Distance Sensor Alignment ➤ Nissan Pathfinder

Configuration (distance Sensor) Nissan Pathfinder 2025

Work Procedure

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

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 distance sensor.

NOTE:

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

The configuration no need to “save” configuration data from the distance sensor. 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.

WRITING VEHICLE SPECIFICATION

With CONSULT

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

NOTE:

  • Log in the network according to CONSULT guidance.

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

Side Radar Alignment Nissan Pathfinder Fifth generation

Work Procedure

  • Always perform the side radar alignment after performing the following work.

    • After removing and installing or replacing the side radar.

    • After removing and installing, replacing or repainting the rear bumper.

  • Side radar alignment conditions are following;

    • The Nissan Pathfinder vehicle speed is 30 km/h (19 MPH) or higher.

    • The objects which reflect the wave of radar is located 8 m or more away from the Nissan Pathfinder vehicle.

    • The steering wheel is straight.

NOTE:

  • The side radar alignment process is reset (back to 0%) when ignition switch is OFF before completing.

  • The side radar alignment process stops when the Nissan Pathfinder vehicle speed is 0 km/h (vehicle parked) and restarts when the alignment conditions are satisfied.

  • Timeout occurs, if the side radar alignment conditions are not satisfied for 1 hour after the side radar alignment is started.

  • The side radar irradiates radar and performs the alignment by receiving its reflected wave for certain fixed time.

  • Because of not receiving the reflected wave, the side radar alignment may stop making progress under the following environment.

    • When driving on a road with high snow banks on both sides.

    • When driving on a road that has no objects to reflect the radar waves, such as a coastline road.

    • When driving on the road that sits above the surrounding level surface, such as a road on top of a levee or on top of an earthen dam.

  • It is necessary to be connected to the internet when starting the side radar alignment, but the alignment can continue even if the connection is lost during the alignment.

  • Since CONSULT is used for side radar alignment, bring CONSULT into the Nissan Pathfinder vehicle during side radar alignment to check the progress.
