INSTRUMENT PANEL
Most incidents are caused by contact and movement between:
1. Cluster lid A and the instrument panel
2. Acrylic lens and combination meter housing
3. Instrument panel to front pillar finisher
4. Instrument panel to windshield
5. Instrument panel pins
6. Wiring harnesses behind the combination meter
7. A/C defroster duct and duct joint
These incidents can usually be located by tapping or moving the components to duplicate the noise or by
pressing on the components while driving to stop the noi se. Most of these incidents can be repaired by apply-
ing felt cloth tape or silicone spray (in hard to reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate wiring har-
ness.
CAUTION:
Do not use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or ra ttle. If you saturate the area with silicone, you will
not be able to recheck the repair.
CENTER CONSOLE
Components to pay attention to include:
1. Shift selector assembly cover to finisher
2. A/C control unit and cluster lid C
3. Wiring harnesses behind audio and A/C control unit
The instrument panel repair and isolation pr ocedures also apply to the center console.
DOORS
Pay attention to the:
1. Finisher and inner panel making a slapping noise
2. Inside handle escutcheon to door finisher
3. Wiring harnesses tapping
4. Door striker out of alignment causing a popping noise on starts and stops
Tapping or moving the components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. You can usually insulate the ar eas with felt cloth tape or insulator foam blocks from
the NISSAN Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-50397) to repair the noise.
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid bumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, se curing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sun visor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headlining and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
OVERHEAD CONSOLE (FRONT AND REAR)
Overhead console noises are often caused by the cons ole panel clips not being engaged correctly. Most of
these incidents are repaired by pushing up on the c onsole at the clip locations until the clips engage.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Explanation of Gene
ral MaintenanceINFOID:0000000012432243
General maintenance includes those items which shoul d be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operati ng properly. The owners can perform the
checks and inspections themselves or they can have their NISSAN dealers do them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.
Item Reference page
Tires Check the pressure with a gauge often and always prior to long distance trips.
Adjust the pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the specified pressure.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear. WT-54
Wheel nuts
When checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any loose
nuts. Tighten if necessary. WT-48
Tire rotation
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 miles (8,000 km). WT-45
Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS)
transmitter compo-
nentsReplace the TPMS transmitter grommet seal, valve core and cap when the tires
are replaced due to wear or age.
WT-53
Wheel alignment and
balanceIf the vehicle should pull to either side while driving on a straight and level road,
or if you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel
alignment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds,
wheel balancing may be needed. For additional information regarding tires, refer
to "Important Tire Safety Information" (US) or "Tire Safety Information" (Canada)
in the NISSAN Warranty
Information Booklet. WT-44
WT-45
Windshield
Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary. GW-12
Windshield wiper
bladesCheck for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly.
—
Doors and engine
hood Check that all doors and the engine hood operate smoothly as well as the back
door, trunk lid and back hatch. Also make sure that all latches lock securely. Lu-
bricate if necessary. Make sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from
opening when the primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check lubrica-
tion frequently. MA-40
MA-41
MA-42

Lamps
Make sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and oth-
er lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check headlamp
aim. Clean the headlamps on a regular basis. EXL-98

Windshield defroster
Check that the air comes out of the defroster outlets properly and in sufficient
quantity when operating the heater or air conditioning. —
Steering wheel Check that it has the specified play. Check for changes in the steering condition,
such as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in) ST-5

CVT Shift Selector (Park Position Switch)INFOID:0000000012430325
Park position switch detects that CVT shift selector is in the P (Park) position and then transmits the signal to
BCM and IPDM E/R.
BCM confirms the CVT shift selector position with the following 5 signals:
• P (Park) position signal from CVT shift selector (park position switch)
• P/N position signal from TCM
• P (Park) position signal from IPDM E/R (CAN)
• P/N position signal from IPDM E/R (CAN)
• P/N position signal from TCM (CAN)
IPDM E/R confirms the CVT shift selector position with the following 3 signals:
• P (Park) position signal from CVT shift selector (park position switch)
• P/N position signal from TCM
• P/N position signal from BCM (CAN)
BCMINFOID:0000000012430326
BCM controls INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM (ENGINE START FUNCTIO N), NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBI-
LIZER SYSTEM-NATS (NATS) and VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM.
BCM performs the ID verification between BCM and Intelligent Key when the Intelligent Key is carried into the
detection area of inside key antenna and push-button ignition swit ch is pressed. If the ID verification result is
OK, push-button ignition switch operation is available.
Then, when the power supply position is turned ON, BCM performs ID verification between BCM and ECM. If
the ID verification result is OK, ECM can start engine.
ECMINFOID:0000000012430327
ECM controls the engine.
12. Front door switch LH Door switch detects door open/close condi-
tion and then transmits ON/OFF signal to
BCM.
13. Rear door switch LH Door switch detects door open/close condi-
tion and then transmits ON/OFF signal to
BCM.
14. Inside key antenna (trunk room) Inside key antenna (trunk room) detects
whether Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle or
not, and then transmits the signal to the BCM.
Refer to SEC-10, "
Inside Key Antenna".
15. Inside key antenna (console) Inside key antenna (console) detects whether
Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle or not, and
then transmits the signal to the BCM.
Refer to SEC-10, "
Inside Key Antenna".
16. Push-button ignition switch Push-button ignition switch has push switch
inside which detects that push-button ignition
switch is pressed, and then transmits ON/
OFF signal to BCM. BCM changes the igni-
tion switch position with the operation of
push-button ignition switch. BCM maintains
the ignition switch position status while push-
button ignition switch is not operated.
17. NATS antenna amp. ID verification is performed between the BCM
and the transponder integrated into the Intel-
ligent Key via the NATS antenna amp.
18. Remote keyless entry receiver Remote keyless entry receiver receives but-
ton operation signal and key ID signal of Intel-
ligent Key, and them transmits them to the
BCM.
