PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS PFP:00001
A
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER” NJS0002G

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along B
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 C
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING: D
● 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. E
● 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. F
● 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.
G
Precautions for Battery Service NJS000CU

Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interfer-
ence between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the H
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.
I
Precautions for Working with HFC-134a (R-134a) NJS0002H

CAUTION:
● CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible. If the refrigerants ATC
are mixed and compressor malfunction is likely to occur, refer to “CONTAMINATED REFRIGER-
ANT” below. To determine the purity of HFC-134a (R-134a) in the vehicle and recovery tank, use
Refrigerant Recovery/Recycling Recharging equipment and Refrigerant Identifier.
● Use only specified lubricant for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) compo- K
nents. If lubricant other than that specified is used, compressor malfunction is likely to occur.
● The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) lubricant rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The fol-
lowing handling precautions must be observed: L
– When removing refrigerant components from a vehicle, immediately cap (seal) the component to
minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere.
– When installing refrigerant components to a vehicle, never remove the caps (unseal) until just M
before connecting the components. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly as possi-
ble to minimize the entry of moisture into system.
– Only use the specified lubricant from a sealed container. Immediately reseal containers of lubri-
cant. Without proper sealing, lubricant will become moisture saturated and should not be used.
– Never allow lubricant (Nissan A/C System Oil Type S) to come in contact with styrene foam parts.
Damage may result.

Revision: 2006 August ATC-5 2006 G35 Coupe


PRECAUTIONS

CONTAMINATED REFRIGERANT
If a refrigerant other than pure HFC-134a (R-134a) is identified in a vehicle, take appropriate steps
shown below:
● Explain to the customer that environmental regulations prohibit the release of contaminated refrigerant
into the atmosphere.
● Explain that recovery of the contaminated refrigerant could damage service equipment and refrigerant
supply.
● Suggest the customer return the vehicle to the location of previous service where the contamination may
have occurred.
● In case of repairing, recover the refrigerant using only dedicated equipment and containers. Never
recover contaminated refrigerant into the existing service equipment. If the facility does not have
dedicated recovery equipment, contact a local refrigerant product retailer for available service. This refrig-
erant must be disposed of in accordance with all federal and local regulations. In addition, replacement of
all refrigerant system components on the vehicle is recommended.
● If the vehicle is within the warranty period, the air conditioner warranty is void. Please contact Nissan Cus-
tomer Affairs for further assistance.
General Refrigerant Precautions NJS0002I

WARNING:
● Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Remove HFC-134a (R-134a) from the A/C system, using certified service equipment meet-
ing requirements of SAE J-2210 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recycling equipment], or J-2209 [HFC-134a (R-
134a) recovery equipment]. If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before
resuming service. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and
lubricant manufacturers.
● Never release refrigerant into the air. Use approved recovery/recycling equipment to capture the
refrigerant every time an air conditioning system is discharged.
● Always wear eye and hand protection (goggles and gloves) when working with any refrigerant or
air conditioning system.
● Never store or heat refrigerant containers above 52°C (126°F).
● Never heat a refrigerant container with an open flame; if container warming is required, place the
bottom of the container in a warm pail of water.
● Never intentionally drop, puncture, or incinerate refrigerant containers.
● Keep refrigerant away from open flames: poisonous gas will be produced if refrigerant burns.
● Refrigerant will displace oxygen, therefore be certain to work in well ventilated areas to prevent
suffocation.
● Never pressure test or leak test HFC-134a (R-134a) service equipment and/or vehicle air condition-
ing systems with compressed air during repair. Some mixtures of air and HFC-134a (R-134a) have
been shown to be combustible at elevated pressures. These mixtures, if ignited, may cause injury
or property damage. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant
manufacturers.

