Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
QG18DE (EXC CALIF CA)
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 seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of
collision. The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL B15 is as follows:
쐌For a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the steering wheel), front passenger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on passenger side), front seat
belt pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
쐌For a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of front side air bag module (located in the outer side of front
seat), side air bag (satellite) sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a frontal
collision), wiring harness, warning lamp (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the RS section of this Service Manual.
WARNING:
쐌To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance should be performed by an authorized NISSAN dealer.
쐌Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the RS section.
쐌Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.

Precautions for On Board Diagnostic (OBD)
System of Engine and A/T
The PCM has an on board diagnostic system. It will light up the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) to warn the
driver of a malfunction causing emission deterioration.
CAUTION:
쐌Be sure to turn the ignition switch “OFF” and disconnect the negative battery terminal before any
repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid valves, etc.
will cause the MIL to light up.
쐌Be 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.)
쐌Certain systems and components, especially those related to OBD, may use a new style slide-
locking type harness connector.
For description and how to disconnect, refer to EL section, “Description”, “HARNESS CONNECTOR”.
쐌Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. The interference of the harness with
a bracket, etc. may cause the MIL to light up due to the short circuit.
쐌Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MIL to light up due to the malfunction of the EGR system or fuel injection system,
etc.
쐌Be sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the PCM (self-
diagnostic results of engine and the A/T) before returning the vehicle to the customer.

Precautions
쐌Always use a 12 volt battery as power source.
쐌Do not attempt to disconnect battery cables while engine
is running.
쐌Before connecting or disconnecting the PCM harness
connector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect negative battery terminal. Failure to do so may damage the
PCM because battery voltage is applied to PCM even if
ignition switch is turned off.
쐌Before removing parts, turn off ignition switch and then
disconnect battery ground cable.
쐌Do not disassemble PCM.
쐌If a battery terminal is disconnected, the memory will
return to the PCM value.
The PCM will now start to self-control at its initial value.
Engine operation can vary slightly when the terminal is
disconnected. However, this is not an indication of a problem. Do not replace parts because of a slight variation.
쐌When connecting PCM harness connector, fasten it
securely with a lever as far as it will go, as shown at left.

Make sure that there are not any bends or breaks on PCM
pin terminals when connecting pin connectors.
쐌Securely connect PCM harness connectors.
A Poor connection can cause an extremely high (surge)
voltage to develop in coil and condenser, thus resulting in
damage to ICs.
쐌Keep PCM harness at least 10 cm (4 in) away from adja-
cent harness, to prevent a PCM system malfunctions due
to receiving external noise, degraded operation of ICs, etc.
쐌Keep PCM parts and harness dry.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
QG18DE (EXC CALIF CA)
Mixture Ratio Feedback Control (Closed loop control)
NIEC0014S04
SEF503YA
The mixture ratio feedback system provides the best air-fuel mixture ratio for driveability and emission control. The three way catalyst can then better reduce CO, HC and NOx emissions. This system uses a heated
oxygen sensor 1 (front) in the exhaust manifold to monitor if the engine operation is rich or lean. The PCM
adjusts the injection pulse width according to the sensor voltage signal. For more information about the heated
oxygen sensor 1 (front), refer to EC-218. This maintains the mixture ratio within the range of stoichiometric
(ideal air-fuel mixture).
This stage is referred to as the closed loop control condition.
Heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear) is located downstream of the three way catalyst. Even if the switching characteristics of the heated oxygen sensor 1 (front) shift, the air-fuel ratio is controlled to stoichiometric by the
signal from the heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear).
Open Loop Control
NIEC0014S05
The open loop system condition refers to when the PCM detects any of the following conditions. Feedback
control stops in order to maintain stabilized fuel combustion.
쐌Deceleration and acceleration
쐌High-load, high-speed operation
쐌Malfunction of heated oxygen sensor 1 (front) or its circuit
쐌Insufficient activation of heated oxygen sensor 1 (front) at low engine coolant temperature
쐌High engine coolant temperature
쐌During warm-up
쐌When starting the engine
Mixture Ratio Self-learning Control
NIEC0014S06
The mixture ratio feedback control system monitors the mixture ratio signal transmitted from the heated oxygen sensor 1 (front). This feedback signal is then sent to the PCM. The PCM controls the basic mixture ratio
as 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., injector clogging) directly affect mixture ratio.
Accordingly, the difference between the basic and theoretical mixture ratios is monitored in this system. This
is 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 short-term fuel compensation used to maintain the mixture ratio at its theoretical
value. The signal from the heated oxygen sensor 1 (front) indicates whether the mixture ratio is RICH or LEAN
compared to the theoretical value. The signal then triggers a reduction in fuel volume if the mixture ratio 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 term fuel trim from the central value. Such deviation will occur due to individual engine differences,
wear over time and changes in the usage environment.

