Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front sea t belt , helps t o redu ce th e r isk or s everi ty of injury to th e driv er an d front passenge r for c ertain
types of collisi on . Thi s s ys te m in cludes 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 whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information ne ce ss ary t o se rvi ce th e sy stem saf e ly is i nclu de d in th e SR S and SB se ct i on of th is Ser vic e Manual.
WARNING:
●To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could inc rease the ris k of personal inju ry 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 incorrec t removal and installation of the SRS , can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of th e sy ste m. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.
●Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors .

Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
ACS005W9
A
The Supplemental Rest raint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, us ed along
with a front seat belt, helps to redu ce th e risk or se verit y of i njury to the driv er and front passenge r for ce rtain
types of collision. This sys tem includes seat belt switch inputs and dual s tage front air bag modules. T he 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 whether 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 Manual.
WARNING:
●To avoid ren dering the SRS ino perative, whi ch could inc rease the ris k 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 rem oval and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury ca use d by unintentional activ atio n of the system. For re mo val of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.
●Do not use electrical test equipm ent on a ny circuit re lated to the SRS un less in structed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions for On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System of A/T and EngineACS005WA
The ECM has an on boa rd diagnos tic system. It wil l light up the m alfunction indicator la mp (MIL) to warn th e
driver of a malfunction causing emission deterioration.
CAUTION:
●Be sure to turn the ignition switch OF F and disc onnect the ba ttery cable from the nega tive termi-
nal before any repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid valves, etc. will cause the MIL to light up.
●Be sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector will
cause the MIL to light up due to an open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water, grease,
dirt, bent terminals, etc.)
●Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. Interference of the harness with a
bracket, etc. may cause the MIL to light up due to a short circuit.
●Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MIL to light up due to a malfunction of the EGR system or fuel injection system, etc.
●Be sure to erase the u nnecessar y malfunc tion i nformation (repairs complete d) from th e TCM and
ECM before returning the vehicle to the custom er.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle multiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability . Many electronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during opera tion (not independent). In CA N communication, cont rol units are connected with 2
communicatio n lines ( CAN H lin e, CAN L li ne) all owi ng a high ra te of in forma tion tr ans missi on wit h less wir ing.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only. For details, refer to LAN-21,

Lock-up Applied
●In the lock-up applied state, the torque converter clutch control valve is set into the locked state by the
torque converter clutch solenoid and lock -up apply pressure is genera ted.
In this way, the torque converter clutch piston is pressed and coupled.
SMOOTH LOCK-UP CONTROL
When shifting f rom the lock -up releas ed st at e to the lock- up ap plied st ate, the cur rent outp ut to the tor que converter clutch sole noid is controlled with the TCM. In this w ay, when shifting to the lock-up applied s tate, the
torque converter clutch is temporarily set to the half-clutched state to reduce the shock.
Half-clutched State
●The current output from the TCM to the torque converter clutch solenoid is varied to gradually increase
the torque con v erter clutch solenoid pressure.
In this way, the lock-up apply pressure gradually rises and while the torque convert er clutch pisto n is put
into half-clutc hed status, the to rque conv erter clutch piston ope rating pres sure is incr eased and the coupling is completed smoothly.
Slip Lock-up Control
●In the slip region, the to rque conv erter cl utch s oleno id c urrent is con troll ed w ith t he TCM to p ut it into the
half-clutched state. This absorbs the engine torque fluctuation and lock-up operates from low speed.
This raises the fuel efficiency for 4th and 5th gears at both low speed and when the accel erator has a low
degree of opening.

ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEMPFP:00028
IntroductionACS005WU
The A/T system has two self-diagnostic systems.
The first is the emission-related on board diagnostic system (OBD-II) performed by the TCM in combination
with the ECM. The malfunction is indicated by the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp) and is stored as a DTC in
the ECM memory but not the TCM memory.
The second is the TCM original self-diagn os is indic ated by the A/T CHECK indic at or la mp . The malfunction is
stored in the TCM memory. The detected items are overlapped with OBD-II self-diagnostic items. For detail,
refer to AT-95, "
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULT MODE" .
OBD-II Function for A/T SystemACS005WV
The ECM provides emission-related on board diagnostic (OBD-II) functions for the A/T system. One function
is to receive a signal from the TCM used with OBD-related parts of the A/T system. The signal is sent to the
ECM when a mal function occurs in the corre sponding OBD-related part. The other function is to ind icate a
diagnostic result by means of the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp) on the instrument panel. Sensors, switches
and solenoid valves are used as sensing eleme nts.
The MIL automatically illuminates in One or Two Trip Detection Logic when a malfunction is sensed in relation
to A/T system parts.
One or Two Trip Detection Logic of OBD-IIACS005WW
ONE TRIP DETECTION LOGIC
If a malfunction is sensed during the first test drive, the MIL will illuminate and the malfunction will be stored in
the ECM memory as a DTC. The TCM is not provided wit h such a memory function.
TWO TRIP DETECTION LOGIC
When a malfuncti on is sensed during the fi rst test drive, it is stored in the ECM memory as a 1st trip DT C
(diagnostic trouble code) or 1st trip freeze frame data. At this point, the MIL will not illuminate. — 1st trip
If the same malf unction as that experien ced during the first test drive is sense d during the second te st drive,
the MIL will illuminate. — 2nd trip
The “trip” in the “One or Two Trip Detection Logic” means a driving mode in which self-diagnosis is performed
during vehicle operation.
OBD-II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)ACS005WX
HOW TO READ DTC AND 1ST TRIP DTC
DTC and 1st trip DTC can be read by the following methods.
( with CONSULT-II or GST) CONSULT-II or GST (Generic Scan Tool) Examples: P0705, P0720 etc.
These DTC are prescribed by SAE J2012.
(CONSULT-II also di splays the mal functioning component or system.)
●1st trip DTC No. is the same as DTC No.
●Output of the diagnostic trouble code indicates that the indic ated circuit has a malfu nction. How-
ever, in case of the Mode II and GST , they do not indicate whether the malfunction is still occurring
or occurred in the past and returned to normal.
CONSULT-II can identify them as shown below, therefore, CONSULT-II (if available) is recommended.
A sample of CONSULT-II display for DTC and 1st trip DTC is shown
on the next page. DTC or 1st trip D TC of a malf unction is displaye d
in SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS mode for “ENGINE” with CONSULT-II. Time data indicates how many times the vehicl e w a s dri ve n
after the last detection of a DTC.

Freeze Frame Data and 1st Trip Freeze Frame Data
The ECM has a me mory function, whic h stores the driving c ondition such as fuel s ystem status, calcul ated
load value, engin e coolant temperature, short te rm fuel trim, long term fuel trim, engin e speed and vehicle
speed at the moment the ECM detects a malfunction.
Data which are stored in the ECM memory, along with the 1st trip DTC, are called 1st trip freeze frame data,
and the data, s tored to gether with t he DTC data, a re call ed freez e fram e data an d disp layed on CO NSULT-II
or GST. The 1st trip freeze frame data can only be displayed on the CONSULT-II screen, not on the GST. For
detail, refer to EC-137, "
CONSULT-II Function (ENGINE)" .
Only one set of freeze frame data (either 1st trip freeze frame data of freeze frame data) can be stored in the
ECM. 1st trip freeze frame data is stored in the ECM memory along with the 1st trip DTC. There is no priority
for 1st trip freeze fr ame data and it is update d each time a different 1st trip DTC is det ected. However, once
freeze frame data (2nd trip detection/MIL on) is stored in the ECM memory, 1st trip freeze frame data is no
longer stored. R eme mber, only one set of free ze fra me da ta can be stored in the ECM . The ECM has th e following pri orities to update the data.

Both 1st trip freeze frame data and freeze fr ame data (along w ith the DTC) are cleared when the ECM memory is erased.
HOW TO ERASE DTC
The diagnostic trouble code can be erased by CONSULT-II, GST or ECM DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE as
described followi ng .
●If the battery cable is disconnected, the diagnostic trouble code will be lost within 24 hours.
●When you erase the DTC, using CONSULT-II or GST is easier and quicker than switching the mode

If any malfunction occurs in a sensor or solenoid, this function controls the A/T to mark driving possible.
Vehicle Speed Sensor A/T (Revolution Sensor)
●Signals are input from two systems - from vehicle speed sensor A/T (revolution sensor) installed on the

How to Perform Trouble Diagnosis for Quick and Accurate RepairACS005X1
INTRODUCTION
The TCM receives a sign al fro m the vehi cle s peed sens or, accelerator pedal posi tion s ens or (thro ttle po siti on
sensor) or PNP switch and provides shift control or lock-up con trol via A/T solenoid valves.
The TCM also communicates with the ECM by means of a signal
sent from sensing elements used with the OBD-related parts of the
A/T system for malfu nction-diagnostic purpo ses. The TCM is capable of diagno si ng malfunctioning parts while the ECM ca n s t o re malfunctions in its memory.
Input and output signals must always be correct and stable in the
operation of the A/T system. The A/T system must be in good operating condition and be free of valve seizure, solenoid valve malfunction, etc.
SAT631IB
It is much more difficult t o diag nos e a error that oc curs intermit tent ly
rather than continuously. Most intermittent errors are caused by poor
electric connections or improper wiring. In this case, careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the replacement of good
parts.
A visual chec k on ly m ay not fi nd th e cau se o f the e rror s. A roa d tes t
with CONSULT-II (or GST) or a circuit tester connected should be
performed. Follow the AT-45, "
WORK FLOW" .
Before undertaking a ctual checks, take a fe w minutes to talk with a
customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The customer can supply good information about such errors, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what condit ions they occur. A “Diagnostic Workshe et” as shown on
the example (R efer to AT-46
) should be used.