PRECAUTIONS

Precautions for Refrigerant Connection NJS0002K

A
A new type refrigerant connection has been introduced to all refrigerant lines except the following location.
● Expansion valve to evaporator
● Refrigerant pressure sensor to condenser B
ABOUT ONE-TOUCH JOINT
Description
● One-touch joints are pipe joints which do not require tools during piping connection. C
● Unlike conventional connection methods using union nuts and flanges, controlling tightening torque at
connection point is not necessary.
● When removing a pipe joint, use a disconnector. D

Revision: 2006 August ATC-7 2006 G35 Coupe


PRECAUTIONS

REMOVAL

SJIA0106E

1. Clean piping connection point, and set a disconnector.


2. Slide disconnector in axial direction of piping, and stretch garter spring with tapered point of disconnector.
3. Slide disconnector farther so that inside diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outside diameter of
female-side piping flare. Then male-side piping can be disconnected.
INSTALLATION

SJIA0107E

1. Clean piping connection points, and insert male-side piping into female-side piping.
2. Push inserted male-side piping harder so that female-side piping flare stretches garter spring.
3. If inside diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outside diameter of female-side piping flare, garter
spring seats on flare. Then, it fits in between male-side piping cage and female-side piping flare to anchor
piping connection point.
NOTE:
When garter spring seats on flare, and fits in between male-side piping cage and female-side piping flare,
it clicks.
CAUTION:
● Female-side piping connection is thin and easy to deform. Slowly insert the male-side piping
straight in axial direction.
● Insert piping securely until a click is heard.

Revision: 2006 August ATC-8 2006 G35 Coupe


PRECAUTIONS

● After piping connection is completed, pull male-side piping by hand to make sure that connec-
tion does not come loose. A
NOTE:
One-touch joint connection is used in points below.
● Low-pressure flexible hose to low-pressure pipe 1 (O-ring size: 16) B
● Low-pressure pipe 1 to low-pressure pipe 2 (O-ring size: 16)

● High-pressure flexible hose to condenser (O-ring size: 12)

ATC

Revision: 2006 August ATC-9 2006 G35 Coupe


PRECAUTIONS

FEATURES OF NEW TYPE REFRIGERANT CONNECTION


● The O-ring has been relocated. It has also been provided with a groove for proper installation. This elimi-
nates the possibility of the O-ring being caught in, or damaged by, the mating part. The sealing direction of
the O-ring is now set vertically in relation to the contacting surface of the mating part to improve sealing
characteristics.
● The reaction force of the O-ring will not occur in the direction that causes the joint to pull out, thereby facil-
itating piping connections.

SHA815E

O-RING AND REFRIGERANT CONNECTION

PJIA0154E

Revision: 2006 August ATC-10 2006 G35 Coupe


PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION:
The new and former refrigerant connections use different O-ring configurations. Never confuse O- A
rings since they are not interchangeable. If a wrong O-ring is installed, refrigerant may leak at the con-
nection.

WARNING:
Make sure all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system is
less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove it.
ATC
CAUTION:
When replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components, observe the following.
● When the compressor is removed, store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car. Fail-
ure to do so will cause lubricant to enter the low-pressure chamber. K
● When connecting tubes, always use a torque wrench and a back-up wrench.
● After disconnecting tubes, immediately plug all openings to prevent entry of dust and moisture.
L
● When installing an air conditioner in the vehicle, connect the pipes at the final stage of the opera-
tion. Never remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for con-
nection.
M
● Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.
● Thoroughly remove moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.
● Always replace used O-rings.
● When connecting tubes, apply lubricant to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration. Be careful
not to apply lubricant to threaded portion.
Name : Nissan A/C System Oil Type S
● O-ring must be closely attached to the groove of tube.
● When replacing the O-ring, be careful not to damage O-ring and tube.
● Connect tube until a click can be heard, then tighten the nut or bolt by hand. Make sure that the O-
ring is installed to tube correctly.

Revision: 2006 August ATC-11 2006 G35 Coupe


PRECAUTIONS

● After connecting line, perform leak test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections.
When the refrigerant leaking point is found, disconnect that line and replace the O-ring. Then
tighten connections of seal seat to the specified torque.

