 PRECAUTION

PRECAUTION PFP:00011
A
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER” EKS009N6

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along B
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes 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 C
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 Man-
ual.
WARNING: D
● To 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 must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer. E
● Improper 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 SRS section. F
● 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.
G
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble Diagnosis EKS009N7

When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:

H
● Refer to GI-15, "How to Read Wiring Diagrams" .
● Refer to PG-4, "POWER SUPPLY ROUTING CIRCUIT" for power distribution circuit.
When you perform trouble diagnosis, refer to the following: I

System Description EKS009N9

UNIFIED METER CONTROL UNIT

● Speedometer, odometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, voltage gauge, and water tempera-
ture gauge are controlled by the unified meter control unit, which is built into the combination meter.
● Warning indicators are controlled by signals drawn from the CAN communication system, BCM (body con-
trol module), and components connected directly to the combination meter.
● Digital meter is adopted for odometer/trip meters*, as well as the A/T position indicator display.
*The record of the odometer is kept even if the battery cable is disconnected.
● Odometer/trip meters and A/T indicator segments can be checked in diagnosis mode.
● Meters/gauges can be checked in diagnosis mode.
NOTE:
Under the following conditions, the meters will perform a homing function. The meter pointers will move down
slightly and then move back to the resting position. This is a normal design condition.
● Approximately 60 seconds after turning the ignition switch from the ON to the OFF position
● If the battery is disconnected and then reconnected
Illumination control
The unified meter control unit outputs the speedometer, odometer/trip meters, tachometer, oil pressure gauge,
voltage gauge, A/T indicator, fuel and temperature gauge lighting when the ignition switch is turned on. When
the lighting switch is turned on, the illumination control switch can be used to adjust the brightness of the com-
bination meter illumination and the odometer/trip meters and meter illumination.

CONSULT-II display Malfunction
Malfunction is detected in CAN communication lines.
CAUTION:
CAN COMM CIRC [U1000] Even when there is no malfunction on CAN communication system, malfunction may be
misinterpreted when battery has low voltage (when maintaining 7V-8V for about 2 sec-
onds) or 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)] is removed.
Malfunction is detected when an erroneous speed signal is input.

VEHICLE SPEED CIRC [B2205] CAUTION:

Even when there is no malfunction on speed signal system, malfunctions may be misin-
terpreted when battery has low voltage (when maintaining 7V-8V for about 2 seconds).

"TIME" indicates the condition of the self-diagnosis results judged by each signal input.
● Normal: If the system is presently operating properly, but had a malfunction in the past, the time will indi-
cate "1-63".
● Malfunction: Soon after detecting malfunctions by self-diagnoses or current malfunction, "0" is indicated.
After the system returns to normal operating condition, every time the ignition switch is cycled (turned to OFF
from ON), a value of one is added to the counter (i.e. "1"→"2"→"3"···"63"). When the ignition switch is cycled
64 times, the result of the self-diagnoses will be erased. If a malfunction is detected again, "0" will be indi-
cated.

 BOARD COMPUTER

BOARD COMPUTER PFP:24810

A
System Description EKS00BNR

FUNCTION
The board computer can indicate the following items. B
● DTE (distance to empty)
● Trip distance
● Trip time C
● Average fuel consumption
● Average vehicle speed
D
DTE (DISTANCE TO EMPTY) INDICATION
The range indication provides the driver with an estimation of the distance that can be driven before refueling.
The range is calculated by signals from the fuel level sensor unit (fuel remaining), ECM (fuel consumption)
and the ABS actuator and electric unit (vehicle speed). The indication will be refreshed every 30 seconds. E
When fuel remaining is less than approximately 11.6 (3 1/8 US gal, 2 1/2 Imp gal), the indication will blink as
a warning. If the fuel remaining is less than approximately 9.6 (2 1/2 US gal, 2 1/8 Imp gal), the indication will
show "---". In this case, the display will change to the DTE mode even though the display is showing a different F
mode. When the battery is disconnected and reconnected, DTE mode will display "---" until the vehicle is
driven 0.3 miles (0.5 km).
TRIP DISTANCE G
Trip distance is calculated by signal from the ABS actuator and electric unit (vehicle speed). If trip distance is
reset, trip time will be reset at the same time.
H
TRIP TIME
Trip time displays cumulative ignition switch ON time. If trip time is reset, trip distance will be reset at the same
time.
I
AVERAGE FUEL CONSUMPTION
Average fuel consumption indication is calculated by signals from the ABS actuator and electric unit (vehicle
speed) and the ECM (fuel consumption). The indication will be refreshed every 30 seconds. J
AVERAGE VEHICLE SPEED
Average vehicle speed indication is calculated by running distance and running time. The indication will be
refreshed every 30 seconds. If average vehicle speed is reset, average fuel consumption will be reset at the DI
same time. After resetting, the display will show "---" for 30 seconds.
HOW TO CHANGE/RESET INDICATION
L
Indication can be changed in the following order by momentarily depressing the board computer switch.
Trip distance → dte → Average vehicle speed → Average fuel consumption → Trip time→.
Holding the switch for more than 1 second will reset the indication of the currently displayed mode (trip dis-
tance, trip time, average vehicle speed or average fuel consumption). M
NOTE:
After the display changes automatically, the indication can be changed to the next mode by pushing the board
computer switch.
