PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
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 seat be lt , helps t o redu ce the r is k or sev erity of inj ury to the d river and fro nt pass enge r for certain
types of collisi on . Thi s s ys te m in cl udes seat belt switch inp uts an d du al stag e 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 ne ce ss ary t o se rv ice th e sy st em saf ely is i ncl u de d in the S RS and SB se ct i on of th is Ser vi ce Ma nual.
WARNING:
●To avoid rendering the SRS inoperativ e, which cou ld increase the risk of persona l 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 deale r.
●Improper maintenance , including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can le ad to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activati on of th e sy ste m. For removal of Spiral Ca ble an d Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.
●Do not use electrical test equipme nt on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring ha rnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange ha rnesses or
harness connectors.
ABS008G3
Precautions for Battery ServiceABS00B3Q
Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interference between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.
On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System of Engine and A/TABS00371
The ECM has an on bo ard diagnostic system. It wil l light up the malfunction in dicator lam p (MIL) to warn the
driver of a malfuncti on caus in g em is si on dete rioration.
CAUTION:
●Be sure to turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative battery cable before any
repair or inspection work. Th e open/short circuit of related sw itches, 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 the open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water, grease,
dirt, bent terminals, etc.)
●Certain systems and componen ts, especially those related to OBD, may use a new style slide-
locking type harness connector. For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG-63, "
NESS CONNECTOR" .
●Be sure to route and secure the harn esses properly after work. The interferenc e of the harness
with a bracket, etc. may cause the MIL to light up due to the short cir c uit.
●Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MIL to light up du e to the ma lfunc tio n of the EVAP system or fuel injection syste m,
etc.
●Be sure to erase the unn ecessa ry malfunction information (repairs complete d) from the E CM and
TCM (Transmission control module) before returning the vehicle to the customer.

PRECAUTIONS
PrecautionABS00372
●Always use a 12 volt battery as power source.
●Do not attempt to disco nne ct b atte ry c abl es while en gin e is
running.
●Before connecting or disconnectin g the ECM harnes s con-
nector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect battery
ground cable. Failure to do so may damage the ECM
because battery voltage is applie d to ECM even if ignition
switch is turned OFF.
●Before removing parts, turn ignition switch OFF and then
disconnect battery ground cable.
SEF289H

D
●Do not disassemble E CM.
●If a battery cable is dis connected, the memory will return to
the ECM value.
The ECM will now start to self-control at its initial value.
Engine operation can vary slightly when the terminal is disconnected. Howeve r, this is not an indication of a malfunction. Do not replace parts because of a slight variation.
●When connecting ECM harness connector, fasten it
securely with a lever as far as it will go as shown at right.
●When connec ting or disconnecting pin connectors i nto or
from ECM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or
break).
Make sure that there are not a ny bends or breaks on ECM
pin terminal, when connecting pin connectors.
●Securely connect ECM harness connectors.
A poor connection can cause an extremely high (surge)
voltage to develop in co il and condenser, thus resulting in
damage to ICs.
●Keep engine control system harness at least 10 cm (4 in)
away from adjacent harness, to prevent engine control system malfunctions due to receiving exter nal noise, degraded
operation of ICs, etc.
●Keep engine control system parts and harness dry.

ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
MIXTURE RATIO FEEDBACK CONTROL (CLOSED LOOP CONTROL)
PBIB0121E
The mixture ratio feedback system provides the best air-fuel mixture ratio for driveability and emission control.
The three way catalyst 1 can then better reduce CO, HC and NOx emissions. This system uses heated oxygen sensor 1 in the exhaust manifold to monitor if the engine operation is rich or lean. The ECM adjusts the
injection puls e wid th ac cordi ng to the sens or vo lta ge si gnal . For mo re inf ormat ion about he ated oxyge n sen sor
1, refer to EC-202
This stage is referred to as the closed loop control condition.
Heated oxygen sen sor 2 is locate d dow nstre am of the th ree way catalys t 1. Eve n if the swi tchin g cha racte ristics of heated oxygen sensor 1 shift, the air-fuel ratio is controlled to stoichiometric by the signal from heated
oxygen sensor 2 .
Open Loop Cont rol
The open loop system condition refers to when the ECM detects any of the following conditions. Feedback
control stops in order to maintain stabilized fuel combustion.
●Deceleration and acce leration
●High-load, high-speed operation
●Malfunction of heated oxyg en sensor 1 or its circuit
●Insuffi c ient activation of heated oxygen sensor 1 at low engine coolant temperat ure
●High engine coolant temperature
●During warm-up
●After shifting from N to D (A/T models)
●When starting the engine
MIXTURE RATIO SELF-LEARNING CONTROL
The mixture ratio feedback control system monitors the mixture ratio signal transmitted from heated oxygen
sensor 1. This feedb ack signal is then sent to the ECM. The ECM controls the basic mix ture ratio a s close to
the theoretical mixture ratio as possible. However, the basic mixture ratio is not necessarily controlled as originally designed. Both manufacturing differences (i.e., mass air flow sensor hot film) and characteristic changes
during operation (i.e., inj ector clogging ) directly affect mixture ratio.
Accordingly, the diffe r ence be t wee n t he b as ic a nd th eor et ica l mi xtur e rat i os is moni t ore d i n t his s yst e m. Thi s i s
then computed in terms of “injection pulse duration” to automatically compensate for the difference between
the two ratios.
“Fuel trim” refers to the feedback compensation value compared against the basic injection duration. Fuel trim
includes short term fuel trim and long term fuel trim.
“Short term fuel trim” is the sho rt-term fuel co mpensation u sed to maintain the mixture rati o at its theoret ical
value. The sig nal fr om he ated oxyge n sen sor 1 in dica tes wh ethe r the m ixtu re ra tio i s RIC H or LEA N comp are d
to the theoreti cal value . The sign al then tri ggers a red uction in fu el volume if the mixture rat io is rich, and an
increase in fuel volume if it is lean.
“Long term fuel trim” is overall fuel compensation carried out long-term to compensate for continual deviation
of the short t erm f uel tr i m f r om the ce nt ra l val ue. S uch de vi at ion wi l l occ ur du e to i nd i vi du al e ng in e differences,
wear over time and chan ge s in the usa ge env iron m en t.
. This maint ains the mixture ratio within the range of stoichiometric (ideal air-fuel mixture).

Two types of systems are used.
Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection System
Fuel is injected into e ach cylin der durin g each engine cycle a ccordi ng to the firing ord er. This system is use d
when the engine is running.
Simultaneous Multiport Fuel Injection System
Fuel is injected simultaneously into all six cylinders twice each engine cycle. In other words, pulse signals of
the same width are simultaneously transmitted from the ECM.
The six injectors will then receive the signals two times for each engine cycle.
This system is used when the engine is being started and/or if the fail-safe system (CPU) is operating.
FUEL SHUT-OFF
Fuel to each cylinder is cut off during deceleration or operation of the engine at excessively high speeds.

The ignition timing is controlled by the ECM to maintain the best airfuel ratio for every run ning conditi on of the engin e. The ignition tim ing data is stored in the ECM. This data forms the map sh own.
The ECM receives info rmati on such as th e inj ectio n pul se width a nd
camshaft position sensor signal. Computing this information, ignition
signals are transmitted to the power transistor.
e.g., N: 1,80 0 rpm, Tp: 1.50 ms ec

1.Check that throttle valve is fully closed.
2.Check PCV valve operati on.
3.Check that downstream of throttle valve is free from air leakage.
4.When the above three items check out OK, engine component parts and their installation condi-
tion are questionable. Check and eliminate the cause of the incident.
It is useful to perform EC-128, "
5.If any of the following condition s occur after the engine has started, eliminate the cause of the
incident and perform Idle air volume learning all over again:
● Engine stalls.
● Erroneous idle.

