Nissan Maxima: Variable voltage control system
CAUTION:
- Do not ground accessories directly to the battery terminal. Doing so will bypass the variable voltage control system and the vehicle battery may not charge completely.
- Use electrical accessories with the engine running to avoid discharging the vehicle battery.
Your vehicle is equipped with a variable voltage control system. This system measures the amount of electrical discharge from the battery and controls voltage generated by the generator.
The current sensor (A) is located near the battery along the negative battery cable. If you add electrical accessories to your vehicle, be sure to ground them to a suitable body ground such as the frame or engine block area.
Jump starting
If jump starting is necessary, see Jump starting in the In case of emergency
section of this manual. If the engine does not start by jump starting, the battery
may have to be replaced.
