APPLIED VEHICLE(S):

All 2000 and later

1999 Frontier (D22)

1999 Quest (V41)

1999 Pathfinder (R50) from VIN JN8AR07**XW350101

IF YOU CONFIRM:

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) needs to be replaced on a 2000 MY and later vehicle, or an Applied 1999 MY vehicle (see above).

ACTIONS:

^ Re-register all customer keys if the vehicle has ECM based NATS (see step 1).

^ Check ASIST for any new updates for the new ECM you're installing (see steps 2 - 4).

^ Perform the "ACCELERATOR PEDAL & THROTTLE VALVE CLOSED POSITION LEARNING" procedure (see step 5).

^ After installing the new ECM, perform the "IDLE AIR VOL LEARNING" procedure (when applicable) using CONSULT-II. See step 6.

^ For 2005 and later vehicles, enter the vehicle VIN into the new ECM (see step 7).

CAUTION:

Failure to perform all the work steps in the specified order can cause poor engine running, MIL 'ON', or vehicle emission test rejection.

IMPORTANT:

The purpose of "ACTIONS" (above) is to give you a quick idea of the work you will be performing. You MUST closely follow the entire

Service Procedure as it contains information that is essential to successfully completing this repair.

Service Procedure

Check NATS On The Vehicle

1. Check to see if the vehicle you're working on has "ECM based" NATS V2.0 or V5.0.

2019 Nissan-Datsun Altima L4-2.5L (QR25DE) Page 338

a. If the vehicle has ECM based NATS V2.0 or V5.0, it will NOT start after you install a service replacement ECM. So you'll have to

re-register all ignition keys, including spare keys with CONSULT-II and the purple NATS card. After you do this, proceed with step 2.

^ If you do not know how to re-register the keys, refer to the ESM for the NATS key re-registration procedure.

b. If the vehicle has "BCM based" NATS (instead of ECM based NATS V2.0 or V5.0), you do NOT have to re-register the ignition or

spare keys. Proceed with step 2.

Check For ECM Data Updates in ASIST

2. In ASIST, select [CONSULT Utilities] >>> [ECM/TCM Data]. Then choose Model and Model Year (see Figure 1).

3. Look for ECM Data Updates (listed by ECM P/Ns and vehicle configuration) in the top, center display panel of the ASIST screen (see Figure

1).

a. If there is not updates listed for your vehicle configuration, you do NOT have to reprogram the service replacement ECM. Proceed with

step 5.

b. If there is updates listed for your vehicle configuration, see if they apply to the service replacement ECM you're going to install. Do this

by performing step 4.

4. Select the "configuration" on the screen for the vehicle you're working on. Then confirm that your ECM is listed in the "Replaces

23710-XXXXX, -XXXXX, etc" section in the lower, center "Details" panel of the ASIST screen (see Figure 1).

a. If your ECM is listed in the "Details" panel, you must reprogram the ECM with the latest data update. After you do this, proceed with

step 5.

CAUTION:

The 1999-2000 Frontier and 1999-2000 Pathfinder have a gray CONSULT connector AND a white GST connector. Do NOT attempt to

perform the ECM Reprogramming procedure with CONSULT-II connected to the gray CONSULT connector. See the appropriate ESM

for further details if necessary.

b. If your ECM is NOT listed in the "Details" panel, you do NOT have to reprogram the ECM. Proceed with step 5.

Accelerator Pedal & Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning

5. Perform the Accelerator Pedal & Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning as follows:

a. Make sure the accelerator pedal is fully released.

b. Turn the ignition switch "ON" for 2 seconds.

c. Turn the ignition switch "OFF" for 10 seconds.

d. Turn the ignition switch "ON" for 2 seconds, then

e. Turn the ignition switch "OFF" again for 10 seconds (see Figure 2).

f. Proceed with step 6.

Perform Idle Air Volume Learning (IAVL)

NOTE:

Make sure all electrical loads are turned OFF, including A/C, defroster, radio, lights, etc. while performing the following procedures. Also,

make sure the engine cooling fans are NOT operating during the following procedures.

6. Perform the Idle Air Volume Learning procedure as follows:

a. Connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle.

b. Warm up engine and transmission to operating temperature.

c. In the [CONSULT WORK SUPPORT] mode, select [IDLE AIR VOL LEARN]. See Figure 3.

NOTE:

^ If IDLE AIR VOL LEARN is not shown as a SELECT WORK ITEM on CONSULT, the vehicle does not need the procedure.

^ In this case only, this bulletin is complete, no further action is needed.

d. Press [START] on the "IDLE AIR VOL LEARN" screen. See Figure 4.

e. Press [START] on the "WORK SUPPORT" screen to begin the Idle Air Volume Learning (IAVL) procedure. See Figure 5.

^ The IAVL procedure will take several minutes to complete.

^ CONSULT will display "Please Wait" in the center of the screen while the IAVL procedure is in process. See Figure 6.

2019 Nissan-Datsun Altima L4-2.5L (QR25DE) Page 341

f. Once the IAVL procedure is finished, proceed with step 7.

For 2005 and Later MY Vehicles ONLY: Enter VIN Into New Service Replacement ECM

7. Enter the VIN into the new service replacement ECM as follows:

a. Select [ENGINE] on the "Select System" screen. See Figure 8.