DTC AND 1ST TRIP DTC
The 1st trip DTC (whose number is the same as the DTC number) is displayed for the latest self-diagnostic
result obtained. If t he ECM memory w as cleared previously, and the 1st trip DTC did no t reoccur, the 1st trip
DTC will not be displayed.
If a malfunction is detected during the 1st trip, the 1st trip DTC is stored in the ECM memory. The MIL will not
light up (two trip detect ion logic ). If the sam e malfun ction is not detect ed in the 2nd tri p (meet ing the req uired
driving pattern), th e 1st trip DTC i s clear ed from th e ECM m emory. If the same malfunc tion is de tected i n the
2nd trip, both the 1st trip DTC and DTC are stored in the ECM memory and the MIL lights up. In other words,
the DTC is stor e d in t h e ECM m emo ry an d the MI L lig ht s u p whe n t he sa me m al f unct io n occu r s in t wo co ns ecutive trips. If a 1st trip DTC is stored and a non-diagnostic operation is performed between the 1st and 2nd
trips, only the 1st trip DTC will continue to be stored. For malfunctions that blink or light up the MIL during the
1st trip, the DTC and 1st trip DTC are stored in the ECM memory.
Procedures for clearin g the D TC and th e 1st t rip DTC from th e ECM memory are descri bed in EC-64, "
TO ERASE EMISSION-RELATED DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION" .
For malfunctions in which 1st trip DTCs are displayed, refer to EC-51, "
EMISSION-RELATED DIAGNOSTIC
INFORMATION ITEMS" . These items are required by legal regulations to continuously monitor the system/
component. In addition, the items monitored non-continuously are also displayed on CONSULT-II.
1st trip DTC is specified in Mode 7 of SAE J1979. 1st trip DTC detection occurs without lighting up the MIL and
therefore does not warn the driver of a malfunction. However, 1st trip DTC detection will not prevent the vehicle from being tested, for example during Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) tests.
When a 1st trip DTC is detected, check, print out or write down and erase (1st trip) DTC and Freeze Frame
data as specified in Work F low p r oc ed ure Step II, refer to EC-76, "

These DTCs are prescribed by SAE J2012.
(CONSULT-II also displays the malfunctioning component or system.)
No Tools
The number of blinks of the MIL in the Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-Diagnostic Results) indicates the DTC.
Example: 0340, 1148, 1706, etc.
These DTCs are controlled by NISSAN.
●1st trip DTC No. is the same as DTC No.
●Output of a DTC indicates a malfunction. However, GST or the Diagnostic Test Mode II do not indi-
cate whether the malfunction is still occurring or has occurred in the past and has returned to normal. CONSULT-II can iden tify mal function status as shown bel ow. Therefore, using CONSULT-II (if
available) is recommended.
A sample of CONSULT-II display for DTC and 1st trip DTC is shown below. DTC or 1st trip DTC of a malfunction is displayed in SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS mode of CONSULT-II. T ime data indicates how man y times
the vehicle was driven after the last detection of a DTC.
If the DTC is being detected currently, the time data will be [0].
If a 1st trip DTC is stored in the ECM, the time data will be [1t].

FREEZE FRAME DATA AND 1ST TRIP FREEZE FRAME DATA
The ECM records the driving conditions such as fuel system status, calculated load value, engine coolant temperature, short term fuel trim, long term fuel trim, engine speed, vehicle speed, base fuel schedule and intake
air temperature at the moment a malfunction is detected.
Data which are stored in the ECM memory, along with the 1st trip DTC, are called 1st trip freeze frame data.
The data, stored toge ther with the DTC da ta, are called freeze fr ame data and displaye d on CONSULT- II or
GST. The 1st trip freeze frame data can only be displayed on the CONSULT-II screen, not on the GST. For
details, see EC -111 , "
Only one set of freeze frame data (either 1st trip freeze frame data or 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 f rame data and it is upda ted each time a differe nt 1st trip DTC is det ected. Howev er, 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 up date the data.

