Information
You will replace the following sensors: Crankshaft Position Sensor, Camshaft Position Sensor(s), and in some cases the Variable Timing Control Sensor(s). The service procedures are divided by engine 'family' and vehicle model (see Figure C, shown).
NOTE:
Use Service Comm to confirm the vehicle is included in this campaign before performing the following procedure.
IMPORTANT
^ There are three sensor kits associated with this campaign - one kit for each engine family (see Figure A, shown).
^ THE SENSORS IN EACH KIT ARE DIFFERENT. IT IS CRITICAL THAT EACH SENSOR BE INSTALLED IN THE CORRECT LOCATION. REFER TO FIGURE A AND THE ILLUSTRATIONS IN EACH REPAIR SECTION FOR SENSOR LOCATIONS.
^ Each new sensor (within each kit) is contained in a bag. The bag is labeled with the Nissan part number. Keep the sensor in the bag until just before it is installed. The supplier part number is molded onto the face of the sensor. This number starts with "A29-".
^ The Crankshaft and Camshaft Position Sensors in Sensor Kits P/N 23731-4M528 and 23731-6N225 look the same. To help you tell the difference between these sensors, a white paint mark was added to the Crankshaft sensor (see Figure A).
^ The old and new sensors may appear identical, therefore KEEP THEM SEPARATE.
^ When disconnecting the vehicle harness connector* from the sensor(s); first PUSH the Release Button inward, then PULL the connector back (see Figure B, shown).
NOTE:
Do NOT pull on the wires when disconnecting the connector.
* The button for this connector is green and the connector body color is green or black.
NOTE:
Do NOT pull on the wires when disconnecting the connector.
