No. Component Function
1. Inside key antenna (parcel shelf)
  • Inside key antenna (parcel shelf) detects whether Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle or not, and then transmits the signal to the BCM.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
2. Front door switch RH Door switch detects door open/close condition and then transmits ON/OFF signal to BCM.
3. Power window and door lock/unlock switch RH
  • Door lock and unlock switch is integrated into the power window switch.
  • Door lock and unlock switch transmits door lock/unlock operation signal to BCM.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
4. Remote keyless entry receiver
  • Remote keyless entry receiver receives button operation signal and key ID signal of Intelligent Key and then transmits them to BCM.
  • Refer to REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY RECEIVER .
5. Horns IPDM E/R energizes the horns when the security system is activated.
6. Hood switch
  • Hood switch transmits hood open/closed signal to the IPDM E/R.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
7. Transmission range switch
  • The transmission range switch detects the selector lever position.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
8. IPDM E/R
  • IPDM E/R detects push-button ignition switch (push switch) status, and transmits push-button ignition switch status signal (CAN) to BCM.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
9. Stop lamp switch
  • Stop lamp switch detects that brake pedal is depressed, and transmits the signal to BCM.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
10. BCM
  • BCM controls INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM (ENGINE START FUNCTION), NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM-NATS [NVIS (NATS)] and VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM.
  • BCM performs the ID verification between BCM and Intelligent Key when the Intelligent Key is carried into the detection area of inside key antenna, and push-button ignition switch is pressed. If the ID verification result is OK, ignition switch operation is available.

    Then, when the ignition switch is turned ON, BCM performs ID verification between BCM and ECM. If the ID verification result is OK, ECM can start engine.

  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION for detailed installation location.
11. Combination meter
  • Combination meter transmits the vehicle speed signal to BCM via CAN communication.
  • BCM also receives the vehicle speed signal from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) via CAN communication. BCM compares both signals to detect the vehicle speed.
  • Security indicator lamp is located on combination meter.
  • Security indicator lamp blinks when ignition switch is in any position other than ON to warn that NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM-NATS [NVIS (NATS)] is on board.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
12. CVT shift selector CVT shift selector detects shift lever status, transmits detention switch signal to BCM.
13. Main power window and door lock/unlock switch
  • Door lock and unlock switch is integrated into the power window main switch.
  • Door lock and unlock switch transmits door lock/unlock operation signal to BCM.
  • Refer to COMPONENT LOCATION .
14. Front door switch LH Front door switch LH transmits door open/closed signal to the BCM.
15. Front door lock assembly LH
  • Door key cylinder switch is integrated into front door lock assembly (driver side).
  • Door key cylinder switch detects door LOCK/UNLOCK operation using mechanical key, and then transmits the operation signal to BCM.
  • Refer to FRONT DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLY (LH) .
16. Trunk lamp switch and trunk release solenoid (trunk release solenoid)
17. Push-button ignition switch Push-button ignition switch has push switch inside which detects that push-button ignition switch is pressed and then transmits ON/OFF signal to BCM. BCM changes the ignition switch position with the operation of push-button ignition switch. BCM maintains the ignition switch position status while push-button ignition switch is not operated.
18. NATS antenna amp. NATS ANTENNA AMP.
