    F25 35 Ground
    • Selector lever: “M1” position

    • Nissan Murano Vehicle speed: 20 km/h (12 MPH)

    600 Hz

Is the inspection result normal?

YES>>

Check intermittent incident. Refer to Intermittent Incident.

NO>>

Replace primary speed sensor. Refer to Removal and Installation.

DETECT MALFUNCTIONING ITEMS

Check the following items:

  • Harness open circuit or short circuit between ignition switch and IPDM E/R. Refer to Wiring Diagram - IGNITION POWER SUPPLY -.

  • Harness open circuit or short circuit between IPDM E/R connector terminal 61 and primary speed sensor connector terminal 3.

  • 10A fuse (No.43, located in the IPDM E/R). Refer to IPDM E/R Terminal Arrangement .

  • IPDM E/R

Is the check result normal?

YES>>

Check intermittent incident. Refer to Intermittent Incident.

NO>>

Repair or replace malfunctioning parts.
