Nissan Murano (Z52) 2015-2024 Service Manual / Engine / Engine Control System :: Vq35de / Dtc/circuit Diagnosis / Trouble Diagnosis - Specification Value

Description

ECM input/output valve when the engine control system operates normally.

NOTE:

The SP value is indicated when “DISPLAY TYPE” is “Line Graph”.
