PRECAUTIONS PFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER” ACS003KX
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
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
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:
●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.
●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.
●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 TCM and CVT Assembly Replacement ACS001SA
CAUTION:
●Check if new data (Unit ID) are entered correctly after replacing CVT assembly and erasing data in
TCM. (Connect CONSULT-II, and then turn ignition switch OFF.)
●When replacing CVT assembly or TCM, refer to the pattern table below and erase the EEPROM in the
TCM if necessary.
EEPROM ERASING PATTERNS
METHOD FOR ERASING THE EEPROM IN THE TCM
1. Connect CONSULT-II to data link connector.
2. Turn ignition switch “ON”. Confirm that CONSULT-II is turned “ON”.
3. Move selector lever to “R” position.
4. Touch “START” on CONSULT-II.
5. Select “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” mode for “TRANSMISSION” with CONSULT-II.
6. Brake switch “ON”.
7. Press the accelerator pedal (0.5/8 - 4/8 throttle) not to exceed the half, and hold it in the half or less open
position. (This will set the closed throttle position signal to “OFF” and the wide open throttle position signal
to “OFF”.)
8. Touch “ERASE” on CONSULT-II, and then touch “YES”.
9. Wait 3 seconds and then release the accelerator pedal.
10. Turn ignition switch “OFF”.

CAN Communication Unit For 2WD Models ACS003L3
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.

Line Pressure and Secondary Pressure Control ACS0020K
●When an input torque signal equivalent to the engine drive force is sent from the ECM to the TCM, the
TCM controls the line pressure solenoid valve and secondary pressure solenoid valve.
●This line pressure solenoid controls the pressure regulator valve as the signal pressure and adjusts the
pressure of the operating oil discharged from the oil pump to the line pressure most appropriate to the
driving state. Secondary pressure is made by line pressure decreasing.

NORMAL CONTROL
Optimize the line pressure and secondary pressure, depending on driving conditions, on the basis of the throt-
tle position, the engine speed, the primary pulley (input) revolution speed, the secondary pulley (output) revo-
lution speed, the brake signal, the PNP switch signal, the lock-up signal, the voltage, the target gear ratio, the
fluid temperature, and the fluid pressure.
FEEDBACK CONTROL
When controlling the normal fluid pressure or the selected fluid pressure, the secondary pressure can be set
more accurately by using the fluid pressure sensor to detect the secondary pressure and controlling the feed-
back.
Shift Control ACS0020L
In order to select the gear ratio which can obtain the driving force in accordance with driver's intention and the
vehicle condition, monitor the driving conditions, such as the vehicle speed and the throttle position, select the
appropriate gear ratio, and determine how to change the gear before reaching it in the TCM. Then send the
command to the step motor, and control the flow-in/flow-out of line pressure from the primary pulley to deter-
mine the position of the moving-pulley and control the gear ratio.
NOTE:
The gear ratio is set for every position separately.
“D” POSITION
Shifting over all the ranges of gear ratios from the lowest to the high-
est.
“S”POSITION
Use this position for the improved engine braking.

Revision; 2004 April 2003 Murano
“L” POSITION
By limiting the gear range to the lowest position, the strong driving
force and the engine brake can be secured.
DOWNHILL ENGINE BRAKE CONTROL (AUTO ENGINE BRAKE CONTROL)
When downhill is detected with the accelerator pedal released, the engine brake will be strengthened up by
downshifting so as not to accelerate the vehicle more than necessary.
KICKDOWN CONTROL
During sudden deceleration, determine if it is a sudden deceleration from the throttle position to secure the
highly responsive driving force as necessary. When it is judged as sudden deceleration, speed up the shift pat-
tern faster than normal depression for a certain period of time, and slowly shift gears to get highly responsive
shift pattern.
Lock-Up and Select Control ACS002S9
●The torque converter clutch piston in the torque converter is engaged to eliminate torque converter slip to
increase power transmission efficiency.
●The torque converter clutch control valve operation is controlled by the torque converter clutch solenoid
valve, which is controlled by a signal from TCM. The torque converter clutch control valve engages or
releases the torque converter clutch piston.
●When shifting between N (P) ⇔ D (R), torque converter clutch solenoid controls engagement power of
forward clutch and reverse brake.
●The lock-up applied gear range was expanded by locking up the
torque converter at a lower vehicle speed than conventional
CVT models.

ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM PFP:00028
Introduction ACS001SS
The CVT 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, and the TCM memory.
The second is the TCM original self-diagnosis performed by the TCM. The malfunction is stored in the TCM
memory. The detected items are overlapped with OBD-II self-diagnostic items. For detail, refer to CVT-71,
"Self-Diagnostic Result Test Mode" .
OBD-II Function for CVT System ACS001ST
The ECM provides emission-related on board diagnostic (OBD-II) functions for the CVT system. One function
is to receive a signal from the TCM used with OBD-related parts of the CVT system. The signal is sent to the
ECM when a malfunction occurs in the corresponding OBD-related part. The other function is to indicate a
diagnostic result by means of the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp) on the instrument panel. Sensors, switches
and solenoid valves are used as sensing elements.
The MIL automatically illuminates in One or Two Trip Detection Logic when a malfunction is sensed in relation
to CVT system parts.
One or Two Trip Detection Logic of OBD-II ACS001SU
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 with such a memory function.
TWO TRIP DETECTION LOGIC
When a malfunction is sensed during the first test drive, it is stored in the ECM memory as a 1st trip DTC
(diagnostic trouble code) or 1st trip freeze frame data. At this point, the MIL will not illuminate. — First Trip
If the same malfunction as that experienced during the first test drive is sensed during the second test drive,
the MIL will illuminate. — Second 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) ACS001SV
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 displays the malfunctioning component or system.)
●1st trip DTC No. is the same as DTC No.
●Output of the diagnostic trouble code indicates that the indicated circuit has a malfunction. 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 recom-
mended.
A sample of CONSULT-II display for DTC and 1st trip DTC is shown
on the next page. DTC or 1st trip DTC of a malfunction is displayed
in SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS mode for “ENGINE” with CON-
SULT-II. Time data indicates how many times the vehicle was driven
after the last detection of a DTC.
SCIA2272E
CVT-46
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM
Revision; 2004 April 2003 Murano
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 has a memory function, which stores the driving condition such as fuel system status, calculated
load value, engine coolant temperature, short term fuel trim, long term fuel trim, engine 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, 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, refer to EC-125, "CONSULT-II Function" .
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 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 ECM memory, 1st trip freeze frame data is no
longer stored. Remember, only one set of freeze frame data can be stored in the ECM. The ECM has the fol-
lowing priorities to update the data.
Both 1st trip freeze frame data and freeze frame data (along with the DTC) are cleared when the ECM mem-
ory is erased.
HOW TO ERASE DTC
The diagnostic trouble code can be erased by CONSULT-II, GST or ECM DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE as
described following.
●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
selector on the ECM.
The following emission-related diagnostic information is cleared from the ECM memory when erasing DTC
related to OBD-II. For details, refer to EC-69, "Emission-related Diagnostic Information" .
●Diagnostic trouble codes (DTC)
●1st trip diagnostic trouble codes (1st trip DTC)
●Freeze frame data

HOW TO ERASE DTC (WITH CONSULT-II)
●If a DTC is displayed for both ECM and TCM, it is necessary to be erased for both ECM and TCM.
1. If the ignition switch stays “ON” after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch “OFF” once. Wait at least
10 seconds and then turn it “ON” (engine stopped) again.
2. Turn CONSULT-II “ON” and touch “TRANSMISSION”.
3. Touch “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”.
4. Touch “ERASE”. (The DTC in the TCM will be erased.) Then touch “BACK” twice.
5. Touch “ENGINE”.
6. Touch “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”.
7. Touch “ERASE”. (The DTC in the ECM will be erased.)
HOW TO ERASE DTC (WITH GST)
1. If the ignition switch stays “ON” after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch “OFF” once. Wait at least
10 seconds and then turn it “ON” (engine stopped) again.
2. Select Mode 4 with Generic Scan Tool (GST). For details, refer to EC-138, "Generic Scan Tool (GST)

