BASIC INSPECTION
DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORK FLOW
Work Flow INFOID:0000000003552468

DETAILED FLOW
1.COLLECT THE INFORMATION FROM THE CUSTOMER
It is also important to clarify customer complaints before inspection. First of all, reproduce symptoms and
understand them fully. Ask customer about his/her complaints carefully. In some cases, it is necessary to
check symptoms by driving vehicle with customer.
CAUTION:
Customers are not professional. It is dangerous to make an easy guess like “maybe the customer
means that...,” or “maybe the customer mentions this symptom”.

>> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK THE STATUS
1. Power steering fluid leakage and check the power steering fluid level. Refer to ST-11, "Inspection".
2. Check the drive belt tension. Refer to EM-13, "Checking".
3. Check the power steering gear for damages, cracks and fluid leakage. Refer to ST-33, "2WD : Inspection"
(2WD models), ST-43, "AWD : Inspection" (AWD models).
4. Check the relief oil pressure. Refer to ST-49, "Inspection".

>> GO TO 3.
3.DIAGNOSIS CHART BY SYMPTOM
Perform the diagnosis by symptom. Refer to STC-18, "Diagnosis Procedure".

>> GO TO 4.
4.FINAL CHECK
Check the input/output standard values for the power steering control unit.
Are the power steering control unit input/output values within standard ranges respectively?
YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> GO TO 2.

 EPS SYSTEM
< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS > [EPS]
• The valve driving voltage to control the power steering solenoid
valve varies according to the vehicle speed.

JSGIA0113GB

OPERATION PRINCIPLE
During Parking (When Turning The Steering Wheel To The Right.)

JSGIA0020GB

1. Power steering solenoid valve is closed while a vehicle is stopped.

2. Pinion “1R”, “2R” and “3R” are closed depending on steering torque of steering wheel.
3. Oil pressure “P” in the gear housing assembly is the sum of oil pressures occurred in “2R” and “3R”. This
results in a light steering force because of high pressure.
During High-speed Operation

JSGIA0021GB

1. Power steering solenoid valve is opened during high-speed operation.

2. Pinion “1R”, “2R” and “3R” are closed depending on steering torque of steering wheel.
3. Oil pressure “2R” does not occur because the power steering solenoid valve is on full throttle.
4. Oil pressure “P” in the gear housing assembly includes only oil pressure occurred in “3R” and results in a
heavy steering force.

 PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [EPS]

PRECAUTION A
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT B
PRE-TENSIONER" INFOID:0000000003552495

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along C
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. D
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the “SRS AIRBAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.
WARNING: E
• 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 performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
F
• 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 the “SRS AIRBAG”.
• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this STC
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation after Battery Disconnect H
INFOID:0000000003552488

NOTE:
I
• Before removing and installing any control units, first turn the push-button ignition switch to the LOCK posi-
tion, then disconnect both battery cables.
• After finishing work, confirm that all control unit connectors are connected properly, then re-connect both
battery cables. J
• Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If a DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnosis results.
This vehicle is equipped with a push-button ignition switch and a steering lock unit. K
If the battery is disconnected or discharged, the steering wheel will lock and cannot be turned.
If turning the steering wheel is required with the battery disconnected or discharged, follow the procedure
below before starting the repair operation.
L
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables.
NOTE: M
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Carry the Intelligent Key or insert it to the key slot and turn the push-button ignition switch to ACC position.
(At this time, the steering lock will be released.)
N
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released with both battery cables discon-
nected and the steering wheel can be turned.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
O
5. When the repair work is completed, re-connect both battery cables. With the brake pedal released, turn
the push-button ignition switch from ACC position to ON position, then to LOCK position. (The steering
wheel will lock when the push-button ignition switch is turned to LOCK position.)
P
6. Perform self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.
