Configuration (bcm) Nissan Pathfinder R53

Description

Vehicle specification needs to be written with CONSULT because it is not written after replacing the BCM.

The configuration requires network connection. CONSULT connects to network and then it downloads the configuration data from the server. Then CONSULT writes the Nissan Pathfinder vehicle specification to the BCM.

Refer to Work Procedure.

NOTE:

  • When replacing the BCM, always replace it with a new one.

  • To prevent damage to the BCM, perform module configuration before paring the BCM and Intelligent Key unit.

  • Module configuration must be performed before pairing the BCM and Intelligent Key unit. Once the BCM and Intelligent Key unit have been paired, portions of the configuration are locked and can no longer be changed.

  • When replacing the BCM, it is critical to follow the work procedures as detailed in the ESM.

  • For details about the network connection and operation, refer to “CONSULT Operation Manual”.

  • For configuration there is no need to “save” configuration data from the BCM. The configuration data is always generated freshly at the server and then downloaded to the CONSULT.

CAUTION:

  • Complete the procedure of “Configuration” in order.

  • If incorrect “Configuration”, incidents might occur.

  • Never perform “Configuration” except for new BCM.

Work Procedure

WRITING VEHICLE SPECIFICATION

CONSULT

  1. Ignition switch ON.

  2. Perform writing Nissan Pathfinder vehicle specification to BCM following "Automatic Configuration" procedure of "Configuration" according to CONSULT Operation Manual.