RHA861F

Precautions for Servicing Compressor NJS0002L

● Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
● When the compressor is removed, store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car.
● When replacing or repairing compressor, follow “Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compres-
sor” exactly. Refer to ATC-26, "Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compressor" .
● Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. If the surface is contaminated, with lubri-
cant, wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened with thinner.
● After compressor service operation, turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in
both directions. This will equally distribute lubricant inside the compressor. After the compressor
is installed, let the engine idle and operate the compressor for one hour.
● After replacing the compressor magnet clutch, apply voltage to the new one and check for normal
operation.
Precautions for Service Equipment NJS0002M

RECOVERY/RECYCLING EQUIPMENT
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Never
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine.
ELECTRICAL LEAK DETECTOR
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for tester operation and tester maintenance.

Revision: 2006 August ATC-12 2006 G35 Coupe


PRECAUTIONS

VACUUM PUMP
The lubricant contained inside the vacuum pump is not compatible A
with the specified lubricant for HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C systems.
The vent side of the vacuum pump is exposed to atmospheric pres-
sure. So the vacuum pump lubricant may migrate out of the pump B
into the service hose. This is possible when the pump is switched off
after evacuation (vacuuming) and hose is connected to it.
To prevent this migration, use a manual valve placed near the hose-
to-pump connection, as follows. C
● Usually vacuum pumps have a manual isolator valve as part of
the pump. Close this valve to isolate the service hose from the
pump. D
● For pumps without an isolator, use a hose equipped with a man-
ual shut-off valve near the pump end. Close the valve to isolate
the hose from the pump. E
● If the hose has an automatic shut-off valve, disconnect the hose
from the pump. As long as the hose is connected, the valve is
open and lubricating oil may migrate. F
Some one-way valves open when vacuum is applied and close
under no vacuum condition. Such valves may restrict the pump’s
ability to pull a deep vacuum and are not recommended.

PRECAUTIONS

SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to a
CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers will
not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.

REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALE


Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied lubricants have been used with the scale. If the scale controls
refrigerant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2″-16
ACME.

RHA274D

CHARGING CYLINDER
Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be vented into air from cylinder’s top valve
when filling the cylinder with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less than that of an
electrical scale or of quality recycle/recharge equipment.
Precautions for Leak Detection Dye NJS0002N

● The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leaks. An ultraviolet
(UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leaks.
● Always wear fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect your eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.
● The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electrical leak detector (SST: J-41995). The
fluorescent dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electrical leak detector (SST: J-41995)
to pin-point refrigerant leaks.
● For the purpose of safety and customer’s satisfaction, read and follow all manufacture’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions prior to performing the work.
● A compressor shaft seal should not necessarily be repaired because of dye seepage. The compressor
shaft seal should only be repaired after confirming the leak with an electrical leak detector (SST: J-41995).
● Always remove any remaining dye from the leak area after repairs are completed to avoid a misdiagnosis
during a future service.
● Never allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. If dye is spilled,
clean immediately with the approved dye cleaner. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an extended period
of time cannot be removed.
● Never spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).
● Never use more than one refrigerant dye bottle (1/4 ounce /7.4 cc) per A/C system.
● Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Never use
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system, or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection
dye in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system, or A/C system damage may result.
● The fluorescent properties of the dye will remain for three years or a little over unless a compressor mal-
function occurs.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM PFP:KA990

Refrigerant Cycle NJS0002S

REFRIGERANT FLOW
The refrigerant flows from the compressor, through the condenser with liquid tank, through the evaporator, and
back to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation in the evaporator is controlled by an externally equalized
expansion valve, located inside the evaporator case.
FREEZE PROTECTION
To prevent evaporator frozen up, the evaporator air temperature is monitored, and the voltage signal to the
display and A/C auto amp. will make the A/C relay go OFF and stop the compressor.
Refrigerant System Protection NJS0002T

REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR


The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high- or low-pressures by the refrigerant pressure sen-
sor, located on the condenser. If the system pressure rises above, or falls below the specifications, the refrig-
erant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the refrigerant line and sends the voltage signal to the ECM.
ECM makes the A/C relay go OFF and stops the compressor when pressure on the high-pressure side
detected by refrigerant pressure sensor is over about 3,119 kPa (31.8 kg/cm2 , 452 psi), or below about 118
kPa (1.2 kg/cm2 , 17 psi).
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
When the pressure of refrigerant in the system increases to an unusual level [more than 3,727 kPa (38 kg/cm2
, 540 psi)], the release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrigerant into the
atmosphere.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