The ignition timing is controlled by the PCM to maintain the best air-fuel ratio for every running condition of
the engine. The ignition timing data is stored in the PCM. This data forms the map shown above.
The PCM receives information such as the injection pulse width and camshaft position sensor (PHASE) signal. Computing this information, ignition signals are transmitted to the power transistor.
e.g.,N: 1,800 rpm, Tp: 1.50 msec
A°BTDC
During the following conditions, the ignition timing is revised by the PCM according to the other data stored
in the PCM.
The knock sensor retard system is designed only for emergencies. The basic ignition timing is programmed
within the anti-knocking zone, if recommended fuel is used under dry conditions. The retard system does not
operate under normal driving conditions.
If engine knocking occurs, the knock sensor monitors the condition. The signal is transmitted to the PCM. The
PCM retards the ignition timing to eliminate the knocking condition.

The fuel vapor in the sealed fuel tank is led into the EVAP canister which contains activated carbon and the
vapor is stored there when the engine is not operating or when refueling to the fuel tank.
The vapor in the EVAP canister is purged by the air through the purge line to the intake manifold when the
engine is operating.

ON BOARD REFUELING VAPOR RECOVERY (ORVR)
System Description
From the beginning of refueling, the fuel tank pressure goes up. When the pressure reaches the setting value
of the refueling control valve (RCV) opening pressure, the RCV is opened.After RCV opens, the air and vapor
inside the fuel tank go through refueling EVAP vapor cut valve, RCV and refueling vapor line to the EVAP
canister. The vapor is absorbed by the EVAP canister and the air is released to the atmosphere.
When the refueling has reached the full level of the fuel tank, the refueling EVAP vapor cut valve is closed
and refueling is stopped because of auto shut-off. The vapor which was absorbed by the EVAP canister is
purged during driving.
The RCV is always closed during driving and the evaporative emission control system is operated the same
as conventional system.
WARNING:
When conducting inspections below, be sure to observe the following:

Positive Crankcase Ventilation
DESCRIPTION
SEF665U
NIEC0022
FE
CL
MT
AT
AX
SU
BR
ST
RS
SEF921W
This system returns blow-by gas to the intake collector.
The positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve is provided to conduct crankcase blow-by gas to the intake
manifold.
During partial throttle operation of the engine, the intake manifold sucks the blow-by gas through the PCV
valve.
Normally, the capacity of the valve is sufficient to handle any blow-by and a small amount of ventilating air.
The ventilating air is then drawn from the air duct into the crankcase. In this process the air passes through
the hose connecting air inlet tubes to rocker cover.
Under full-throttle condition, the manifold vacuum is insufficient to draw the blow-by flow through the valve.
The flow goes through the hose connection in the reverse direction.
On vehicles with an excessively high blow-by, the valve does not meet the requirement. This is because some
of the flow will go through the hose connection to the intake collector under all conditions.
With engine running at idle, remove PCV valve from rocker cover.
A properly working valve makes a hissing noise as air passes
through it. A strong vacuum should be felt immediately when a finger is placed over the valve inlet.

