  1. With the ignition switch OFF, connect "CONSULT-II" and "CONSULT-II CONVERTER" to the data link connector, and turn ignition switch ON.
  2. Touch "START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)".
  3. Touch "BCM" on "SELECT SYSTEM" screen. If "BCM" is not indicated, go to «CONSULT-II DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC) CIRCUIT»(ref-233237-S35323486542006052500000).
  4. Touch "BUZZER" or "BCM".
  5. Select "DATA MONITOR" or "SELF-DIAG RESULTS".

OPERATION PROCEDURE

  1. Touch "BUZZER" on "SELECT TEST ITEM" screen.
  2. Touch "DATA MONITOR" on "SELECT DIAG MODE" screen.
  3. Touch "ALL SIGNALS" or "SELECTION FROM MENU" on "DATA MONITOR" screen. MONITOR MAINE ITEM SPECIFICATION ALL SIGNALS Monitors main items. SELECTION FROM MENU Selects and monitors items.
  4. If "SELECTION FROM MENU" is selected, touch the item you desire to monitor. If "ALL SIGNALS" is selected, all control items are monitored.
  5. Touch "START".
  6. During monitoring, touching "RECORD" can start recording the monitored item status.
  1. Touch "BUZZER" on "SELECT TEST ITEM" screen.
  2. Touch "ACTIVE TEST" on "SELECT DIAG MODE" screen.
  3. Touch the item to be tested, and check the operation.
  4. During the operation check, touching "OFF" deactivates the operation.
  1. Touch "BCM" on "SELECT TEST ITEM" screen.
  2. Touch "SELF-DIAG RESULTS" on "SELECT DIAG MODE" screen.
  3. Self-diagnostic results are displayed.
  1. When the A/T selector lever is in the reverse position, the display shows view to the rear of the vehicle.
  2. Lines which indicate the vehicle clearance and distances are displayed on the monitor.

REAR VIEW CAMERA OPERATION

When ignition switch is in ON or START position, power is supplied

  1. through 10A fuse (No. 51, located in the IPDM E/R)
  2. to back-up lamp relay terminals 1 and 3.

When A/T selector lever is in reverse position, power is supplied

  1. through back-up lamp relay terminal 2
  2. to TCM terminal 7.

Then, when back-up lamp relay is energized

  1. from back-up lamp relay terminal 5
  2. to rear view camera control unit terminal 4.

Then, rear view camera control unit is sent camera ON signal

  1. through rear view camera control unit terminal 8
  2. to rear view camera terminal 1.

An image taken by rear view camera is sent

  1. through rear view camera terminals 3 and 4
  2. to rear view camera control unit terminals 10 and 9.

Then an image is sent

  1. through rear view camera control unit terminals 11 and 12
  2. to display unit terminals 4 and 15.

An image of rear view will be projected on the display.

  2. Touch "START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)".
  3. Touch "REARVIEW CAMERA" on "SELECT SYSTEM" screen. If "REARVIEW CAMERA" is not indicated, go to «CONSULT-II DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC) CIRCUIT»(ref-233237-S35323486542006052500000).
  4. Select "WORK SUPPORT", "DATA MONITOR" or "ECU PART NUMBER".
  1. Touch "WORK SUPPORT" on "SELECT DIAG MODE" screen.
  2. Touch either "SELCT GUIDELINE PATTERN" or "ADJ GUIDELINE POSITION" on the "SELECT WORK ITEM" screen.
SELCT GUIDELINE PATTERNSide distance guideline is optional from two patterns.
ADJ GUIDELINE POSITIONSide distance guideline is adjustable toward up and down, right and left.

SELCT GUIDELINE PATTERN

Refer to SIDE DISTANCE GUIDELINE CORRECTION PROCEDURE for detail.

  1. Touch "DATA MONITOR" on "SELECT DIAG MODE" screen.
  2. Touch either "ALL SIGNALS" or "SELECTION FROM MENU" on the "SELECT MONITOR ITEM" screen. DATA MONITOR SPECIFICATION ALL SIGNALS Monitors all signals. SELECTION FROM MENU Selects and monitors individual signal.
  3. When "SELECTION FROM MENU" is selected, touch individual items to be monitored. When "ALL SIGNALS" is selected, all items will be monitored.
  4. Touch "START".