V-6 Variable Displacement Compressor NJS0002U

GENERAL INFORMATION A
1. The V-6 variable compressor differs from previous units. The outlet air temperatures of the V-6 variable
compressor do not drop too far below 5°C (41°F) when:
Evaporator intake air temperature is less than 20°C (68°F). B
Engine is running at speeds less than 1,500 rpm.
This is because the V-6 compressor provides a means of “capacity” control.
2. The V-6 variable compressor provides refrigerant control under varying conditions. During cold winters, it C
may not produce high refrigerant pressure discharge (compared to previous units) when used with air
conditioning systems.
3. A “clanking” sound may occasionally be heard during refrigerant charge. The sound indicates that the tilt
D
angle of the wobble (swash) plate has changed and is not a malfunction.
4. For air conditioning systems with the V-6 compressor, the clutch remains engaged unless: the system
main switch, fan switch or ignition switch is turned OFF. When ambient (outside) temperatures are low or
when the amount of refrigerant is insufficient, the clutch is disengaged to protect the compressor. E

Revision: 2006 August ATC-21 2006 G35 Coupe


REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION
General
The variable compressor is a swash plate type that changes piston stroke in response to the required cooling
capacity.
The tilt of the wobble (swash) plate allows the piston’s stroke to change so that refrigerant discharge continu-
ously changed from 13.5 to 146 cm3 (0.824 to 8.91 cu. in).

RJIA4206E

Revision: 2006 August ATC-22 2006 G35 Coupe


REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

Operation
1. Control Valve A
– By changing high-pressure valve lift amount, built-in electronic control valve executes the following:
• Controls high-pressure valve discharge amount.
B
• Changes crankcase pressure in compressor.
• Changes angle of wobble (swash) plate.
– Amount of high-pressure valve lift is determined by factors below.
C
• Low-pressure applied to diaphragm
• Spring load of set spring
• Balance of magnetic force generated by magnet coil D
– Electronic control valve (ECV) magnet coil receives electric signal (duty control) from display and A/C
auto amp. Then, magnetic force generated by electric current is changed to control high-pressure valve lift
amount. E
2. Maximum Cooling
High-pressure valve is closed by magnetic force generated by electric signal sent from display and A/C
auto amp. At this time, cylinder moves full stroke due to pressure balance between inside crankcase (Pc)
and suction line (Ps). F
Under this condition, the wobble (swash) plate is set to the maximum stroke position.

ATC

L
RJIA3576E

3. Capacity Control
When no electric signal is sent from display and A/C auto amp. (current: OFF), high-pressure valve is M
opened by spring force.
Since suction pressure is low, it makes the suction port close and the discharge port open. Thus, crank-
case pressure becomes high as high-pressure enters the crankcase.
– The force acts around the journal pin near the wobble (swash) plate, and is generated by the pressure dif-
ference before and behind the piston.
– The drive lug and journal pin are located where the piston generates the highest pressure. Piston pres-
sure is between suction pressure Ps and discharge pressure Pd, which is close to suction pressure Ps. If
crankcase pressure Pc rises due to capacity control, the force around the journal pin makes the wobble
(swash) plate angle decrease and also the piston stroke decrease. In other words, crankcase pressure

increase triggers pressure difference between the piston and the crankcase. The pressure difference
changes the angle of the wobble (swash) plate.

AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL

OPERATION
The display and A/C auto amp. receives data from each of the sensors. The display and A/C auto amp. sends
mode door, air mix door and intake door opening angle data to the mode door motor LCU, air mix door motor
LCU and intake door motor LCU.
The mode door motor, air mix door motors and intake door motor read their respective signals according to the
address signal. Opening angle indication signals received from the display and A/C auto amp. and each of the
motor position sensors is compared by the LCUs in each door motor with the existing decision and opening
angles. Subsequently, HOT/COLD, DEF/VENT and FRE/REC operation is selected. The new selection data
are returned to the display and A/C auto amp.

