Diagnosis Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Nissan Murano. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to WIRING DIAGRAM .

  1. CHECK PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT SIGNAL (PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH)

    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect push-button ignition switch connector M208 and IPDM E/R connector E119.
    3. Check voltage between push-button ignition switch connector M17 terminal 8 and ground.
      Push-Button Ignition Switch Ground Voltage
      (Approx.)
      Connector Terminal
      M208 8 - Battery voltage

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES 

    GO TO STEP 3  .

    NO 

    GO TO STEP 2  .

  2. CHECK PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH CIRCUIT (BCM)

    1. Disconnect BCM connector M18.
    2. Check continuity between BCM connector M18 terminal 1 and push-button ignition switch connector M208 terminal 8.

  4. CHECK PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH CIRCUIT (IPDM E/R)

    1. Disconnect BCM connector M18.
    2. Check continuity between IPDM E/R connector E119 terminal 38 and push-button ignition switch connector M208 terminal 8.
      IPDM E/R Push-Button Ignition Switch Continuity
      Connector Terminal Connector Terminal
      E119 38 M208 8 Yes
    3. Check continuity between IPDM E/R connector E119 terminal 38 and ground.
      IPDM E/R Ground Continuity
      Connector Terminal
      E119 38 - No

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES 

    Replace IPDM E/R. Refer to REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .

    NO 

    Repair or replace harness or connectors.

  5. CHECK PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH GROUND CIRCUIT

    Check continuity between push-button ignition switch connector M208 terminal 4 and ground.

    Push-Button Ignition Switch Ground Continuity
    Connector Terminal
    M208 4 - Yes

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES 

    GO TO STEP 6  .

    NO 

    Repair or replace harness or connectors.

  6. CHECK PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH

    Refer to COMPONENT INSPECTION .

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES 

    Refer to INTERMITTENT INCIDENT .

    NO 

    Replace push-button ignition switch. Refer to REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
