Reading and erasing GU Patrol fault codes

[YNOT]

Infomation Courtesey of Repco Autotech Encyclopedia 2006

NOTE; This information does not apply to 4.8 litre models.

Fault Codes

The 4 digit Fault Codes are displayed in two parts as flashes of the Check Engine Lamp.

The first part represents the first two digits of the fault code.

These are displayed as 0.6 second flashes.

The second part displays the second two digits of the fault code.

These are displayed as 0.3 second flashes.

There is a 0.9 second pause between the first and second parts of the code.

There is a 2.1 second gap between separate codes of different value.

Multiple codes will flash in order of numerical value, from lowest to highest.

Fault Code Erasure

Fault Code Erasure can be carried out with a Compatible Scan Tool or manually.

Manual Erasure:

1. Carry out Fault Code Extraction.
2. While the Fault Codes are being displayed, bridge Diagnostic Connector terminals 1 and 8.
3. Wait at least two seconds.
4. Disconnect the bridge between Diagnostic Connector terminals 1 and 8.
(This will erase the Fault Codes from ECM memory)

Should the above procedure fail to erase the Fault Codes;

Disconnect the battery negative cable or remove power to the ECM for 24 hours.

Ensure that other memory codes are known prior to performing this procedure.

Fault Code Extraction

Fault Code Extraction can be carried out with a Compatible Scan Tool or manually.

Manual Extraction:

1. Switch ignition ON.
2. Confirm the Check Engine Lamp illuminates.
(The system will be in Diagnostic Test Mode I.)
3. Bridge Diagnostic Connector terminals 1 and 8.
Confirm the Check Engine Lamp extinguishes.
4. Wait at least two seconds.
5. Disconnect the bridge between Diagnostic Connector terminals 1 and 8.
(The system will be in Diagnostic Test Mode II.)
6. Read Fault Codes as flashes of the Check Engine Lamp.

Do not switch ignition off during this procedure or the system returns to Diagnostic Test Mode I.

Hi all,

I have a Nissan Patrol 2008 ST and my OBDII connector doesn't have pin 1 connected. I only have 4,5,6,7,8,9,12,13,14,16.

Does anybody know how to do this with the later Patrols???

Thanks

[Maarten]

Thank you, Tony. This is much appreciated info.

Great info YNOT. Don't need it now but certainly great for future reference. Thanks

[mav345]

hi are the terminals numbered left to right across the top and then left to right across the bottom?
cheers mav

Hi guys, I know this is an old thread but I'm hoping someone can still help me, or point me to another thread that is more helpful

I have a 2000/1 GU TB45E Petrol Auto Patrol.

I want to reset the Engine light so I can recheck for error codes. I have looked at this post and when I went to find my diagnostic connector I realised mine is different to the picture shown above.

Mine looks like

68371

I have done a scan of my Gregory's Manual showing the two different connectors. The pink box shows what I have

68372

What pins do I use to bridge so the engine light resets. What do you use to bridge?

I tried 1 and 8 but nothing happened. I tried 1 and 7 going by the colour of the wires and blew a fuse.

All help appreciated

Greg

gwmbox try this page. It may help out a bit.http://nissanhelp.com/diy/common/nissan_engine_codes_read_2.php
The plug you have is a consult plug and not OBDII style which i would have thought that year would have had.