RJIA1626E

TRANSMISSION DATA AND TRANSMISSION ORDER


Display and A/C auto amp. data is transmitted consecutively to each of the door motors following the form
shown in figure below.
Start:
Initial compulsory signal sent to each of the door motors.
Address:
Data sent from the display and A/C auto amp. are selected according to data-based decisions made by the air
mix door motor, mode door motor and intake door motor.
If the addresses are identical, the opening angle data and error check signals are received by the door motor
LCUs. The LCUs then make the appropriate error decision. If the opening angle data have no error, door con-
trol begins.
If an error exists, the received data are rejected and corrected data received. Finally, door control is based
upon the corrected opening angle data.
Opening angle:
Data that shows the indicated door opening angle of each door motor.
Error Check:
In this procedure, transmitted and received data are checked for errors. Error data are then compiled. The
error check prevents corrupted data from being used by the air mix door motor, the mode door motor and the
intake door motor. Error data can be related to the following symptoms.
● Malfunction of electrical frequency
● Poor electrical connections
● Signal leakage from transmission lines
● Signal level fluctuation

MAGNET CLUTCH CONTROL

RJIA1628E

When A/C switch, AUTO.ECON switch or DEF switch is pressed, display and A/C auto amp. transmits com-
pressor ON signal to BCM.
BCM sends compressor ON signal to ECM, via CAN communication.
ECM judges whether compressor can be turned ON, based on each sensor status (refrigerant-pressure sen-
sor signal, throttle angle, etc.). If it judges compressor can be turned ON, it sends compressor ON signal to
IPDM E/R, via CAN communication.
Upon receipt of compressor ON signal from ECM, IPDM E/R turns A/C relay ON to operate compressor.
When sending compressor ON signal to IPDM E/R via CAN communication, ECM simultaneously sends com-
pressor feedback signal to meter control unit via CAN communication.
Meter control unit sends compressor feedback signal to display and A/C auto amp., then, uses input compres-
sor feedback signal to control air inlet.

CAN Communication System Description NJS00034

CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only. For details, refer to LAN-26,
"CAN Communication Unit" .

Component Parts A
Fan speed control system components are:
● Display and A/C auto amp.
B
● A/C LAN system (PBR built-in mode door motor, air mix door motor and intake door motor)
● In-vehicle sensor
● Ambient sensor C
● Sunload sensor
● Intake sensor
System Operation D

RJIA3508E ATC
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed is calculated by the display and A/C auto amp. based on the
input from the PBR, in-vehicle sensor, sunload sensor, intake sensor and ambient sensor. K
When the air flow is increased, the duty ratio of the blower fan motor’s drive signal is changed at 8%/sec. to
prevent a sudden increase in air flow.
In addition to manual air flow control and the usual automatic air flow control, starting air flow control, low L
water temperature starting control and high passenger compartment temperature starting control are avail-
able.
Starting Fan Speed Control M
Start up from COLD SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
In a cold start up condition where the engine coolant temperature is below 56°C (133°F), the blower will not
operate for a short period of time (up to 150 seconds). The exact start delay time varies depending on the
ambient and engine coolant temperature.
In the most extreme case (very low ambient) the blower starting delay will be 150 seconds as described
above. After this delay, the blower will operate at low speed until the engine coolant temperature rises above
56°C (133°F), at which time the blower speed will increase to the objective speed.
Start up from usual or HOT SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
The blower will begin operation momentarily after the A/C switch is pressed. The blower speed will gradually
rise to the objective speed over a time period of 3 seconds or less (actual time depends on the objective
blower speed).

Revision: 2006 August ATC-79 2006 G35 Coupe


TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

Blower Speed Compensation


Sunload
When the in-vehicle temperature and the set temperature are very close, the blower will be operating at low
speed. The low speed will vary depending on the sunload. During conditions of low or no sunload, the blower
low speed is at duty ratio 25%. During high sunload conditions, the display and A/C auto amp. raise the blower
speed (duty ratio 49%).

