Nissan Tiida C11. Manual - part 1082

MWI-18

< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS >

METER SYSTEM

The distance to empty indication provides the driver with an estimation of the distance that can be driven
before refueling. The distance to empty is calculated using signals from the fuel level sensor unit (fuel remain-
ing), ECM (fuel consumption) and vehicle speed signals from the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

JOURNY TIME

The travel time since last reset is displayed.

AVERAGE FUEL CONSUMTION

Average fuel consumption indication is calculated using vehicle speed signals from the ABS actuator and elec-
tric unit (control unit) and fuel consumption information from the ECM.

AVERAGE SPEED

The average speed mode can be selected to display the average speed since last reset. The indications are
calculated using vehicle speed signals from the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE

The combination meter indicates the outside air temperature calculated by the temperature signal received
from the ambient sensor. 
The indicated temperature is not readily affected by engine heat. It changes only when one of the following
conditions is present.
• The temperature detected by the ambient sensor is lower than the indicated temperature
• The vehicle speed is greater than 20 km/h (13 MPH)

(This is to prevent the indicated temperature from being affected by engine heat during low-speed driving.)

• The ignition switch has been turned to the OFF position for more than 3.5 hours. (The engine is cold.)
When the ambient air temperature falls below 3

°

C (37

°

F), the display starts flashing. Approximately 20 sec-

onds later, only “

°

C” flashes.

NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with auto A/C, the ambient sensor signal is shared with the front air control. The combi-
nation meter is notified of the signal sharing via the auto A/C sense circuit.

Diagnosis Description

INFOID:0000000001374681

SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE

• Self-diagnosis can check for continuity between meter control circuit and each meter (speedometer, tachom-

eter and fuel gauge).

• Self-diagnosis can check for odo/trip meter and information display segment, low-fuel level warning lamp,

low water temperature indicator lamp, and high water temperature warning lamp.

NOTE:
This combination meter has no capability to perform on-board data checking and CONSULT type active tests
as seen in other Nissan combination meters. For additional combination meter diagnostic functions refer to

MWI-22, "CONSULT-III Function (METER/M&A)"

.

OPERATION PROCEDURE

1.

Turn ignition switch OFF.

2.

While pressing the odo/trip meter switch (1), turn the ignition
switch ON.

3.

Press and release the odo/trip meter switch at least 3 times.
(Within 7 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON.)

4.

All the segments on the odo/trip meter, and simultaneously the
low-fuel warning lamp indicator illuminates. At this time, the uni-
fied meter control unit is turned to self-diagnosis mode.
NOTE:
• Check combination meter power supply and ground circuit

when self-diagnosis mode of combination meter does not
start. Replace combination meter if normal. Refer to 

MWI-94,

"Removal and Installation"

.

• If any of the segments is not displayed, replace combination

meter. Refer to 

MWI-94, "Removal and Installation"

.
