With Manufacturer's Scan Tool

CAUTION:
Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to. SRS wiring harnesses are covered with yellow insulation tape either just before the harness connectors or for the complete harness, for easy identification.

Do not attempt to repair, splice or modify the SRS wiring harness. If the harness is damaged, replace it with a new one.

Keep ground portion clean.




DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using "AIR BAG" warning lamp, "SEAT BELT" warning lamp and/or CONSULT. The reading of these results is accomplished using one of two modes - "User mode" and "Diagnosis mode".
The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system malfunction through the operation of the "AIR BAG" warning lamp and/or "SEAT BELT' warning lamp.
The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part. The mode applications for the "AIR BAG" warning lamp, "SEAT BELT' warning lamp and CONSULT are as follows:

DIAGNOSIS MODE FOR CONSULT

SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]
A current Self-diagnosis result (also indicated by the number of warning lamp flashes in the Diagnosis mode) is displayed on the CONSULT screen in real time. This refers to a malfunctioning part requiring repairs.

SELF-DIAG [PAST]
Diagnosis results previously stored in the memory are displayed on the CONSULT screen. The stored results are not erased until memory erasing is executed.

TROUBLE DIAG RECORD
With TROUBLE DIAG RECORD, diagnosis results previously erased by a reset operation can be displayed on the CONSULT screen.




ECU DISCRIMINATED NO.
The diagnosis sensor unit for each vehicle model is assigned with its own, individual classification number. This number will be displayed on the CONSULT screen, as shown below. When replacing the diagnosis sensor unit, refer to the part number for the compatibility. After installation, replacement with a correct unit can be checked by confirming this classification number on the CONSULT screen.
For NISSAN MODEL R50, the diagnosis sensor unit classification numbers assigned are A531 (Models with side air bag) and A52F (Models without side air bag).
