Without CONSULT-II

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Nissan Murano. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: It is better to count the time accurately with a clock.

It is impossible to switch the diagnostic mode when an accelerator pedal position sensor circuit has a malfunction.

Perform ACCELERATOR PEDAL RELEASED POSITION LEARNING .
Perform THROTTLE VALVE CLOSED POSITION LEARNING .
Start engine and warm to normal operating temperature.
Ensure all conditions under PRE-CONDITIONING are met.
Turn ignition off and wait at least 10 seconds.
Ensure accelerator pedal is fully released. Turn ignition on and wait 3 seconds.
Fully depress and fully release accelerator pedal quickly 5 times within 5 seconds. See Fig 1.
Wait 7 seconds, then fully depress accelerator pedal and hold until MIL stops blinking and stays ON (it will take about 20 seconds).
Fully release accelerator pedal within 3 seconds after MIL stays ON.
Start engine and let it idle.
Wait 20 seconds.
Quickly depress and release accelerator pedal 2 or 3 times. Ensure idle speed is 625-725 RPM (A/T) or 575-675 RPM (M/T) and ignition timing is 10-20 degrees BTDC with transmission in Park or Neutral.
If idle speed and ignition timing are not as specified, IDLE AIR VOLUME LEARNING will not be carried out successfully. Proceed as follows:
- Ensure throttle valve is fully closed.
- Check PCV valve operation.
- Ensure no vacuum leaks exist.
If problem is found, repair as necessary. If problem is not found, It may be helpful to perform TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS - SPECIFICATION VALUE. See TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES article. If engine stalls or idle speed fluctuates, repair cause of condition and repeat procedure.
