FAIL-SAFE

Engine Control System

Engine operating condition in fail-safe mode
Fail safe mode		Nissan Sentra Vehicle behavior
Device fix mode		This mode fixes the electric IVT motor and the EVT control solenoid valve in the reference position. The intake manifold runner control valve motor is turned OFF (intake manifold runner control valve opens).
Combustion control mode	Stratified charge combustion control at starting	No stratified charge combustion at starting (cold start).
	Idle speed control	Stops feedback control of idle speed and controls with specified speed.
	Recovery speed control at decelerating	Stops recovery speed control by the fuel cut at decelerating and controls with specified speed.
	Idle neutral control	Stops idle neutral control.
Others		ECM stops the electric valve timing control. (The camshaft returns to the position of most retard angle.)

Idle Start/Stop System

When a DTC is detected, the start/stop indicator lamp blinks slowly and the idle start/stop system operation is prohibited.

When ECM detects error while operating the idle start/stop system, ECM restarts the engine.