DTC Inspection Priority Chart ACS001SX
If some DTCs are displayed at the same time, perform inspections one by one based on the following priority
chart.
NOTE:
If DTC U1000 is displayed with other DTCs, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC U1000. Refer to
CVT-76 .
Fail-Safe ACS001SY
The TCM has an electrical fail-safe mode. This mode makes it possible to operate even if there is an error in a
main electronic control input/output signal circuit.
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
If any malfunction occurs in a sensor or solenoid, this function controls the CVT to make driving possible.
Output Speed Sensor (Secondary Speed Sensor)
●The shift pattern is changed in accordance with throttle position when an unexpected signal is sent from
the output speed sensor (secondary speed sensor) to the TCM. The Second position is inhibited, and the
transmission is put in “D” if “S” is selected.
Input Speed Sensor (Primary Speed Sensor)
●The shift pattern is changed in accordance with throttle position and secondary speed (vehicle speed)
when an unexpected signal is sent from the input speed sensor (primary speed sensor) to the TCM. The
Second position is inhibited and the transmission is put in “D” if “S” is selected.
PNP Switch
●If an unexpected signal is sent from the PNP switch to the TCM, the transmission is put in “D”
CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor
●If an unexpected signal is sent from the CVT fluid temperature sensor to the TCM, the gear ratio in use
before receiving the unexpected signal is maintained or the gear ratio is controlled to keep engine speed
under 5000 rpm.
Transmission Fluid Pressure Sensor A (Secondary Pressure Sensor)
●If an unexpected signal is sent from the transmission fluid pressure sensor A (secondary pressure sensor)
to the TCM, the secondary pressure feedback control is stopped and the offset value obtained before the
non-standard condition occurs is used to control line pressure.
●If transmission fluid pressure sensor A (secondary pressure sensor) error signal is input to TCM, second-
ary pressure feedback control stops, but line pressure is controlled normally.
Pressure Control Solenoid A (Line Pressure Solenoid)
●If an unexpected signal is sent from the solenoid to the TCM, the pressure control solenoid A (line pres-
sure solenoid) is turned “off” to achieve the maximum fluid pressure.
Pressure Control Solenoid B (Secondary Pressure Solenoid)
●If an unexpected signal is sent from the solenoid to the TCM, the pressure control solenoid B (secondary
pressure solenoid) is turned “off” to achieve the maximum fluid pressure.
Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid
●If an unexpected signal is sent from the solenoid to the TCM, the torque converter clutch solenoid is
turned “off” to cancel the lock-up.
Step Motor
●If an unexpected signal is sent from the step motor to the TCM, the step motor coil phases “A” through “D”
are all turned “off” to hold the gear ratio used right before the non-standard condition occurred.

How To Perform Trouble Diagnosis For Quick and Accurate Repair ACS001SZ
INTRODUCTION
The TCM receives a signal from the vehicle speed sensor, PNP switch and provides shift control or lock-up
control via CVT 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
CVT system for malfunction-diagnostic purposes. The TCM is capa-
ble of diagnosing malfunctioning parts while the ECM can store mal-
functions in its memory.
Input and output signals must always be correct and stable in the
operation of the CVT system. The CVT system must be in good
operating condition and be free of valve seizure, solenoid valve mal-
function, etc.
It is much more difficult to diagnose an error that occurs intermit-
tently 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 check only may not find the cause of the errors. A road test
with CONSULT-II (or GST) or a circuit tester connected should be
performed. Follow the CVT-51, "WORK FLOW" .
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with a
customer who approaches with a drivability complaint. The customer
can supply good information about such errors, especially intermit-
tent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under what con-
ditions they occur. A “Diagnostic Worksheet” as shown on the
example (Refer to CVT-52 ) should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for “conventional” errors first. This will
help troubleshoot drivability errors on an electronically controlled
engine vehicle.
Also check related Service bulletins.

DTC U1000 CAN COMMUNICATION LINE
Revision; 2004 April 2003 Murano
DTC U1000 CAN COMMUNICATION LINE PFP:23710
Description ACS001TF
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent malfunction detection ability.
Many electronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with 2 communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
On Board Diagnosis Logic ACS001TG
●This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.
●Diagnostic trouble code “CAN COMM CIRCUIT” with CONSULT-II or U1000 without CONSULT-II is
detected when TCM cannot communicate to other control units.
Possible Cause ACS001TH
Harness or connectors
(CAN communication line is open or shorted.)
DTC Confirmation Procedure ACS001TI
NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously performed, always turn ignition switch “OFF”
and wait at least 10 seconds before performing the next test.
After the repair, touch “ERASE” on “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” and then perform the following procedure to con-
firm the malfunction is eliminated.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “TRANSMISSION” with
CONSULT-II.
3. Start engine and wait for at least 6 seconds.
4. If DTC is detected, go to CVT-78, "Diagnostic Procedure" .