DESCRIPTION
QG18DE (EXC CALIF CA)
Emission-related Diagnostic Information
DTC AND 1ST TRIP DTC
NIEC0031
NIEC0031S01
The 1st trip DTC (whose number is the same as the DTC number) is displayed for the latest self-diagnostic
result obtained. If the PCM memory was cleared previously, and the 1st trip DTC did not 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 PCM memory. The MIL will not
light up (two trip detection logi0319c). If the same malfunction is not detected in the 2nd trip (meeting the
required driving pattern), the 1st trip DTC is cleared from the PCM memory. If the same malfunction is detected
in the 2nd trip, both the 1st trip DTC and DTC are stored in the PCM memory and the MIL lights up. In other
words, the DTC is stored in the PCM memory and the MIL lights up when the same malfunction occurs in two
consecutive 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 PCM memory.
Procedures for clearing the DTC and the 1st trip DTC from the PCM memory are described in “HOW TO
ERASE EMISSION-RELATED DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION”, EC-98.
For malfunctions in which 1st trip DTCs are displayed, refer to EC-96. 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 problem. 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 Flow” procedure Step II, refer to EC-129. Then perform “DTC Confirmation Procedure” or “Overall Function Check” to try to duplicate the problem. If the malfunction is duplicated, the item
requires repair.
How to Read DTC and 1st Trip DTC
NIEC0031S0101
DTC and 1st trip DTC can be read by the following methods.
With CONSULT-II
With GST
CONSULT-II or GST (Generic Scan Tool) Examples: P0340, P1320, P0705, P0750, etc.
These DTCs are prescribed by SAE J2012.
(CONSULT-II also displays the malfunctioning component or system.)
쐌1st trip DTC No. is the same as DTC No.
쐌Output of a DTC indicates a malfunction. However, GST does not indicate whether the malfunction
is still occurring or has occurred in the past and has returned to normal. CONSULT-II can identify
malfunction status as shown below. 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. Time data indicates how many 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 PCM, the time data will be “[1t]”.
SEF698X
FREEZE FRAME DATA AND 1ST TRIP FREEZE FRAME DATA
NIEC0031S02
The PCM 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 and absolute pressure at
the moment a malfunction is detected.
Data which are stored in the PCM memory, along with the 1st trip DTC, are called 1st trip freeze frame data.
EC-86
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Emission-related Diagnostic Information (Cont’d)
The data, stored together with the DTC data, are called freeze frame data and displayed 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-112.
Only one set of freeze frame data (either 1st trip freeze frame data or freeze frame data) can be stored in the
PCM. 1st trip freeze frame data is stored in the PCM memory along with the 1st trip DTC. There is no priority for 1st trip freeze frame data and it is updated each time a different 1st trip DTC is detected. However, once
freeze frame data (2nd trip detection/MIL on) is stored in the PCM memory, 1st trip freeze frame data is no
longer stored. Remember, only one set of freeze frame data can be stored in the PCM. The PCM has the following priorities to update the data.
PriorityItems
1
2Except the above items (Includes A/T related items)
31st trip freeze frame data
Freeze frame dataMisfire — DTC: P0300 - P0304
Fuel Injection System Function — DTC: P0171, P0172
QG18DE (EXC CALIF CA)
GI
MA
EM
LC
For example, the EGR malfunction (Priority: 2) was detected and the freeze frame data was stored in the 2nd
trip. After that when the misfire (Priority: 1) is detected in another trip, the freeze frame data will be updated
from the EGR malfunction to the misfire. The 1st trip freeze frame data is updated each time a different malfunction is detected. There is no priority for 1st trip freeze frame data. However, once freeze frame data is
stored in the PCM memory, 1st trip freeze data is no longer stored (because only one freeze frame data or
1st trip freeze frame data can be stored in the PCM). If freeze frame data is stored in the PCM memory and
freeze frame data with the same priority occurs later, the first (original) freeze frame data remains unchanged
in the PCM memory.
Both 1st trip freeze frame data and freeze frame data (along with the DTCs) are cleared when the PCM
memory is erased. Procedures for clearing the PCM memory are described in “HOW TO ERASE EMISSIONRELATED DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION”, EC-98.
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 PCM 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 cases the PCM will automatically complete its self-diagnosis cycle during normal usage, and the 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 self-diagnostic test may not be completed as a result of the customer’s
normal driving pattern; the SRT will indicate “INCMP” for these items.
NOTE:
The SRT will also indicate “INCMP” if the self-diagnosis memory is erased for any reason or if the PCM
memory power supply is interrupted for several hours.
If, during the state emissions inspection, the SRT indicates “CMPLT” for all test items, the inspector 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 customer 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.