SION-RELATED DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION" .
SYSTEM READINESS TEST (SRT) CODE
System Readiness Test (SRT) code is specified in Mode 1 of SAE J1979.
As part of an enhanced emissions test for Inspection & Maintenance (I/M), certain states require the status of
SRT be used to indicate whether the ECM has completed self-diagnosis of major emission systems and components. Completion must be verified in order for the emissions inspection to proceed.
If a vehicle is rejected for a State emissions inspection due to one or more SRT items indicating “INCMP”, use
the information in this Service Manual to set the SRT to “CMPLT”.
In most case s the EC M w il l a ut om atically complete its self-diagn os is c ycle during normal usage, and t he SRT
status will indicate “CMPLT” for each application system. Once set as “CMPLT”, the SRT status remains
“CMPLT” until the self-diagnosis memory is erased.
Occasionally, certain portions of the se lf-diagnostic test may not be completed as a res ult of the customer' s
normal drivin g pattern; the SRT will indicate “INCMP” for these items.
NOTE:
The SRT wil l also indicate “INCMP” if the self-diagnosis memory is erased for any reason o r if the ECM memory power supply is interrupted for several hours.
If, during the state e missions insp ection, th e SRT indicates “CMPLT” for all test items, t he inspecto r will continue with the emissions test. However, if the SRT indicates “INCMP” for one or more of the SRT items the
vehicle is returned to the cust omer untested.
NOTE:
If MIL is ON during the state emissions inspection, the vehicle is also returned to the customer untested even
though the SRT indicates “CMPLT” for all test items. Therefore, it is important to check SRT (“CMPLT”) and
DTC (No DTCs) before the inspection.

Required self-diagnostic items to set the SRT to “CMPLT”
SRT is set as “CMPLT” after self-diagnosis has been performed one or more times. Completion of SRT is
done regardle ss of whether the result is OK or NG. The set timing is different between OK and NG results and
is shown in the table below.

OK: Self-diagnosis is carried out and the result is OK.
NG: Self-diagnosis is carried out and the result is NG.
When all SRT related self-diagnoses showed OK results in a single cycle (Ignition OFF-ON-OFF), the SRT will
indicate “CMPLT”. → Case 1 above
When all SRT related self-diagnoses showed OK results through several different cycles, the SRT will indicate
“CMPLT” at the time the respective self-diagnoses have at least one OK result. → Case 2 above
If one or more SRT related self-diagnoses showed NG results in 2 consecutive cycles, the SRT will also indicate “CMPLT”. → Case 3 above
The table above s hows that the mi nimum number of cycles for setting SRT as “INCMP” is one (1) f or each
self-diagnosis (Case 1 & 2) or two (2) for one of self-diagnoses (Case 3). However, in preparation for the state
emissions inspection, it is unnecessary for each self-diagnosis to be executed twice (Case 3) for the following
reasons:
●The SRT will indicate “CMPLT” at the time the respective self-diagnoses have one (1) OK result.
●The emissions inspection requires “CMPLT” of the SRT only with OK self-diagnosis r esults.
●When, during SRT driving pattern, 1st trip DTC (NG) is detected prior to “CMPLT” of SRT, the self-diagno-
sis memory must be erased from ECM after repair.
●If the 1st trip DTC is erased, all the SRT will indicate “INCMP”.
NOTE:
SRT can be set as “CMPLT” together with the DTC(s). Therefore, DTC check must always be carried out
prior to the state emission inspection even though the SRT indicates “CMPLT”.
SRT Service Procedure
If a vehicle has failed the state emissions inspection due to one or more SRT items indicating “INCMP”, review

