measures.Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)AIR BAGTheSupplemental
Restraint SystemAIRBAG, usedalongwithaseat belt,
helpstoreducetheriskorseverity of injury to the driver and front
passenger in a frontal collision. The Supplemental Restraint
Systemconsists of air bag modules (located in the center of the
steering wheeland in the instrument panelon thepassenger side), a
diagnosis sensor unit, a crash zone sensor, warning lamp, wiring
harness and spiral cable.The vehicle is equipped with a passenger
air bag deactivation switch. Because no rear seat exists where
arear-facingchildrestraintcanbeplaced,theswitchisdesignedtoturnoffthepassengerairbagsothatarear-facing
child restraint can be used in the front passenger seat. The switch
is located in the center of theinstrument panel, near the ashtray.
When the switch is turned to the ON position, the passenger air bag
isenabled and could inflate in a frontal collision. When the switch
is turned to the OFF position, the passengerair bag is disabled and
will not inflate in a frontal collision. A passenger air bag OFF
indicator on the instru-ment panel lights up when the passenger air
bag is switched OFF. The driver air bag always remains enabledand
is not affected by the passenger air bag deactivation
switch.Information necessary to service the system safely is
included in the RS section of this Service Manual.WARNING:G To
avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk
of personal injury or deathin the event of a collision which would
result in air bag inflation, all maintenance should be per-formed
by an authorized NISSAN dealer.G Improper maintenance, including
incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to
per-sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system.G
Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the
SRS unless instructed to in thisServiceManual.
SRSwiringharnessesarecoveredwithyellowinsulationeitherjustbeforetheharness
connectors or on the complete harness, for easy identification.G
The vehicle is equipped with a passenger air bag deactivation
switch which can be operated bythe customer. When the passenger air
bag is switched OFF, the passenger air bag is disabled andwill not
inflate in a frontal collision. When the passenger air bag is
switched ON, the passenger airbag is enabled and could inflate in a
frontal collision. After SRS maintenance or repair, make surethe
passenger air bag deactivation switch is in the same position (ON
or OFF) as when the vehiclearrived for
service.GIMAEMLCECFECLMTATTFPDFARABRSTRSBTHAELIDXPRECAUTIONS AND

INTERVIEWInterviewthecustomer, if possible,
todeterminetheconditionsthat exist whenthenoiseoccurs.
UsetheDiagnostic Worksheet during the interview to document the
facts and conditions when the noise occurs andany customers
comments; refer to BT-10. This information is necessary to
duplicate the conditions that existwhen the noise occurs.G The
customer may not be able to provide a detail description or
location of the noise. Attempt to obtain allthe facts and
conditions that exist when the noise occurs (or does not occur).G
If there is more than one noise in the vehicle, be sure to diagnose
and repair the noise that the customeris concerned about. This can
be accomplished by test driving the vehicle with the customer.G
After identifying the type of noise, isolate the noise in terms of
its characteristics. The noise characteris-tics are provided so the
customer, service adviser and technician are all speaking the same
language whendefining the noise.G Squeak-(Like tennis shoes on a
clean floor)Squeak characteristics include the light contact / fast
movement / brought on by road conditions / hard sufaces= higher
pitch noise / softer surfaces = lower pitch noises / edge to
surface = chirping.G Creak-(Like walking on an old wooden
floor)Creakcharacteristicsincludefirmcontact / slowmovement /
twistingwitharotational movement / pitchdependent on materials /
often brought on by activity.G Rattle-(Like shaking a baby
rattle)Rattle characteristics include the fast repeated contact /
vibration or similar movement / loose parts / missingclip or
fastener / incorrect clearance.G Knock-(Like a knock on a
door)Knock characteristics include hollow sound / something
repeating / often brought on by driver action.G Tick-(Like a clock
second hand)Tick characteristics include light contact of light
material / loose components / can be caused by driver actionon road
conditions.G Thump-(Heavy, muffled knock noise)Thump
characteristics include softer knock / dead sound often brought on
by activity.GGG Buzz-(Like a bumble bee)Buzz characteristics
include high frequency rattle / firm contact.G Often the degree of
acceptable noise level will vary depending upon the person. Anoise
that you may judgeas acceptable may be very irritating to the
customer.G Weather conditions, especially humidity and temperature,
may have a great effect on noise
level.GIMAEMLCECFECLMTATTFPDFARABRSTRSBTHAELIDXSQUEAK AND RATTLE
TROUBLE DIAGNOSESBT-5DUPLICATE THE NOISE AND TEST DRIVEIf possible,
drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated.
