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. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the “SRS AIR BAG” and
“SEAT BELT” of this Service Manual.
WARNING:
Always observe the following items for preventing accidental activation.
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision that would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see “SRS AIR BAG”.
• Never use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this Ser-
vice Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or harness
connectors.

COMPONENT PARTS
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >
NOTE: K
The EPC control unit, EPS motor, torque sensor, and reduction gear
are integrated with the steering column ASSY.
• EPS control unit performs an arithmetical operation on data, L
such as steering wheel turning force (sensor signal) from the
torque sensor, vehicle speed signal, etc. Then it generates an opti-
mum assist torque signal to the EPS motor according to the driving
condition. M
• When the power steering function is used continuously for an
extended period of time, such as when steering wheel is turned
while the vehicle is stopped, output is reduced to the EPS motor in N
order to protect EPS motor and EPS control unit. At this time, the JSGIA1430ZZ
assist torque gradually decreases and more force is required to
operate the steering wheel. However the normal assist torque returns after steering operation is discontin-
ued for a period of time. O
• If there is a malfunction in the electrical system, the fail-safe function activates and turns OFF the output sig-
nal to the EPS motor, resulting in manual steering conditions. At this time, the power steering warning lamp
illuminates to notify the driver of the system malfunction. P
• When the stop/start system operation starts, the EPS control unit receives a stop/start status signal from
ECM via CAN communication and disables the assist control.
• When the driver turns the steering wheel (torque application exceeding the specified torque) during stop/
start system operation, the EPS control unit transmits an EPS torque signal to ECM via CAN communication
and restarts the engine (disables stop/start system).
• The intelligent parking assist status signal and current command signal are received from around view mon-
itor control unit via CAN communication for Intelligent Parking Assist control.
STC-9
COMPONENT PARTS
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >
• The EPS control unit sends the Intelligent Parking Assist status signal to the around view monitor control unit
to indicate whether or not Intelligent Parking Assist control is possible.
• When the driver turns the steering wheel during Intelligent Parking Assist control, Intelligent Parking Assist
control is canceled.
• This enables diagnosis using CONSULT.

SYSTEM
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >
• EPS control unit performs an arithmetical operation on data, such
as steering wheel turning force (sensor signal) from the torque
sensor, vehicle speed signal, etc. Then it generates an optimum
assist torque signal to the EPS motor according to the driving con-
dition.
• In case of an error in the electrical system, the fail-safe function
stops output signals to the EPS motor. Refer to STC-12, "EPS
SYSTEM : Fail-safe".
• EPS control unit decreases the output signal to EPS motor while
extremely using the power steering function (e.g., full steering)
consecutively for protecting EPS motor and EPS control unit
(Overload protection control). Refer to STC-13, "EPS SYSTEM :
Protection Function".
• Extensive steering at low speed will cause the ECU and MOTOR
to heat up, once temperature reaches critical point ECU will reduce
current to reduce heat up. System will recover as temperature low-
ers (reduced or no assistance).
• When the driver turns the steering wheel (torque application
exceeding the specified torque) during stop/start, the EPS control
unit restarts the engine (disables stop/start system) and immedi-
ately brings the assist control in its ready-to-start state.
• If EPS becomes out of order, the power steering warning lamp
blinks and the Stop/Start System brings about such conditions as
JMGIA0185GB
follows:
- Stop/start mode is not enabled under non stop/start state.
- The engine is restarted during stop/start, regardless of steering wheel operation.
• The Intelligent Parking Assist function provides support for garage parking and parallel parking, and auto-
matically operates the steering wheel when the system is active.
POWER STEERING WARNING LAMP INDICATION
• This light illuminates when the fail-safe function is activated, notifying the driver that there is a malfunction in
the system and that steering state is manual (more force is required to turn the steering wheel).
• Also turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check. Turns OFF after the engine
starts, if system is normal.
• If any malfunction occurs in the system and control unit detects the malfunction, power steering warning
lamp on combination meter turns ON to indicate system malfunction.
• When power steering warning lamp is ON, the system enters into a manual steering state. (Control turning
force steering wheel becomes heavy.)