Brush-less Motor
The blower motor utilizes a brush-less motor with a rotating magnet.
Quietness is improved over previous motors where the brush was

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Ambient Sensor M
The ambient sensor is attached on the ambient sensor bracket. It

which is then input into the display and A/C auto amp.

RJIA1868E

Revision: 2006 August ATC-101 2006 G35 Coupe


TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE INPUT PROCESS


The display and A/C auto amp. includes a processing circuit for the ambient sensor input. However, when the
temperature detected by the ambient sensor increases quickly, the processing circuit retards the display and
A/C auto amp. function. It only allows the display and A/C auto amp. to recognize an ambient temperature
increase of 0.33°C (0.6°F) per 100 seconds.
As an example, consider stopping for a few minutes after high speed driving. Although the actual ambient tem-
perature has not changed, the temperature detected by the ambient sensor will increase. This is because the
heat from the engine compartment can radiate to the front grille area, location of the ambient sensor.
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR AMBIENT SENSOR

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

Sunload Sensor Circuit NJS0003S

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION A
Sunload Sensor
The sunload sensor is located on the driver’s side defroster grille. It
detects sunload entering through windshield by means of a photo B
diode. The sensor converts the sunload into a current value which is
then input into the display and A/C auto amp.
C

RJIA0925E
E
SUNLOAD INPUT PROCESS
The display and A/C auto amp. also includes a processing circuit which averages the variations in detected
sunload over a period of time. This prevents drastic swings in the ATC system operation due to small or quick F
variations in detected sunload.
For example, consider driving along a road bordered by an occasional group of large trees. The sunload
detected by the sunload sensor will vary whenever the trees obstruct the sunlight. The processing circuit aver-
ages the detected sunload over a period of time, so that the (insignificant) effect of the trees momentarily G
obstructing the sunlight does not cause any change in the ATC system operation. On the other hand, shortly
after entering a long tunnel, the system will recognize the change in sunload, and the system will react accord-
ingly. H

Checking for Refrigerant Leaks NJS0004Q

Perform a visual inspection of all refrigeration parts, fittings, hoses and components for signs of A/C lubricant
leakage, damage and corrosion. A/C lubricant leakage may indicate an area of refrigerant leakage. Allow
extra inspection time in these areas when using either an electrical leak detector or fluorescent dye leak
detector (SST: J-42220).
If dye is observed, confirm the leak with an electrical leak detector. It is possible a prior leak was repaired and
not properly cleaned.
When searching for leaks, do not stop when one leak is found but continue to check for additional leaks at all
system components and connections.
When searching for refrigerant leaks using an electrical leak detector, move the probe along the suspected
leak area at 1 to 2 inches per second and no further than 1/4 inch from the component.
CAUTION:
Moving the electrical leak detector probe slower and closer to the suspected leak area will improve the
chances of finding a leak.
Checking System for Leaks Using the Fluorescent Leak Detector NJS0004R

1. Check A/C system for leaks using the UV lamp and safety goggles (SST: J-42220) in a low sunlight area
(area without windows preferable). Illuminate all components, fittings and lines. The dye will appear as a
bright green/yellow area at the point of leakage. Fluorescent dye observed at the evaporator drain open-
ing indicates an evaporator core assembly (tubes, core or expansion valve) leak.
2. If the suspected area is difficult to see, use an adjustable mirror or wipe the area with a clean shop rag or
cloth, with the UV lamp for dye residue.
3. After the leak is repaired, remove any residual dye using dye cleaner (SST: J-43872) to prevent future
misdiagnosis.
4. Perform a system performance check and verify the leak repair with an approved electrical leak detector.
NOTE:
Other gases in the work area or substances on the A/C components, for example, anti-freeze, windshield
washer fluid, solvents and lubricants, may falsely trigger the leak detector. Make sure the surfaces to be
checked are clean.
Clean with a dry cloth or blow off with shop air.
Do not allow the sensor tip of the detector to contact with any substance. This can also cause false readings
and may damage the detector.
Dye Injection NJS0004S

