If an applied vehicle exhibits one or more of the following symptoms: • • • MIL “ON” with DTC P0340 (Camshaft Position Sensor) stored in Self Diagnosis results, Engine stumbles momentarily during cruise condition, Engine stops running at idle, The cause of this incident may be the ignition coils. A new resistor assembly (located inside the ignition coil tube) is available to repair the described symptoms, if they should occur. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Verify that the vehicle has one or more of the symptoms listed above in the Service Information. 2. Remove all four ignition coils. Refer to the appropriate 2002 Service Manual for removal procedure of the ignition coils (page EM-26 for Altima, page EM-106 for Sentra). 3. Install the new resistor assembly in all four ignition coil tubes as follows: A. Pull the rubber boot away from the ignition coil. Then, twist and pull the ignition coil tube from the ignition coil to separate them (see Figure 1). Rubber boot Tube Ignition coil Figure 1 TP010651 B. Remove the spring from the ignition coil tube and discard. Insert the new resistor assembly into the ignition coil tube exactly as shown in Figure 2 below. C. Assemble the ignition coil tube to the ignition coil. • Rotate the tube while pressing onto the coil. • A “pop” sound will be heard when the rubber boot is seated correctly to the ignition coil. • Ensure there are no gaps and bulges between the coil body and the rubber boot (see Figure 3).

SERVICE INFORMATION If a 1999 Maxima will not start and the Security lamp is on solid with the ignition key turned to “ON”, use CONSULT or CONSULT-II with the NATS card to verify NATS DTC “ID DISCORD, IMM-ECM” is stored. If this DTC appears, use the Service Procedure in this bulletin to diagnose and repair the vehicle. For an introduction to and description of the Nissan Anti-Theft System (NATS), please refer to NTB99-063. SERVICE PROCEDURE NOTE: This procedure is described using CONSULT-II. CONSULT may also be used to perform the diagnostic procedures outlined below. However, the screens and steps will differ slightly from those shown here. 1. Install the NATS card (purple) into slot 1 of CONSULT-II (see Figure 1). Figure 2 3. Turn the ignition switch to “ON” (do not start the engine). CONSULT-II will then turn on automatically (see Figure 3). Now touch “START”. Figure 3 4. Select “NATS V2.0″ (see Figure 4).

IF YOU CONFIRM After installing a replacement transmission, it will not up shift from 1st or 2nd gear, and DTCs P0720 and P1574 are stored, DETERMINE IF The Turbine Revolution Sensor and the Vehicle Speed Sensor-AT (Revolution Sensor) are connected correctly (not switched). See the Service Procedure. ACTION Unplug (disconnect) the Turbine Revolution Sensor and the Vehicle Speed Sensor-AT (Revolution Sensor), switch them, then reconnect them correctly. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Check the 2 connectors on the rear left side (driver side) of the transmission for correct installation (see Figure 1). Make sure they’re not switched. • The connector with the white sleeve on the harness should be plugged into the upper outer sensor (Vehicle Speed Sensor-AT—Revolution Sensor). • The connector with no marking on the harness should be plugged into the lower inner sensor (Turbine Revolution Sensor). a. If the connectors are installed as described above, this bulletin does not apply. Go back to ASIST for further diagnostic and repair information. b. If the connectors are not installed as described above; switch them so they are. Reconnect them and secure the sensor harness tie-wrap into the attachment hole as shown in Figure 1. NOTE: If the harness tie-wrap is properly secured in the attachment hole, the connector with the white sleeve will not reach the lower sensor.

SERVICE INFORMATION A revised service procedure for the engine front cover/timing chain has been adopted for the GA16DE. It is no longer recommended to remove the cylinder head when removing the timing chain/front cover(s). Utilize the following steps when servicing the front cover, timing chain, guides or tensioner(s) PARTS INFORMATION Caution ^ After removing the timing chain, do not turn the crankshaft and camshaft separately or the valves will strike the piston heads. ^ When installing chain tensioners or other sliding parts, lubricate contacting surfaces with new engine oil. ^ Apply new engine oil to bolt threads and seat surfaces when installing the camshaft sprockets and the crankshaft pulley. ^ Do not spill engine coolant on the drive belts. ^ Please refer to the Service Manual for the correct tightening torque. Removal 1. Set # 1 piston at TDC on its compression stroke. 2. Remove the spark plug wires. 3. 4. Remove the rocker cover (see Figure 1). Remove the coolant reservoir tank with bracket and reposition it for clearance. 5. Support the engine with a suitable jack. 6. Remove cylinder head front mounting bracket. 7. Remove engine front mounting, then the engine front mounting bracket. 8. Remove cylinder head front cover. 9. Remove the upper chain tensioner (see Figure 2). 10. Wipe off the links of the upper timing chain next to the timing marks on the sprockets. Put paint marks on the timing chain, matching them with the timing marks on the cam sprockets and idler sprocket (see Figure 3) 11. Remove the four (4) front cover to cylinder head bolts. 12. Remove side and lower engine compartment splash covers. 13. Remove the accessory drive belts. 14. Remove the crankshaft pulley. 15. Drain coolant by removing the cylinder block drain plug and opening the radiator drain cock (Refer to MA section of the Service Manual). 16. Drain engine oil. 17. Remove intake manifold support of engine front side. 18. Remove power steering pump, pump bracket and tension rod. Position pump aside for clearance.

IF YOU CONFIRM: A MIL ON with DTC P0340 (CMP Sensor Bank 1) and/or P0345 (CMP Sensor Bank 2), and/or The engine is hard to start when warm, but starts OK when the engine is cold. NOTE: “Hard start” is engine crank time that is longer then 3 seconds. ACTIONS: • If you only have DTC P0340, replace only Bank 1 CMP (Camshaft Position) Sensor. • If you only have DTC P0345, replace only Bank 2 CMP (Camshaft Position) Sensor. • If you have both codes, replace both sensors. • For a “hard to start warm” incident, replace both sensors, even if you have no codes. Refer to sections EC and EM in the correct Service Manual for sensor replacement information. If replacement of the sensors does not solve your incident, go back to ASIST for further diagnostic and repair information.
