System Description INFOID:0000000008790071

DESCRIPTION I
During driving, the tire pressure monitoring system receives the signal transmitted from the transmitter
installed in each wheel, and turns on the low tire pressure warning lamp when the tire pressure becomes low.
The control unit (BCM) for this system has pressure judgement and self-diagnosis functions.
J
FUNCTION
When the tire pressure monitoring system detects low inflation pressure or an internal malfunction, the low tire
pressure warning lamp in the combination meter comes on. The malfunction is indicated by the low tire pres- K
sure warning lamp flashing. A CHECK TIRE PRES warning message will also be displayed in the vehicle
information display.
BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) L
The BCM (1) is shown with the lower instrument panel LH removed.
The BCM reads the air pressure signal received by the remote key-
less entry receiver, and controls the low tire pressure warning lamp
M
as shown below. It also has a self-diagnosis function to detect a sys-
tem malfunction.

TRANSMITTER

Revision: December 2012 WT-9 2013 Frontier

 TPMS
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >
A sensor-transmitter integrated with a valve is installed in each
wheel, and transmits a detected air pressure signal in the form of a
radio wave. The radio signal is received by the remote keyless entry
receiver.

WEIA0137E

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY RECEIVER

The remote keyless entry receiver is shown with the instrument
panel RH removed. The remote keyless entry receiver receives the
air pressure signal transmitted by the transmitter in each wheel.

LEIA0069E

COMBINATION METER
The combination meter receives tire pressure status from the BCM
using CAN communication. When a low tire pressure condition is
sensed by the BCM, the combination meter low tire pressure warn-
ing lamp is activated. A CHECK TIRE PRES warning message will
also be displayed in the vehicle information display. Refer to the
Owner’s Manual for additional information.

LEIA0055E

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING CHECK CONNECTOR

The tire pressure warning check connector can be grounded in order
to initiate self-diagnosis without a CONSULT. Refer to WT-13, "Self-
Diagnosis (Without CONSULT)". The tire pressure warning check
connector (1) is located behind the lower portion of the instrument
panel LH.

 PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTION A
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT B
PRE-TENSIONER" INFOID:0000000008790109

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along C
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
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted. D
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING: WT
• 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 performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
F
• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this G
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS H
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a I
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the J
battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service.
Precaution for Road Wheel INFOID:0000000008790110

K
• Genuine NISSAN aluminum wheel is designed for each type of vehicle. Use it on the specified vehicle only.
• Use Genuine NISSAN parts for the wheel nuts.
• Always adjusting the wheel balance prior to using them. For the balance weights, use Genuine NISSAN alu-
L
minum wheel weights.
• Use caution when handling the aluminum wheels, because they can be easily scratched. When removing
dirt, do not use any abrasives, a wire brush, or other items that may scratch the coating. Use a neutral deter-
gent if a detergent is needed. M
• After driving on roads scattered with anti-icing salts, wash off the wheels completely.
• When installing road wheels onto the vehicle, always wipe off any dirt or foreign substances to prevent them
from being trapped between the contact surfaces of wheel.
N
• Do not apply oil to nut and bolt threads.

BALANCING WHEELS (ADHESIVE WEIGHT TYPE)

Preparation Before Adjustment
Remove inner and outer balance weights from the road wheel. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced
adhesive tape from the road wheel.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.
• After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean all traces of releasing agent from the road
wheel.
Wheel Balance Adjustment
• If a balancer machine has an adhesive weight mode setting, select the adhesive weight mode setting and
skip Step 2. below. If a balancer machine only has the clip-on (rim flange) weight mode setting, follow Step 2.
to calculate the correct size adhesive weight.
1. Set road wheel on balancer machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the balancer machine.
2. For balancer machines that only have a clip-on (rim flange) weight mode setting, follow this step to calcu-
late the correct size adhesive weight to use. When inner and outer imbalance values are shown on the
balancer machine indicator, multiply outer imbalance value by 5/3 (1.67) to determine balance weight that
should be used. Select the outer balance weight with a value closest to the calculated value above and
install in to the designated outer position of, or at the designated angle in relation to the road wheel.
a. Indicated imbalance value × 5/3 = balance weight to be installed
Calculation example:
23 g (0.81 oz) × 5/3 (1.67) = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) ⇒ 40 g (1.41 oz)
balance weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)
NOTE:
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.
Example:
37.4 ⇒ 35 g (1.23 oz)
37.5 ⇒ 40 g (1.41 oz)
SMA054D

3. Install balance weight in the position shown.

CAUTION:
• Do not install the inner balance weight before installing
the outer balance weight.
• Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the
mating surface of the road wheel.
• When installing balance weight (1) to road wheel, set it into the
grooved area (A) on the inner wall of the road wheel as shown
so that the balance weight center (B) is aligned with the bal-
ancer machine indication position (angle) (C).
CAUTION:
• Always use Genuine NISSAN adhesive balance weights.
• Balance weights are non-reusable; always replace with
new ones.
• Do not install more than three sheets of balance weight.

two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown. A
CAUTION:
Do not install one balance weight sheet on top another.
5. Start balancer machine again. B
6. Install balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the bal-
ancer machine indication position (angle).
CAUTION:

TIRE ROTATION F
• Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals.
Refer to MA-6, "FOR USA AND CANADA : General Maintenance"

• When installing the wheel, tighten wheel nuts to the specified
torque. H
CAUTION:
• Do not include the spare tire when rotating the tires.
• When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels I
from developing any distortion.

• Be careful not to tighten wheel nut at torque exceeding the
criteria for preventing strain of disc rotor. J
• Use NISSAN genuine wheel nuts for aluminum wheels.