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MIL, 1ST TRIP DTC, DTC, AND DETECTABLE ITEMS
●When a malfunctio n is detected for the first time, t he 1st trip DTC and th e 1st trip freeze fra me data are
stored in the ECM memory.
●When the same malfun ction is det ected in two con secutive trips, the DTC and th e freeze frame data are
stored in the ECM mem ory, and th e MIL will come on. For details, ref er to EC-50, "
Logic" .
●The MIL will go off after the vehicle is driven 3 times with no malfunction. The drive is counted only when
the recorded driv ing pattern is met (as stored in the ECM). If another malfunction occurs while coun ting,
the counter will reset.
●The DTC and the freeze frame data will be sto red until the vehicl e is driven 40 times (dr iving pattern A)
without the same malfunction recurring (except for Misfire and Fuel Injection System). For Misfire and
Fuel Injection System, the DTC and freeze frame data will be stored unti l the vehicle is driven 80 ti mes
(driving pattern C) without the same malfunction recurring. The “TIME” in “SELF-DIAGNOSTIC
RESULTS” mode of CONSULT-II will count the number of times the ve hicle is driven.
●The 1st trip DTC is not displayed when the self-diagnosis results in OK for the 2nd trip.

Driving pattern C means the vehicle operation as follows:
The following conditions should be satisfied at the same time:
Engine speed: (Engine speed in the freeze frame data) ±375 rpm
Calculated load value: (Calculated load value in the freeze frame data) x (1±0.1) [%]
Engine coolant temperatur e (T) condition:
●When the freeze frame data shows lower than 70°C (158°F), T should be lower than 70°C (158°F).
●When the freeze frame da ta sh ows hig her tha n or equa l to 70 °C (158°F), T sh ould be hig her than or eq ual
to 70°C (158°F).
Example:
If the stored freeze frame data is as follows:
Engine speed: 850 rpm, Calculated load value: 30%, Engine coolant temper ature: 80°C (176°F)
To be satisfied with driving pattern C, the vehicle should run under the following conditions:
Engine speed: 475 - 1,22 5 rpm, Calcu lat ed lo ad va lue: 2 7 - 33 %, Eng ine cool ant te mper atur e: mo re tha n 70 °C

Trouble Diagnosis IntroductionABS0037Q
INTRODUCTION
The engine has an EC M to control majo r systems suc h as fuel control, ignition control, i dle air control system, etc. The ECM accepts
input signals from sensors and instantly drives actuato rs. It is essential that both input and output s ignals are proper and stable. At the
same time, it is important that there are no malfunctions such as vacuum leaks, fouled spark plugs, or other malfunctions with the engine.

D
It is much more difficult to d iagnose a incident that occ urs intermittently rather than continuously. Most intermittent incidents are
caused by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this case,
careful checking of sus pect ed circui ts may he lp prev ent th e repla cement of good p arts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the incidents. A road
test with CONSU LT-II (or GST) or a ci rcuit tester connected should
be performe d. Follow the Work Flow on EC-76
.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with a
customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The customer can supply good information about such incidents, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what condition s they o ccur. A Diagnostic Wo rkshe et lik e the exam ple
on EC-78
should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for conventional malfunctions first.
This will help t roubleshoot drive ability malfunct ions on an electro nically controlled engine vehi cle.

ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to be slow er than the norm al condition.
So, the acceleration will be poor.
(When electric throttle control actuator does not function properly due to the return spring
malfunction:)
ECM controls the electric throttle actuator by regulat ing the thro ttl e opening around the
idle position. The engine speed will not rise more than 2,000 rpm .
(When throttle valve opening angle in fail-sa fe mode is not in specified range:)
ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator by regulating the throttle opening to 20
degrees or less.
(When ECM detects the throttle valve is stuck open:)
While the vehicle is driving, it slows down gradually by fuel cut. After the vehicle stops,
the engine stalls.
The engine can restart in N or P position, and engine speed will not exceed 1,000 rpm or
more.

●When there is an open circuit on MIL circuit, the ECM cannot warn the driver by lighting MIL up when
there is malfunction on engine control system.
Therefore, when electrical controlled throttle and part of ECM related diagnoses are continuously detected
as NG for 5 trips, ECM warns the driver that engine control system malfunctions and MIL circuit is open by
means of operating fail-safe function.
The fail-safe function also operates when above diagnoses except MIL circuit are detected and demands
the driver to repair the malfunctio n.
