal to the combination meter via
CAN communication lines.
TRUNK OPEN WARNING
This warning appears when the ignition switch is ON and the trunk is opened. The BCM receives a trunk lamp
switch signal from the trunk lamp switch. The BCM s ends the trunk lamp switch signal to the combination
meter via CAN communication.
LOW FUEL WARNING
This warning appears when the fuel level in the fuel tank is less than approximately 4 US gal (15 L, 3.3 Imp
gal). A variable resistor signal is supplied to the combi nation meter from the fuel level sensor unit to determine
the amount of fuel in the fuel tank.
LOW WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID WARNING
When the windshield washer fluid level is low, the was her fluid level switch provides a ground signal to the
combination meter and the warning is displayed. Once fluid is added, the switch opens and the warning is no
longer displayed.
RELEASE PARKING BRAKE WARNING
When the parking brake is applied, the parking brake switch provides a ground signal to the combination
meter. When the vehicle speed is greater than 4 MPH (7 km/h), the message is displayed and the warning
chime sounds.
SHIFT POSITION INDICATOR
Displays the position of the shift selector based on signals received from TCM via CAN communication.
LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING
The low oil pressure warning appears in the information display when the combination meter receives a low
engine oil pressure signal from the ECM via CAN communication.
WARNING CHECK INDICATION
The combination meter can cause an interrupt on the information display to indicate a warning, based on sig-
nals received from each unit and switch.
Refer to Owner’s Manual for additional information display items.

PEDAL STROKE
1. Operate parking brake pedal with a force of 196 N (20.0 kg-f, 44.1 lb-f), make sure pedal stroke is within
the specified number of notches. (Check it by listening and counting ratchet clicks.)
2. When brake warning lamp turns ON, check that the pedal stroke is within the specified number of notches. (Check it by listening to the clicks of the ratchet.)
INSPECT COMPONENTS
• Make sure that the mounting conditions (loosenes s, backlash, etc.) of each component are normal.
• Check the following:
- Device assembly for bend, damage and cracks. Replace if necessary.
- Cables and equalizer for wear and damage. Replace if necessary.
- Parking brake switch. Replace if necessary.
AdjustmentINFOID:0000000009462913
ADJUSTMENT
1. Remove rear wheel and tire using power tool. Refer to WT-55, "Adjustment".
2. Insert a deep socket wrench onto adjusting nut. Rotate adjusting nut to fully loosen cable, and then release parking brake pedal.
3. Secure both disc rotors to hubs using wheel nuts so as not to tilt the disc rotors.
4. Remove both adjuster hole plugs installed on the disc rotors. Turn the adjusters in direction (A) using a suitable tool or a flat-
bladed screwdriver as shown, until disc rotors are locked. Turn
the adjusters in the opposite direction by 5 or 6 notches after
locking.
5. Rotate the disc rotors to make sure that there is no drag. Install the adjuster hole plugs.
6. Adjust parking brake cable with the following procedure.
a. Rotate the adjusting nut to adjust parking brake pedal operating force to 490 N (50.0 kg-f, 110.2 lb-f) just before a full pedal
stroke of 201.65 mm (7.94 in).
CAUTION:
Do not reuse adjusting nut after removing it.
b. When replacing parking brake cable, operate parking brake pedal 10 or more times with a full stroke of 201.65 mm (7.94 in).
c. Release the parking brake pedal and rotate the disc rotors to make sure there is no drag. Pedal stroke number of notches : Refer to

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000009951702
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. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of
this Service Manual.
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 NISS AN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including in correct 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 SR 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 three minutes before performing any service.
General PrecautionsINFOID:0000000009460673
• When installing each rubber part, final tightening must be carried out under unladen condition* with
tires on ground.
*: Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats in designated posi-
tions.
• After installing removed suspensi on parts, check wheel alignment.
• Do not jack up at the trailing arm and lateral link.

• When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening mu st be carried out under unladen conditions with tires
on ground. Oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.
- Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in designated positions.
• After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.
• Self-lock nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing. Since new self-lock nuts are pre-oiled,
tighten as they are.
