Nissan Almera Tino V10. Manual - part 70

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 and SB section of
this Service Manual.

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 On Board Diagnostic (EURO-OBD) System of A/T and Engine —
Euro-OBD —

ECS0096B

The ECM has an on board diagnostic system. It will light up the malfunction indicator (MI) to warn the driver of
a malfunction causing emission deterioration.

CAUTION:

●

Be sure to turn the ignition switch “OFF” and disconnect the negative battery terminal before any
repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid valves,
etc. will cause the MI to light up.

●

Be sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector will
cause the MI to light up due to an open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water, grease,
dirt, bent terminals, etc.)

●

Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. Interference of the harness with a
bracket, etc. may cause the MI to light up due to a short circuit.

●

Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MI to light up due to a malfunction of the EGR system or fuel injection system, etc.

●

Be sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the TCM and
ECM before returning the vehicle to the customer.

Precautions for Trouble Diagnosis

ECS0096C

CAN SYSTEM

●

Do not apply voltage of 7.0V or higher to the measurement terminals.

●

Use the tester with its open terminal voltage being 7.0V or less.

Precautions for Harness Repair

ECS0096D

CAN SYSTEM

●

Solder the repaired parts, and wrap with tape. [Frays of twisted
line must be within 110 mm (4.33 in)]

PKIA0306E

AT-6

PRECAUTIONS

●

Do not perform bypass wire connections for the repair
parts.(The spliced wire will become separated and the charac-
teristics of twisted line will be lost.)

Precautions

ECS0096E

●

Before connecting or disconnecting the TCM harness con-
nector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect negative
battery terminal. Failure to do so may damage the TCM.
Because battery voltage is applied to TCM even if ignition
switch is turned off.

●

When connecting or disconnecting pin connectors into or
from TCM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or
break).
Make sure that there are not any bends or breaks on TCM
pin terminal, when connecting pin connectors.

●

Before replacing TCM, perform TCM input/output signal
inspection and make sure whether TCM functions properly
or not. (See page

AT-107, "TCM Terminals and Reference

Value"

PRECAUTIONS

AT-7

●

After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform
“DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) CONFIRMATION PROCE-
DURE”.
The DTC should not be displayed in the “DTC CONFIRMA-
TION PROCEDURE” if the repair is completed.

●

Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the out-
side of the transaxle. It is important to prevent the internal parts
from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.

●

Disassembly should be done in a clean work area.

●

Use lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common
shop rags can leave fibers that could interfere with the operation
of the transaxle.

●

Place disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.

●

All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.

●

Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the transaxle is disassembled.

●

It is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.

●

The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced.
Place disassembled valve body parts in order for easier and proper assembly. Care will also prevent
springs and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.

●

Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.

●

Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings
and seals, or hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.

●

Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.

●

After overhaul, refill the transaxle with new ATF.

●

When the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque
converter and ATF cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under

AT-13, "Changing A/T Fluid"

when changing A/T fluid.

Service Notice or Precautions

ECS0096F

FAIL-SAFE

The TCM has an electronic Fail-Safe (limp home mode). This allows the vehicle to be driven even if a major
electrical input/output device circuit is damaged.
Under Fail-Safe, the vehicle always runs in third gear, even with a shift lever position of “1”, “2” or “D”. The cus-
tomer may complain of sluggish or poor acceleration.
When the ignition key is turned “ON” following Fail-Safe operation, O/D OFF indicator lamp blinks for about 8
seconds. Refer to

AT-252, "Diagnostic Procedure Without CONSULT-II"

(EXCEPT FOR EURO-OBD) or

AT-

51, "TCM SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (NO TOOLS)"

(EURO-OBD).

The blinking of the O/D OFF indicator lamp for about 8 seconds will appear only once and be cleared. The
customer may resume normal driving conditions.
Always follow the “Work Flow”, refer to

AT-261

(EXCEPT FOR EURO-OBD) or

AT-60

(EURO-OBD).

The SELF-DIAGNOSIS results will be as follows:

●

The first SELF-DIAGNOSIS will indicate damage to the vehicle speed sensor or the revolution sensor.

●

During the next SELF-DIAGNOSIS, performed after checking the sensor, no damages will be indicated.

TORQUE CONVERTER SERVICE

The torque converter should be replaced under any of the following conditions:

●

External leaks in the hub weld area.

●

Converter hub is scored or damaged.

●

Converter pilot is broken, damaged or fits poorly into crankshaft.

●

Steel particles are found after flushing the cooler and cooler lines.

●

Pump is damaged or steel particles are found in the converter.

●

Vehicle has TCC shudder and/or no TCC apply. Replace only after all hydraulic and electrical diagnoses
have been made. (Converter clutch material may be glazed.)

●

Converter is contaminated with engine coolant containing antifreeze.
