System Description
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
- The NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM-NATS [NVIS (NATS)] prevents the engine from being started by Intelligent Key whose ID is not registered to the vehicle (BCM). It has higher protection against auto theft involving the duplication of mechanical keys.
- The ignition key integrated in the Intelligent Key cannot start the engine. When the Intelligent Key battery is discharged, the NVIS (NATS) ID verification is performed between the transponder integrated with Intelligent Key and BCM via NATS antenna amp. when the Intelligent Key backside is contacted to push-button ignition switch. If the verification results are OK, the engine start operation can be performed by the push-button ignition switch operation.
- Locate the security indicator lamp and apply the anti-theft system equipment sticker that warns that the NVIS (NATS) is on-board the model.
- Security indicator lamp always blinks when the power supply position is any position other than ON.
- Up to 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered (including the standard ignition key) upon request from the owner.
- Specified registration is required when replacing ECM, BCM or Intelligent Key.
- For initialization and registration of Intelligent Keys, refer to CONSULT Immobilizer mode and follow the on-screen instructions.
- Possible symptom of NVIS (NATS) malfunction is "Engine cannot start". The engine can not be started because of other than NVIS (NATS) malfunction, so start the trouble diagnosis according to Work Flow .
- If ECM other than genuine part is installed, the engine cannot be started. For ECM replacement procedure,
If ECM other than genuine part is installed, the engine cannot be started. For ECM replacement procedure, Refer to ECM : Removal & Installation (PR25DD) or ECM : Removal & Installation (KR20DDET).
PRECAUTIONS FOR KEY REGISTRATION
- The ID registration is a procedure that erases the current NVIS (NATS) ID once, and then reregisters a new ID. Therefore before starting the registration operation, collect all registered Intelligent Keys from the customer.
- When registering the Intelligent Key, perform only one procedure to simultaneously register both ID [NVIS (NATS) ID and Intelligent Key ID].
SECURITY INDICATOR LAMP
- Warns that the vehicle is equipped with NVIS (NATS).
- Security indicator lamp always blinks when the power supply position is any position other than ON.NOTE: Because security indicator lamp is highly efficient, the battery is barely affected.
ENGINE START OPERATION WHEN INTELLIGENT KEY IS CONTACTED TO PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH
- When brake pedal is depressed while selector lever is in the P (Park) position, BCM activates NATS antenna amp. that is located behind push-button ignition switch.
- When Intelligent Key (transponder built-in) backside is contacted to push-button ignition switch, BCM starts NVIS (NATS) ID verification between BCM and Intelligent Key (transponder built-in) via NATS antenna amp.
- When the NVIS (NATS) ID verification result is OK, buzzer in combination meter sounds and BCM transmits the result to ECM.
- BCM turns ACC relay ON and transmits ignition power supply ON signal to IPDM E/R.
- IPDM E/R turns the ignition relay ON and starts the ignition power supply.
- BCM detects that the selector lever position is P (Park) or N (Neutral).
- BCM transmits starter request signal to IPDM E/R and turns the starter relay in IPDM E/R ON if BCM judges that the engine start condition* is satisfied.
- IPDM E/R turns the starter control relay ON when receiving the starter request signal.
- Power supply is supplied through the starter relay and the starter control relay to operate the starter motor.
- When BCM receives feedback signal from ECM indicating that the engine is started, BCM transmits a stop signal to IPDM E/R and stops cranking by turning off the starter motor relay. (If engine start is unsuccessful, cranking stops automatically within 5 seconds.)
*: For the engine start condition, refer to the table "POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OPERATION" below.
POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OPERATION
The power supply position changing operation can be performed with the following operations:
- When an Intelligent Key is within the detection area of inside key antenna and when Intelligent Key backside is contacted to push-button ignition switch, it is equivalent to the operations below:
- When starting the engine, the BCM monitors under the engine start conditions:
- Brake pedal operating condition
- Selector lever position
- Vehicle speed
Vehicle speed: less than 4 km/h (2.5 MPH)
