SPECIAL SERVICE CAMPAIGN, EXHAUST GAS SENSOR - 1982 NON-TURBO 280ZX AND GASOLINE MAXIMA
INTRODUCTION
This bulletin describes procedures for the inspection and replacement of the exhaust gas sensor on 1982 Non-Turbo 280ZX (S130) and Gasoline Engine Maxima (910) vehicles, except those presently registered in California.
BACKGROUND
Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. has determined that the current criteria for replacement of the exhaust gas sensor should be changed to assure proper emission control. The current inspection procedure for checking the exhaust gas sensor calls for replacing the sensor if the inspection lamp on the EFI control unit goes ON and OFF five times or less during 10 seconds. Nissan has revised the inspection procedure to require that the sensor be replaced if the inspection lamp goes on and off ten times or less during 10 seconds. This revised procedure applies only to 1982 Non-Turbo 280ZX (S130) and Gasoline Engine Maxima (910) vehicles, except those presently registered in California, and is to be used both for this campaign and anytime the exhaust gas sensor is inspected.
Nissan will notify all owners of the affected vehicles by letter. They will be asked to bring their vehicle to a Nissan dealer for free inspection and, if necessary, replacement of the exhaust gas sensor. A copy of the owner's letter is shown on page EC-34 for your reference.
Nissan has undertaken this voluntary service campaign to assure that air pollution is not aggravated by its vehicles.
CHANGE TO SERVICE MANUALS
In conjunction with this service campaign, pages MA-13 and EF&EC-43 of the 1982 280ZX Service Manual and pages MA-15 and EC-13 of the 1982 Maxima Service Manual (the step which refers to counting the number of times the inspection lamp on the EFI control unit goes ON and OFF) should be revised as follows:
Make sure that inspection lamp on control unit goes on and off more than 10 times during 10 seconds.
Please correct your copies of the service manuals by hand.

All 1982 Non-Turbo 280ZX (S130) and Gasoline Engine Maxima (910) vehicles are included in this service campaign except those presently registered in California. This includes vehicles which were originally registered in California but are now registered in another state.