(This procedure is only necessary when recharging the system or when the compressor has seized and was
replaced.)
1. Check A/C system static (at rest) pressure. Pressure must be at least 345 kPa (3.52 kg/cm2 , 50 psi).
2. Pour one bottle (1/4 ounce / 7.4 cc) of the A/C refrigerant dye into the injector tool (SST: J-41459).
3. Connect the injector tool to the A/C low-pressure side service valve.
4. Start the engine and switch A/C ON.
5. When the A/C operating (compressor running), inject one bottle (1/4 ounce / 7.4 cc) of fluorescent dye
through the low-pressure service valve using dye injector tool (SST: J-41459) (refer to the manufacture’s
operating instructions).
6. With the engine still running, disconnect the injector tool from the service valve.
CAUTION:
Be careful the A/C system or replacing a component, pour the dye directly into the open system
connection and proceed with the service procedures.
7. Operate the A/C system for a minimum of 20 minutes to mix the dye with the system oil. Depending on the
leak size, operating conditions and location of the leak, it may take from minutes to days for the dye to
penetrate a leak and become visible.
8. Attach a blue label as necessary.

CHECKING PROCEDURE
To prevent inaccurate or false readings, make sure there is no refrigerant vapor, shop chemicals, or cigarette
smoke in the vicinity of the vehicle. Perform the leak test in calm area (low air/wind movement) so that the
leaking refrigerant is not dispersed.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Connect a suitable A/C manifold gauge set (SST: J-39183) to the A/C service valves.
3. Check if the A/C refrigerant pressure is at least 345 kPa (3.52 kg/cm2 , 50 psi) above 16°C (61°F). If less
than specification, recover/evacuate and recharge the system with the specified amount of refrigerant.
NOTE:
At temperatures below 16°C (61°F), leaks may not be detected since the system may not reach 345 kPa
(3.52 kg/cm2 , 50 psi).
4. Perform the leak test from the high-pressure side (compressor discharge a to evaporator inlet g) to the
low-pressure side (evaporator drain hose h to shaft seal m). Refer to ATC-137, "Components" . Perform a
leak check for the following areas carefully. Clean the component to be checked and move the leak
detected probe completely around the connection/component.
Compressor
Check the fitting of high- and low- pressure flexible hoses, relief valve and shaft seal.
Condenser
Check the fitting of high-pressure flexible hose and pipe, refrigerant pressure sensor.
Liquid tank
Check the fitting of refrigerant connection.
Service valves
Check all around the service valves. Ensure service valve caps are secured on the service valves (to pre-
vent leaks).
NOTE:
After removing A/C manifold gauge set from service valves, wipe any residue from valves to prevent any
false readings by leak detector.
Cooling unit (Evaporator)
With engine OFF, turn blower fan on “High” for at least 15 seconds to dissipate any refrigerant trace in the
cooling unit. Wait a minimum of 10 minutes accumulation time (refer to the manufacturer’s recommended
procedure for actual wait time) before inserting the leak detector probe into the drain hose.
Keep the probe inserted for at least 10 seconds. Use caution not to contaminate the probe tip with water
or dirt that may be in the drain hose.
5. If a leak detector detects a leak, verify at least once by blowing compressed air into area of suspected
leak, then repeat check as outlined above.
6. Do not stop when one leak is found. Continue to check for additional leaks at all system components.
If no leaks are found, perform steps 7 - 10.
7. Start the engine.
8. Set the A/C control as follows;
a. A/C switch: ON
b. MODE door position: VENT (Ventilation)
c. Intake door position: Recirculation
d. Temperature setting: Max. cold
e. Fan speed: High
9. Run engine at 1,500 rpm for at least 2 minutes.
10. Stop the engine and perform leak check again following steps 4
through 6 above.
Refrigerant leaks should be checked immediately after stopping
the engine. Begin with the leak detector at the compressor. The
pressure on the high-pressure side will gradually drop after
refrigerant circulation stops and pressure on the low-pressure
side will gradually rise, as shown in the graph. Some leaks are
more easily detected when pressure is high.
