Precaution for Brake Control SystemINFOID:0000000012430822
• Just after starting vehicle after ignition switch is ON, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noise may be heard from engine compartment. This is a normal condition.
• When an error is indicated by ABS or another warning lamp, collect all necessary information from customer
(what symptoms are present under what conditions) and check for simple causes before starting diagnostic
servicing. Besides electrical system inspection, c heck brake booster operation, brake fluid level and oil
leaks.
• If tire size and type are used in an improper combinati on or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts, stop-
ping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
• ABS might be out of order or malfunctions by putting a radio (wiring inclusive), an antenna and a lead-in wire
near the control unit.
• If aftermarket parts (car stereo, CD player, etc.) have been installed, check for incidents such as harness pinches, open circuits, and improper wiring.
• VDC system may not operate normally or a VDC OFF indi cator lamp or SLIP indicator lamp may light.
- When replacing the following parts with parts other than genuine parts or making modifications: Suspension- related parts (shock absorber, spring, bushing, etc.), tire s, wheels (other than specified sizes), brake-related
parts (pad, rotor, caliper, etc.), engine-related parts (muffler, ECM, etc.) and body reinforcement-related parts
(roll bar, tower bar, etc.).
- When driving with worn or deteriorated suspension, tires and brake-related parts.
Precaution for Harness RepairINFOID:0000000012430823
• Solder the repair part, and wrap it with tape. [Twisted wire fray
must be 110 mm (4.33 in) or less.]
• Do not bypass the repair point with wire. (If it is bypassed, the turn- out point cannot be separated and the twisted wire characteristics
are lost.)

COMPONENT PARTS
Component Description
INFOID:0000000012430827
ABS Actuator and Electric Unit (Control Unit)INFOID:0000000012430828
Electric unit (control unit) is integrated with actuator and comprehensively controls VDC function, TCS func-
tion, ABS function and EBD function.
ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT)
• Brake fluid pressure is controlled according to signals from each sensor.
• If malfunction is detected, the system enters fail-safe mode.
ACTUATOR
The following components are integrated with ABS actuator:
Pump
Returns the brake fluid reserved in reservoir to master cylinder by reducing pressure.
Motor
Activates the pump according to signals from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
Motor Relay
Operates the motor ON/OFF according to signals fr om ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
Actuator Relay (Main Relay)
Operates each valve ON/OFF according to signals fr om ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

Switches the fluid pressure line to increase or hold according to signals from control unit.
ABS OUT Valve
Switches the fluid pressure line to increase, hold or decrease according to signals from control unit.
Cut Valve 1, Cut Valve 2
Shuts off the ordinary brake line from master cylinder, when VDC function and TCS function are activated.
Suction Valve 1, Suction Valve 2
Supplies the brake fluid from master cylinder to the pump, when VDC function and TCS function are activated.
Return Check Valve
Returns the brake fluid from brake caliper and wheel cyli nder to master cylinder by bypassing orifice of each
valve when brake is released.
Reservoir
Temporarily reserves the brake fluid drained from brake caliper, so that pressure efficiently decreases when
decreasing pressure of brake caliper and wheel cylinder.
Yaw rate/side/decel G sensor
Calculates the following information that affects the v ehicle, and transmits a signal to ABS actuator and elec-
tric unit (control unit) via communication lines:
• Vehicle rotation angular velocity (yaw rate signal)
• Vehicle lateral acceleration (side G signal) and longitudinal acceleration (decel G signal)
Pressure Sensor
Detects the brake fluid pressure and transmits signal to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
Wheel Sensor and Sensor RotorINFOID:0000000012430829
NOTE:
• Wheel sensor of front wheel is installed on steering knuckle.
• Sensor rotor of front wheel is integrated in wheel hub assembly.
• Wheel sensor of rear wheel is installed on back plate of rear brake.
• Sensor rotor of rear wheel is installed on rear brake drum.
• Never measure resistance and voltage value using a tester because sensor is active sensor.
• Downsize and weight reduction is aimed. IC for detection portion
and magnet for sensor rotor are adopted.
• Power supply is supplied to detection portion so that magnetic field
line is read. Magnetic field that is detected is converted to current
signal.
• When sensor rotor rotates, magnetic field changes. Magnetic field
change is converted to current signals (rectangular wave) and is
transmitted to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). Change
of magnetic field is pr oportional to wheel speed.
Stop Lamp SwitchINFOID:0000000012430830
Detects the operation status of brake pedal and transmits converted electric signal to ABS actuator and elec-
tric unit (control unit).
Steering Angle SensorINFOID:0000000012430831
Detects the following information and transmits steering angle signal to ABS actuator and electric unit (control
unit) via CAN communication:
• Steering wheel rotation amount
• Steering wheel rotation angular velocity
• Steering wheel rotation direction

SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
VDC/TCS/ABS
Symptom TableINFOID:0000000012430917
If ABS warning lamp and SLIP indicator
lamp turn ON, perform self diagnostic.
NOTE:
• 1: The ABS does not operate when the speed is 10 km/h (6 MPH) or less.
• 2: Under the following conditions, ABS is activated and vibration is felt when brake pedal is lightly depressed (just place a foot on it).
However, this is normal:
- When shifting gears
- When driving on slippery road
- During cornering at high speed
- When passing over bumps or grooves [approximately 50 mm (1.97 in) or more]
- When pulling away just after starting engine [at approximately 10 km/h (6 MPH) or higher] Symptom
