2021 NISSAN MAXIMA check engine

NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the
RCTA system will also stop working.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position, turn the en-
gine off and restart the engine. If the mes-
sage continues to appear, have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsO1for the BSW and
RCTA systems are located near the rear
bumper. Always keep the area near the ra-
dar sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tem-
porary ambient conditions such as splash-
ing water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused
by objects such as ice, frost or dirt ob-
structing the radar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstructing
the area around the radar sensors. Do not attach stickers (including transpar-
ent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint near the radar sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around
the radar sensors. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer if the area around
the radar sensors is damaged due to a
collision.

the ICC system will automatically be can-
celed, the chime will sound and the “For-
ward Driving Aids temporarily disabled
Front Sensor blocked See Owner’s Manual”
warning message will appear in the vehicle
information display.
Action to take
When the conditions listed above are no
longer present, the warning message will
no longer be available in the vehicle infor-
mation display and the system will operate
normally. If the “Forward Driving Aids tem-
porarily disabled Front Sensor blocked See
Owner’s Manual” warning message contin-
ues to be displayed, have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a

etc., or is obstructed, the ICC system will
automatically be canceled.The chime will sound and the “Forward
Driving Aids temporarily disabled Front
Sensor blocked See Owner’s Manual” warn-
ing message will appear in the vehicle in-
formation display.
Action to take
If the warning message appears, stop the
vehicle in a safe place, place the shif t lever
in the P (Park) position, and turn the engine
off. When the radar signal is temporarily
interrupted, clean the sensor area of the