Note any additional information onthe Diagnostic Worksheet
regarding the conditions or locations of the noise. This
information can be used toduplicate the same conditions when you
confirm the repair.If the noise can be duplicated easily during the
test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to
dupli-cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all
of the following:1) Close a door.2) Tap or push / pull around the
area where the noise appears to be coming from.3) Rev the engine.4)
Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle twist.5) At idle, apply engine
load (electric load, half-clutch on M/T model, drive position on
A/T model).6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with
rubber hammer.G Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the
conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs.G If it
is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the vehicle slowly on an
undulating or rough road to stress thevehicle body.CHECK RELATED
SERVICE BULLETINSAfter verifying the customer concern or symptom,
check ASSIST for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) relatedto that
concern or symptom.If a TSB relates to the symptom, follow the
procedure to repair the noise.LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE
ROOT CAUSE1. Narrow down the noise to a generalarea. To help
pinpoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool(Chassis Ear
: J-39570, Engine Ear : J-39565 and mechanics stethoscope).2.
Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the
cause of the noise by:G Removing the components in the area that
you suspect the noise is coming from.Do not use too much force when
removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fasteners can be
brokenor lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new
noise.G Tapping or pushing/pulling the component that you suspect
is causing the noise.Do not tap or push/pull the component with
excessive force, otherwise the noise will be eliminated only
tem-porarily.G Feeling for a vibration with your hand by touching
the component(s) that you suspect is (are) causing thenoise.G
Placing a piece of paper between components that you suspect are
causing the noise.G Looking for loose components and contact
marks.Refer to Generic Squeak and Rattle Troubleshooting.REPAIR THE
CAUSEG If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component
securely.G If the cause is insufficient clearance between
components:Separate components by repositioning or loosening and
retightening the component, if possible.insulate components with a
suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth
tape or ure-thane tape. A Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) is
available through your authorized Nissan

a noise is repaired by test driving the vehicle. Operate the
vehicle under the sameconditions as when the noise originally
occurred. Refer to the notes on the Diagnostic Worksheet.Generic
Squeak and Rattle TroubleshootingINSTRUMENT PANELMost incidents are
caused by contact and movement between :1. The lid A and instrument
panel2. Acrylic lens and combination meter housing3. Instrument
panel to front pillar garnish4. Instrument panel to windshield5.
Instrument panel mounting pins6. Wiring harness behind the
combination meter7. A/C defroster duct and duct jointThese
incidents can usually be located by tapping or moving the
components to duplicate the noise or by press-ing on the components
while driving to stop the noise. Most of these incidents can be
repaired by applying feltcloth tape or silicon spray (in hard to
reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate wiring
harness.CAUTION:Do not use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or
rattle. If you saturate the area with silicone, you willnot be able
to recheck the repair.CENTER CONSOLEComponents to pay attention to
include :1. Shifter assembly cover to finisher.2. A/C control unit
and cluster lid C3. Wiring harness behind audio and A/C control
unitThe instrument panel repair and isolation procedures also apply
to center console.DOORSPay attention to the :1. Finisher an inner
panel making a slapping noise2. Inside handle escutcheon to door
finisher3. Wiring harnesses tapping4. Door striker out of alignment
causing a popping noise on starts and stopsTapping or moving the
components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the
conditions can isolatemany of these incidents. You can usually
insulate the areas with felt cloth or insulator foam blocks from
theNissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) to repair the
noise.TRUNKTrunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose
items put into the trunk by the owner.1. Trunk lid bumpers out of
adjustment2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment3. The trunk lid
torsion bars knocking together4. A loose license plate or
bracketMost of theseincidentscanberepairedbyadjusting, securing, or
insulatingtheitem(s) or component(s)causing the noise.SUNROOF AND
HEADLINERNoises in the sunroof and headliner area can often be
traced to one of the following:1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or
seals making a rattle or light knocking
noiseGIMAEMLCECFECLMTATTFPDFARABRSTRSBTHAELIDXSQUEAK AND RATTLE
TROUBLE DIAGNOSESWork Flow (Contd)BT-72. Sunvisor shaft shaking in
the holder3. Front or rear windshield touching headliner and
squeakingAgain, pressing on the components to stop the noise while
duplicating the conditions can isolate most of theseincidents.
Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth
tape.SEATSWhen isolating seat noises its important to note the
position the seat in and the load placed on the seat whenthe noise
is present.These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and
isolating the cause of the noise.Cause of seat noise include :1.
Headrest rods and holders2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion
and frame3. The rear seat back lock and bracketThese noises can be
isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while
duplicating the con-ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of
these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the componentor
applying urethane tape to the contact area.UNDERHOODSome interior
noises may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine
wall. The noise is thentransmitted into the passenger
compartment.Causes of transmitted underhood noises include:1. Any
components mounted to the engine wall2. Components that pass
through the engine wall3. Engine wall mounts and connectors4. Loose
radiator mounting pins5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment6. Hood
striker out of adjustment.These noises can be difficult to isolate
since they can not be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The
bestmethod is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time
and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPMor load can be changed
to isolate the noise.Repair can usually be made by moving,
adjusting, securing, or insulating the component causing the
noise.SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSESGeneric Squeak and Rattle