SRT Set Timing
=NIEC0031S0308
SRT is set as “CMPLT” after self-diagnosis has been performed one or more times. Completion of SRT is done
regardless 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.
—: Self-diagnosis is not carried out.
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 shows that the minimum number of cycles for setting SRT as “INCMP” is one (1) for each
self-diagnosis (Case1&2)ortwo(2)foroneofself-diagnoses (Case 3). However, in preparation for the state
emissions inspection, it is unnecessary of each self-diagnosis to be executed twice (Case 3) for the following
reasons:
쐌The SRT will indicate “CMPLT” at the time the respective self-diagnoses have one (1) OK result.
쐌The emissions inspection requires “CMPLT” of the SRT only with OK self-diagnosis results.
쐌When, during SRT driving pattern, 1st trip DTC (NG) is detected prior to “CMPLT” of SRT, the self-diag-
nosis memory must be erased from PCM after repair.
쐌If 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”.

Emission-related Diagnostic Information (Cont’d)
쐌The time required for each diagnosis varies with road surface conditions, weather, altitude, individual driv-
ing habits, etc.
Zone A refers to the range where the time required, for the diagnosis under normal conditions*, is the
shortest.
Zone B refers to the range where the diagnosis can still be performed if the diagnosis is not completed
within zone A.
*: Normal conditions refer to the following:
−Sea level
−Flat road
−Ambient air temperature: 20 - 30°C(68-86°F)
−Diagnosis is performed as quickly as possible under normal conditions.
Under different conditions [For example: ambient air temperature other than 20 - 30°C(68-86°F)], diag-
nosis may also be performed.
Pattern 1:
쐌The engine is started at the engine coolant temperature of −10 to 35°C (14 to 95°F)
(where the voltage between the PCM terminals 70 and 58 is 3.0 - 4.3V).
쐌The engine must be operated at idle speed until the engine coolant temperature is greater than 70°C
(158°F) (where the voltage between the PCM terminals 70 and 58 is lower than 1.4V).
쐌The engine is started at the fuel tank temperature of warmer than 0°C (32°F) (where the voltage
between the PCM terminal 82 and ground is less than 4.1V).
Pattern 2:
쐌When steady-state driving is performed again even after it is interrupted, each diagnosis can be conducted.
In this case, the time required for diagnosis may be extended.
Pattern 3:
쐌The driving pattern outlined in *2 must be repeated at least 3 times.
Pattern 4:
쐌Tests are performed after the engine has been operated for at least 17 minutes.
쐌The accelerator pedal must be held very steady during steady-state driving.
쐌If the accelerator pedal is moved, the test must be conducted all over again.
*1: Depress the accelerator pedal until vehicle speed is 90 km/h (56 MPH), then release the accelerator pedal
and keep it released for more than 10 seconds. Depress the accelerator pedal until vehicle speed is 90 km/h
(56 MPH) again.
*2: Operate the vehicle in the following driving pattern.
1) Decelerate vehicle to 0 km/h (0 MPH) and let engine idle.
2) Repeat driving pattern shown below at least 10 times.
쐌During acceleration, hold the accelerator pedal as steady as possible.
3) Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the EGR system SRT is set.

only to erase the DTC.)
3. Select Mode 4 with GST (Generic Scan Tool).
The emission related diagnostic information in the PCM can be erased by selecting Mode 4 with GST.
쐌If the battery is disconnected, the emission-related diagnostic information will be lost after approx.
24 hours.
쐌The following data are cleared when the PCM memory is erased.
1) Diagnostic trouble codes
2) 1st trip diagnostic trouble codes
3) Freeze frame data

TION” is displayed on “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” screen, perform self-diagnostic results mode with
CONSULT-IIusing NATS program card. Refer to EL-306, “NVIS (NISSAN VehicleImmobilizer System
— NATS)”.
쐌Confirm no self-diagnostic results of NVIS (NATS) are displayed before touching “ERASE” in
“SELF-DIAG RESULTS” mode with CONSULT-II.
쐌When replacing PCM, initialization of NVIS (NATS) system and registration of all NVIS (NATS) igni-
tion key IDs must be carried out with CONSULT-II using NATS program card.
Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle owner. Regarding the procedures of NVIS (NATS)
initialization and NVIS (NATS) ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT-II OPERATION
MANUAL IVIS/NVIS.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
DESCRIPTION
SEF217U
The MIL is located on the instrument panel.
1. The MIL will light up when the ignition switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
쐌If the MIL does not light up, refer to EL-105, “WARNING LAMPS” or see EC-698.
2. When the engine is started, the MIL should go off.
If the MIL remains on, the on board diagnostic system has detected an engine system malfunction.
