New ICC Aiming Tool and Procedure
The new ICC radar sensor on the JX requires a new aiming tool and alignment procedure. The ICC System uses a millimeter wave sensor. It emits mm waves to detect radar reflected from a vehicle ahead. The new design was adopted because it’s less vulnerable to rain and dirt. It can also discriminate more objects and can be hidden behind the bumper fascia of the vehicle.
When performing the new alignment procedure, you will be setting a target, for adjusting the vertical and horizontal axis alignment of the radar sensor and checking results in CONSULT. It will be necessary to measure 3 different axis points when performing the aiming adjustment.
Power Window System Initialization
The following specified operations cannot be performed under the non-initialized condition:
- Auto-up operation
- Anti-pinch function
Reinitialization is necessary for normal operation of power window system If any of the following repair operations are performed:
- When control unit replaced.
- Removal and installation of regulator assembly.
- Power supply to the power window main switch, or power window motor is cut off by the removal of battery terminal or if the batteries fuse is blown.
- Disconnection and connection of power window main switch harness connector.
- Removal and installation of motor from regulator assembly.
- Operation of regulator assembly as an independent unit.
- Removal and installation of door glass.
- Removal and installation of door glass run.
Initialization Procedure
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Operate power window switch to fully open the window.
3. Hold the window up switch UP until it completely closes. After the glass stops at fully closed position, keep pulling the switch for two seconds or more.
4. Check that the AUTO-UP function operates normally.
NOTE: Note: You must perform an initialization procedure when the vehicle’s power window system has switched to fail-safe mode. However, the power window system may switch back to fail-safe control if a malfunction is still present in a power window switch or motor.
Sunroof /Moonroof Initialization
If the moonroof does not open or close automatically, use the following procedure to return moonroof operation to normal function with initialization:
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Push and hold the moonroof tilt switch forward until the moonroof stops.
3. Release the moonroof switch.
4. Press and hold the tilt up switch within six seconds.
5. The roof glass will then Tilt-Down, Slide-Close, Slide-Open, Slide-Close, Tilt-Up, Tilt-Down.
6. Release the switch: sunroof/moonroof initialization is now complete.
7. Confirm that the sunroof/moonroof operates normally.
Sunshade Initialization
If the sunshade does not open or close automatically, use the following procedure to return sunshade operation to normal:
1. Switch the vehicle ignition to the ACCESSORY or RUN mode.
2. Press and hold the sunshade close switch.
3. The sunshade will begin moving towards the close position only while the switch is continually pressed. (this disables the obstacle detection).
- The sunshade will stop for about four seconds
- The sunshade drive cable will travel in the open direction for 10 mm (.394 in.) then reverse direction and stop at the normal close position.
4. Confirm that the sunshade operates normally.
Tools
CONSULT-III plus
Telematics Communication Unit (TCU) Initialization
The TCU is OFF when delivered to the dealership and will need to be turned on during PDI.
The following CONSULT service procedures are used to set up the Infiniti Connection™ Telematics system:
- Connect the CONSULT plus VI to the vehicle.
- Launch C-III plus on the CONSULT PC.
- Select VI/MI, highlight your CONSULT plus VI, and then select Connect.
- Select Start.
NOTE: Reinsert the C-III Card Adapter with Immobilizer Card, if removed.
Select Diagnosis (One System) from the Diagnosis menu.
Select Telematics from the Group systems list buttons.
Select the Work Support tab.
Select TCU Activate Setting from the Test Items, and click Start (lower right hand button).
Select Start from the Current status page.
Select ON to change the TCU setting to turn ON the TCU.
Confirm “ON” is displayed in the Current status field, and then click on End.
Reprogramming the JX
CONSULT is being updated to handle the 30-minute IPDM E/R Timeout (Power cutoff) on the JX vehicle.
If performing reprogramming on the JX becomes necessary, CONSULT-III plus transmits “ignition timer prohibition” command to the BCM. “Ignition timer” is forbidden while BCM is carrying out stoppage judgment on CAN monitor.
When CONSULT-III plus connects, “ignition timer prohibition” command is transmitted to the BCM. IGN timer is “ignored” if CONSULT is plugged in.
New Harness Repair Tools and Connectors
The new JX vehicle will utilize some new, smaller diameter “lightweight wiring”. The new wire is used in certain locations for a “signal wire.” If any repair of the new wire becomes necessary, it will require special attention when stripping the wire to avoid cutting into the copper strands of the harness wire. The next update to the Harness Repair Kit will include a new wire stripper tool, new solder sleeve connectors and new special connectors for handling these new wires.
Seat Removal and Installation Special Tools
If it becomes necessary for a second-row seat to be removed for any reason, and it will be re-installed into the vehicle, special tools are needed. Front and rear cross braces are required that properly align the rails (to ensure slide efforts). These cross braces are to be removed AFTER the seat is torqued down into the vehicle. If a new seat is ordered, it will already include the cross braces.
