Self-Diagnostic System: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Nissan Sentra. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Self-diagnostic system is used for diagnosing malfunctions of Electronic Concentrated Control System (ECCS) sensors and actuators. Engine Control Module (ECM) has a number of available diagnostic modes within computer. Some models have On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II) self-diagnostic capabilities.
All models have 2 diagnostic modes, with subdivisions. Before selecting any mode of self-diagnostics, always perform procedures in the BASIC TESTING article. Doing so prevents wasted time and false diagnostic results.
